About this sound

En Garde!

This is a sword getting pulled out of its sheath in one fast move, under a second. It's all bright metal scrape and ring, nothing deep, and it's loud. Trim the little gap at the start if you're timing it to a draw.

Editing notes

Measured from this file.

  • It gets loudest 0.17 s after it starts (0.24 s into the file). Line that part up with the action.
  • It's −10.8 LUFS, about 7 dB louder than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So start with the fader lower when you swap it in.
