Beware you may have to rename the older siren files (HORN2,HORN3,HORN4,HORN5) due to them being prior to an LFS update that introduced actual siren sounds.

Here you have a pack with four classic sirens from Federal Signal, with the oldest (PA-5) being in production from the 1960's. The newest one (PA-300) is actually still in production today, but the one in this pack is an older model with slightly different tones to the new ones sold these days.
I have included one or two 'manual siren' functions with each of the sirens, which is a kind of bonus that i figured out how to get working ingame. Those arent meant to be used normally and only if none of the other tones gets the attention of the road users while on a call, and as such is placed on HORN3/HORN2 which are actually just a normal horn on the servers.
The ones with a HORN3 manual tone are best used with a HORN4-HORN3-HORN4 command cycle since in real life you just tap/hold a button which makes that tone (HORN3) until you let go of the button again (back to HORN4). Eventually you can look up the models on Youtube for a demonstration.
Again i gotta remind you that HORN3+HORN2 is not a siren on the servers, so they are really only meant to play around with outside the public roads or used on call for a very short time to get attention from someone who havent noticed you. If you wish to use them a lot when on call, you should switch them around with one of the HORN5-HORN4 tones.

Note that there are a few minor issues with a couple of the sounds, that unfortunately could not be fixed. It is however bearable.

--> #1 Federal Signal Vama siren <--
(Due to the special start of the wail tone, it will loop weirdly after a certain amount of loops. This is a limit to LFS sound files and we'll have to live with it. Alternatively swap around HORN5 and HORN4 so you have a perfectly looping tone on the main siren slot)
(2017-01-04 19:19)Ras Wrote: This is a requested siren that i've made some time ago. It has a flaw in the audio, which is a background noise. It was unavoidable due to the real life recording and you shouldn't notice it most of the time during gameplay, especially while in chase and such.
I present to you, two new sirens that in a way are very similar, but still not the same. They have become very popular within British and European countries in recent years. You may very well recognise them from real world emergency vehicles. Now available in LFS!

(2012-12-22 19:14)Ras Wrote: As soon as i saw the new insim update, i went to make some new alarm sounds for the calls. They are all made from real fire pagers.
Contains:
UK Fire Service Pager - Used by many fire services in the UK.
Swissphone RE629 - USA Pager.
Niros 8008 - Pager used in Denmark.

jeg har brugt dine sirener et stk tid nu. og må sige at det har du klaret mega godt.
tror ikke jeg har hørt en så god dansk sirene i noget spil faktisk (hvor de er ret sjældne i forvejen).
10/10 and good job on the sirens from me.

I've been using your sirens for a while now.don't think I've heard such a good Danish siren in any game actually (where they are quite rare in advance).10/10 and good job on the sirens from me.

if you edit this part of the fxo file to black. that governs the plastic on fxo.
this way it can look more sort of real with coloring,
but its a dds so im aware it would be strictly optional to use.
just thought i bring that in too,in case you did not know.
