About this sound

Every old house has that one squeaky spot.

A creak, 3 of them actually, with clear pauses in between, all in about 2 and a half seconds. They're quiet and slow, more of a squeak than a snap. Sounds like an old door or a floorboard you're trying not to step on.

Editing notes

Measured from this file.

  • There's 0.71 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 0.26 s after it starts (0.97 s into the file). Line that part up with the action.
  • It's done by 2.02 s. The last 0.45 s of the file is pretty much silence, so you can cut it.
  • It's −28.0 LUFS, about 10 dB quieter than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So you'll probably need to turn it up when you swap it in.
