High Frequency "BEEP BEEP" sound
Been noticing every few minutes there's a really distinctive high frequency beeping sound and It's really annoying. Does anyone know what this is and how I turn it off?

It is the upgrade of a house that produces a bell like sound.

How do you turn it off? it's really annoying, I thought it was a bug.

I've noticed you don't hear it as much when you're zoomed out. All the sounds get louder the more you zoom in.

I like that sound. I miss the Simcity sound though when a building was being built.

Try pausing the game and placing a bunch of nice services around a low-level ghetto.

*unpause*

I don't think Toby is talking about the ding, because that beep beep is GD annoying. The ding is a pleasant ding sound. the beep beep Toby is talking about is if you zoom in to an area with commercial you will hear that damn sound constantly.

I also want to get rid of the seagulls. :P

FYI I turned ambient sound off and it is still has the beep and the seagulls. Its the main sound unfortunately and you lose everything else when you turn that off. Ambient only seems to be the zoomed out sound of noise pollution and water rushing through rivers.

Ok I just checked. I zoomed into my commercial zone and I don't hear it, but I had some offices nearby and they were making that noise because I zoomed into a strictly office area, without commercial and there it was. Beep beep beep, high frequency.

Lots of little bugs in this game but its still awesome.

Turning off ambient causes that stupid beep beep to go away. Yay. You lose noise pollution too which is good, but the seagulls, and livestock are part of the main sound system. Ugh. lol
