About this sound

“It's best to stay warm by the fire”
Jayden, when he first posted this sound on YouTube in December 2023

Here's a fire crackling, almost 14 seconds with no gaps. It's a steady burn with pops and snaps coming and going, and it's pretty quiet. Sounds like a small fire close by, good for a campfire or fireplace scene.

Editing notes

Measured from this file.

  • It peaks at +2.3 dBTP, which is over full scale. Turn it down about 4 dB or put a limiter on it before you push it up in a mix.
  • It's −24.2 LUFS, about 6 dB quieter than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So you'll probably need to turn it up when you swap it in.
