-> comments on 3.1 <-

(~source perception) the samples make think about familiar & real objects - make think about klaxons & bells

(~ feedback degree +1) hello it's me you have a message

-> comments on 3.2 <-

(~ feedback degree -1) hello ! something's very wrong - danger !

(~ feedback degree 0) time's up - phone ringing to bring attention - programmable clock - schedule alarm

(~ feedback degree +1) it's ready you've got a response - hello !

(~source perception) classical instrument noises

 -> conclusions <-

Category 3.1 brings together highly realistic samples -> realistic / non realistic samples is a very important distinction, much more important than any profile infos.

Difficult to conlude anything about category 3.2....
