Hmmm... I didn't know this. I had been wondering if this had anything to do with Sapphire Falls. It is opening across the street soon.

It has everything to do with that neighborhood and whatnot and the city ordinances Orlando has implemented.
Even with a smaller roar this ride is going to be amazing, again.
I believe the back end will be more or less silent now and the front half will have a slightly smaller roar because of Sapphire Falls.

Did some of you honestly not put onboard audio + filled track together until just now? I'm sure Universal will audio engineer some roaring noises into the ride profile that can be heard by pedestrian traffic.
As much as I loved the noise in the parks, staying in Royal Pacific earlier in the year (at Grad Night time), the roar from Hulk got pretty tiresome inside your room.

The Hulk regularly ran much later with things like grad bash and special events. There is no ordinance for Hulk.
On-board audio is not meant to be heard by pedestrians. When is the last time you heard the music from CA Screamin, Rip Ride Rock-It, etc.? Speakers placed right next to riders' ears is not supposed to be so loud you can hear it from sidewalks below.
I have no idea what the current restrictions on Hulk are, I just know that back when I was in entertainment production we had to shut down the Hulk after a certain time during after hours special events because of noise.
In what particular part of my post did I mention that Universal would use onboard audio as a solution for sound engineering the pathways? Even Cedar Point does this on Top Thrill Dragster.
I remember riding Hulk late at night a few times so probably HHN, but can't really remember too many other times I've seen/heard it run late.
When I heard about the track being replaced the first thing I thought was that that the roar was going to be downplayed. I love it in park but you can pretty clearly hear it in your room at Cabana Bay and Royal Pacific even with the increased distance and barriers compared to Sapphire Falls. Put me down for mixed emotions on this one.

Could not disagree more. This is why I love to stay at RPR, most preferably with a view of it.

Yep, and even greenlit projects can end up not actually happening (See POP Century: Early Years for an example)
That was the 9/11 Orlando aftermath. Let's hope that never happens again...
