About this sound

“Scratch em' up Danny”
Jayden, when he first posted this sound on YouTube in January 2024

Here's two big record scratches over about 9 seconds. Each one gets dragged fast and far, so the pitch swoops up and down, and there's a pause in between. They're loud. Works for a hard stop in a funny edit.

Editing notes

Measured from this file.

  • It gets loudest 0.55 s after it starts (0.59 s into the file). Line that part up with the action.
  • It's done by 6.87 s. The last 2.19 s of the file is pretty much silence, so you can cut it.
  • It peaks at +0.3 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 −7.8 LUFS, about 10 dB louder than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So start with the fader lower when you swap it in.
