About this sound
Unplug it, quick
This is a welder shorting out. It's one long crackle that sputters and breaks up for a little over 7 seconds, way more hiss and fizz than rumble. Pretty bright and harsh. Sounds like something electrical about to give up.
Editing notes
Measured from this file.
- It gets loudest 1.35 s after it starts (1.48 s into the file). Line that part up with the action.
- It's done by 6.2 s. The last 1.21 s of the file is pretty much silence, so you can cut it.
- It's −14.4 LUFS, about 4 dB louder than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So start with the fader lower when you swap it in.
