About this sound
“If the Plane explodes, please fasten your seatbelt”
That's explosive decompression, two big bursts in just under ten seconds with a clear pause between them. It's mostly rushing, hissy air instead of a low boom, and it's loud. Each burst cuts in fast and then thins out. Good for a hatch blowing open in space.
Editing notes
Measured from this file.
- There's 0.29 s of quiet before the sound starts. Trim that off if it has to land right on a cut, a hit or a button press.
- It gets loudest 1.55 s after it starts (1.84 s into the file). Line that part up with the action.
- It's done by 6.48 s. The last 3.07 s of the file is pretty much silence, so you can cut it.
- It peaks at +0.4 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 −13.5 LUFS, about 5 dB louder than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So start with the fader lower when you swap it in.
