Start with the brakes first.

Pulse in the brake pedal could either be a worn rotor or a hanging caliper - does the wheel want to turn when you hit the brakes hard?

Wheel shimmy - balance the wheels, check for wear and damage. Inspect ball joints, tie rods and steering universal for excessive wear/damage

Transmission - almost sounds like your clutch is slipping - could be clutch disk related or hydraulics. - you need to investigate this one further. Engine mounts will make you think the fillings in your teeth are going to fall out at idle.

Roar/whine - probably a wheel bearing - could also be a CV, they can also howl, especailly when they are excessively worn, albeit evenly.
