[Dream] revere-engineering onomonpoeia

[Mark]

May I suggest that using words phonetically to describe a sound may
not be the best way to get useful help in trying to re-create that
sound??   Asking how to reproduce an effect that have an established
name is one thing, but asking how to make that "manamana doo doo de
doo" sound, especially on an international list, is probably a bad
idea.  I think it would be much better if people posted short samples
of the sounds that they are talking about.  I'm sure everyone here
can record digital audio, and this list has an ftp site.
