Following the release of Dump2Wave tool some members of Citrix community have been asking me to provide some interesting sound fragments from dump files. I was also particularly interested in catching voices from the past: embedded fragments of human voice. So I recorded my “Hello” message, played it by Media Player and then saved a process dump. Then I converted the dump to CD-quality wave file and saved interesting sound fragments from it (to conserve space - the original wave file was 76Mb).

To listen to these fragments you can download wave files from the following location:

DumpSounds.zip (8Mb)

Here is the description of what I heard in these wave files:

- dump1.wav

• violin
• aliens
• train sound
• Hello

- dump2.wav

• electric guitar
• signals from cosmos

- dump3.wav

• Morse code alphabet

- dump4.wav

• helicopter

- dump5.wav

• horn
• some interesting noise and fragments of electronic music

 Enjoy

Of course, you can convert kernel memory dumps to wave files and hear voices from kernel space too…
