Who is Christian Doppler?

Christian Andreas Doppler was an Austrian mathematician and physicist. He is celebrated for his principle – known as the Doppler effect – that the observed frequency of a wave depends on the relative speed of the source and the observer. He used this concept to explain the color of binary stars.

Leslie Tremolo Unit

So i pulled the rotating Leslie out of an organ and i want to be able to hook it up with my guitar amps. It has an 8" speaker thats 35 watts, i think. Anyone know were i could get a hold of something that would convert a large signal down to something like that? I also need a power supply and a way to control the 2 speeds that it can run at.

Can someone help me, i can also send u copies of my songs so u can hear my "attempt" at creating a chorus sound.

Name that sound

Hey,
I'm trying to find a sound effect. I know exactly how it sounds but I don't know what it's name is. So I just wonder whether anyone would recognise what it is if I describe it :)

They use this sound effect a lot in documentaries... particularly kind of chilling murder documentaries etc when they reveal something spin chilling..
