We've a 40 ft Doug Fir in our front yard, and I hear a sound like what I understand you to describe, from juncos in it, as well as from juncos in our arbor vitae. I'll try for a recording if I get the opportunity. Merlin misses many birds I hear, and mis-identifies plenty (recently Black-backed Chickadees misidentified repeatedly as if they were Mountain Chickadees). I'm not at all convinced that's what you're hearing. I'd love to hear what others suggest and what you think later on.
