Attention all that are going soon to see a cricket match

Hi everyone...

As many of you probably know Legend Master is making a cricket game called The Cricket Project.

He is having some trouble gathering sounds for the crowd during the game. He suggests that the only solution is to get people record sounds from real games at the ground, viewing the game live at the ground.

So I would and I'm sure LM would appriciate if people post crowd sounds with a description of what is going on...

I'm sure the common ones that are needed are

Common atmosphere (one for every nation is possible)

Big wicket for home team (one for every nation is possible)

Normal wicket for home team (one for every nation is possible)

Boundary (one for every nation is possible)

Away loss of wicket (almost utter silence)

Big run chase (one for every nation is possible)

This being said, any crowd sound would be good as long as u provide a description.

Current clips:

India in England

Indians shouting "India" at Lords

Indians chanting "Bharat Army" at Oval

Since crowd sounds are hard to come by: maybe someone, or a group of people can imitate crowd sounds by each recording sounds of general hubub then playing them over not in perfect time and adding reverberations (someone tell me if what I said made sense )

These are the ones I would like...people can get an idea of what they sound like by watching matches.

These are the ones used for all...but I think volume should be manipulated depending on loudness volume I give.

General - winning (I know i should neva say that)
General - losing
Home wicket
Away wicket
In the air
Home dropped catch
Home boundary
Away boundary
Bouncer, or play and miss (Ooooo)
The laugh after an LBW shout is turned down.

"Barmy Army"
Poor singing of Jerusalem

Australia - 4

"NO-BALL" - to Murali and Botha
"You are a wanka"
"Your goin home in the back of a divvy van"
"10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 yeeeeeeh" (mexican wave)
"Tits out for the boys" when a hot chick walks down the aisle."
"Aussie aussie aussie"

West Indies - 2 when losing, 3 general, 4.5 when winning

Carribean music

India - 5 when winning, or general...almost silence when losing

Slightly riduclous: 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, YAY.
"Jeetega to jeetega ; india jeetega"

Pakistan - 4.5 when winning, 4 general, 2 when losing

"Pakistan Zindabad"

New Zealand - 3

Sri Lanka/Bangladesh/Kenya - 3

Other (not much sound)

I have an idea for crowd sounds and that is that the two sounds from the playing countries are played ontop of each other during a match.

The crowd don't shout "WAY!!!" when a catch is possible. They shout "YEAH!!!" then realise it's dropped.

Yh ur prob right

Wouldn't this topic correspond with TCP forum as opposed to the Cricket Chat?

Well, crowd sounds are hard to get, so i suppose i went to this forum because more ppl visit this one...so there is more chance of getting crowd noises from a live game

"BARMY ARMY!!!" needs to be there for England games !

But we need people to record them from games and send em in...I don't think there will b copyright issues...

Well if you're recording it yourself, you own the copyright (not a legal copyright, but probably more like an 'artist's right'). So the only way you can have copyright issues is if someone volunteers a sound and then sues you of using it illegally.

If it's being recorded from a game on TV, then the copyright would technically remain with the TV company.

But if someone goes to the game themselves and records crowd noise, there would be no copyright issues.

I have a video with crowd noises i took, ill have a looksy

You do get some BOOO!!!!!

by "WAY!!", u mean the jeer when an opposition fielder drops a catch, right.

Actually, the crowd shout "HOORAY!!!" when an opposition player drops a catch.
