About this sound

“If I was Gordon Ramsay I would be a little bit too excited hearing that sound”
Jayden, when he first posted this sound on YouTube in September 2020

That's a carrot getting grated, a quick run of strokes over about 24 seconds. Each pass is a scrape back and forth with a kinda wet edge, and they come so close together it's almost nonstop. Fairly bright and loud, but not harsh.

Editing notes

Measured from this file.

  • It peaks at +2.7 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 −13.8 LUFS, about 4 dB louder than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So start with the fader lower when you swap it in.
