The sound effect used in the famous Psycho shower scene was created by composer Bernard Herrmann using violins played with extreme intensity and a rapidly repeated stabbing motion to mimic the sounds of a knife attack. The effect can be found in the original soundtrack of the movie or various compilations of film scores.

Why does your voice sound different in the living room than in the shower?

The acoustics of the room can affect how sound waves travel and are perceived. In a small and enclosed space like a shower, sound waves are reflected more, creating a louder and more resonant sound. In a larger and more open space like a living room, sound waves dissipate more, resulting in a softer and less resonant sound.


How does resonance work when you sing in the shower?

The bathroom is closed and sometimes small,as you sing the sound waves hit the walls more frequently causing the wall to vibrate,since walls are parallel to each other.the reflected sound hit each other,there by causing the wall to vibrate at your natural frequency and louder sound is transmitted.


How does the Doppler Effect effects sound?

The Doppler Effect causes the frequency of sound waves to change when the source of the sound or the listener is in motion. When a sound source is moving towards the listener, the frequency appears higher (higher pitch), and when moving away, the frequency appears lower (lower pitch). This effect is commonly experienced when a car passes by and the pitch of the sound changes.
