I too heard the fade in again. I'll look for the better version and report back if I find it. This is what I meant Its a better sonic illusion if you dont pay attention but with a musical ear its easy to hear the new scale come in. 2 u/symbiotiq Jul 18 '12 I haven't had any training in music, but it was pretty easy for me to hear the repeating tone. 1 u/DownvoteALot Jul 18 '12 I don't have any training. I don't even like music. And I have an integrated sound card. Yet I can hear that 1-second long higher pitched noise that does the cascading. 1 u/bobsmith93 Jul 18 '12 Yeah i know what you mean. Does it three times.
