About this sound

“Light Chop”
Jayden, when he first posted this sound on YouTube in October 2025

Here's a log getting chopped. Two quick hits close together, the chop and a little follow-up, then quiet for the rest of the 2 seconds or so. It's a dry, woody crack, not a deep thud, and kinda quiet, so turn it up if you need it.

Editing notes

Measured from this file.

  • It's done by 1.02 s. The last 0.87 s of the file is pretty much silence, so you can cut it.
  • 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 −21.7 LUFS, about 4 dB quieter than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So you'll probably need to turn it up when you swap it in.
