About this sound

HOLD ONTO YOUR HAT

This is a tornado roaring for about a minute and 20 seconds. It's one long steady wall of wind, with a few spots where it pushes harder. It's loud the whole way through. Sounds like the storm's right on top of you.

Editing notes

Measured from this file.

  • There's 0.37 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 peaks at +0.8 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 −13.4 LUFS, about 5 dB louder than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So start with the fader lower when you swap it in.
