Wow, the last time I posted here was many moons ago. Feels like the BC community has been going on forever now... I still remember the days of BC Universe forums. :D
Anyway, I'm looking for a very specific sound effect from TNG, namely the incoming hail beeping sound which comes from the tactical console. I thought it would make a good incoming message tone for my mobile phone and have been looking for a good, clean sample of this sound ever since. Before anyone mentions it, yes I have Googled it. No-one seems to have ripped this particular sound. I'm not totally hopeless at sound editing, so if anyone can suggest a TNG episode with the time index where I can record a good, clean sample of the sound (by that I mean as little background noise as possible), I would be very greatfull.
Thanks in advance for any help! :)

the Generations soundtrack has a selection of clean TNG sound effects

Thanks for the suggestion. :) There is the distress call sound on that one which isn't a million miles away from what I'm looking for. Would be great if I could find the incoming message sound from the TNG series though.

I know there's another album with TOS sound effects I wouldn't be surprised if there's a TNG one out there somewhere.

Try these man. 2 different variations on the TNG hail sound.

There's an episode, I think involving the Shelliak, where Picard paces around the bridge while that sound plays in the background while he checks the dust on the plaque etc, funny scene, and a good source for that sound.

Thanks for the tip Bren! That episode was "Ensigns of Command" if I recall correctly? I'll have a go with my sound editor. :)
