If you take a very large turbo, vs a very powerful supercharger, while IN the car under high boost, you will probably find that the Turbo is louder.
If you take a smaller supercharger vs a smaller turbo, you'll probably find that the blower is louder.

Not exactly sure why the sound difference. But seems to be the case in all the video's of boosted cars, or ones I see in person, or ride in.
Probably because of the same reason the Superchargers are louder on idle, and the Turbos are generally more louder under boost (in the car).
