About this sound
One more pin and you're in..
Here's somebody picking a tumbler lock. It's about 9 seconds of tiny metal clicks, scrapes and pin taps, one right after another. Real bright and thin, and pretty quiet, so it feels up close. Works for a heist scene or a break-in.
Editing notes
Measured from this file.
- It peaks at +0.1 dBTP, which is over full scale. Turn it down about 2 dB or put a limiter on it before you push it up in a mix.
- It's −29.5 LUFS, about 11 dB quieter than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So you'll probably need to turn it up when you swap it in.
