I found some Sonic R sound effects, and weeded out the ones I thought sounded usable. Let me know what you think?

Includes:
•Ring
•Jump
•Skid
•Splash
•Spindash Charge
•Spindash Release

maybe more, having trouble remembering.

Thanks for posting, however they sound incredibly dirty!
Are they directly ripped or have been compressed?

The waves were saved as 16 Bit 22KHz but they're only 8 bits in quality. That probably accounts for the "dirt." All of them except the water splash are just recorded Genesis FM sounds.

I didn't rip them, I just found them on a website. :P

I attempted to rip sounds from a .cdi of Sonic Adventure that I had lying around, but I couldn't really figure it out.

Comment on the newer games' sounds :

They're either recorded off unmodified MD hardware(sound like shit) or taken from emulator... the goes for sounds sounding like classic sonic ones not something new and unheard in MD games.
reatime synthesis would be the nicest thing, but I don't think one will find the CPU time, nor is up to writing a synthesizer (if customizing one existing is not an option).

Okay, this isn't from one of the older games mentioned, but it was clearly done in vein of them. It's the ring sound effect from the end of the Needlemouse teaser, ripped directly from my internal audio:

:D?

Sounds good to me.

Playing my clip a little louder in Audacity I noticed I got a tiny bit of extra sound at the beginning. I (or someone) should probably fix that. ;P

[Metal-Geo]

The 'dun' sound (echo?) pretty much goes right through the first half of the entire file. Someone's gonna have to play with the EQs a little to get that away.

I recall reading in an interview relating to this trailer that Sega still has the high quality SFX that were down sampled to make the ones in the game.

What I'm getting at is that the Ring SFX is probably still the same one as it always was. Also, there's a possibility that they might be used in Needlemouse, from which they could probably be ripped.

I remember certain sound effects from Sonic R being pretty ear-splitting, even straight from the game's audio files. I had the version that shipped without music too, so it was all too obvious during play as well.

I see no problem with using the "SEGA" scream from one of the Collections though. Even Post-Sonic Adventure it was clearly used for nostalgia and is quite probably the same recording they used for the Genesis games with less artifacting.

To see how it would turn out, I did a simple attempt of the "SEEGAA" sound effect.

SEEEEGGAAAAA

More "pure voice" than the previous remaster, which was more synthy - not that I think it's bad (the idea is pretty neat), but I figured I'd at least throw something like this out there with the lot.

The notes are all wrong. It should be G-E, not D-A as you posted. And the feel of the voice, while soothingly ethereal, is jarringly different from the original. In fact, I bet if you sat down a long time Sonic player in front of a TV screen, put a controller in his hand, and showed the animated SEGA logo from Sonic 2 while playing your version instead, the player would be so surprised by the change that the controller would fly out of his hands.

Ah, fixed the notes, but I dunno about the sound of the choir itself. Of my choices (Altos, Basses, Boys, Sopranos and Tenors) I thought this (Altos) sounded best for it. Are the constinents (or however you spell) too slow, and it needs to be a bit faster, or more staccato-y?

I think you just need to have multiple choir voices singing at once. Sopranos + Altos may do the trick.
