About this sound
“Ready for a Sunday drive?”
That's a car starting up, idling for a bit and then driving off. It's about 14 seconds in one go, with a steady low rumble between the start and the pull away. Deep, bassy and loud. Good for someone heading out in the morning.
Editing notes
Measured from this file.
- There's 0.18 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's done by 13.5 s. The last 0.81 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 −11.9 LUFS, about 6 dB louder than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So start with the fader lower when you swap it in.
