Feature Request: Preview Mount Sounds & Run - (Anyone have Evergloam Indrik, Celestial Ram?)

The Evergloam Indrik is out today and it's gorgeous! BUT...
Some said the sounds it makes are annoying - different from the event indriks. Is there any way to preview sounds?* Or would anyone who has it be kind enough to make a video of sounds and running?

(I'm also wondering about the Celestial Ram sounds, if anyone has that.)

*I'm pretty sure there is not. Feature request: It would be helpful if you could run (in place) and jump to preview animations and sounds for Crown purchases. Or even have them up on the PTS.

EDIT: since I couldn't find any existing video (and everyone's verbal descriptions are quite varied and, um, colorful) I decided to make it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxAqHk6bAic

IMO, it's not bad. It's actually pretty quiet, I had to turn up my volume louder than normal to really hear it and record this. When sprinting, it does a single ethereal, echoing honk. Frankly it sounds a bit... like an asthmatic duck 😆 But I love it, the sounds are unobtrusive enough and the visuals are beautiful.

    They run the same as any indriks, just the antlers are much larger. As for sounds - I have most sounds off in game, everything like that is just plain annoying to me.

    I just turned sounds on for a test - the jump is a rear with a flash of shadowy "gloam" and a "brass horn" sound, there is no chirp like other indriks when starting to sprint.

    [Sorry, I don't have any way to make recordings.]

    Hmmm. What do you make of this - comments elsewhere said: "Why does the ever gloom version sound like it’s an elk climaxing" & "The females make the daintier sounds when pushed to run faster. This chad gloam male screams “UUUUUHHHN” instead."

    Sounds terrible -_- hope someone can record!
