My car's belts are making a weird sound?
The sound appears to be coming from the belts. They started out by being a little louder than usual and now this happened and it stops when you rev it by the way it's a 1994 camaro V6 if that matters any

Sounds like a pulley bearing failure. Usually its the idler/tensioner pulley or the alternator that does that especially from how tinny the sound is. Other possibilitys are the water pump or the A/C compressor. Try taking the belt off and spinning each pulley, there should be some resistance in the water pump and the power steering pumps only everything else should be pretty free and have no grabby spots in their rotation, also listen for noise while spinning.
