I need a certain sound for a song.

I thought it would be fun to add a whistle to a song I am writing, but cannot find the right sound. I am looking for one that is like a sports coach's whistle. None of the whistle options sound even close to that. If anybody knows what I'm talking about, please let me know. Thanks! ( :

MuseScore uses the General MIDI standard to define the available sounds. The type of whistle you refer to are pitches 71 & 72 (short and long versions) of a standard GM drumset. So, add the Drumset instrument, go to note input mode, then hit Edit Drumset and add definitions for those pitches as described in the Handbook under Drum notation.
