About this sound
Come on, come on, come on.. and it's alive!
That's an old car starting up. The starter cranks, the engine catches, and then it sits in a rough, rattly idle for the rest of the 23 seconds. It's loud and there's barely a gap. Works for any beat-up car that barely wants to go.
Editing notes
Measured from this file.
- It's done by 22.4 s. The last 0.78 s of the file is pretty much silence, so you can cut it.
- It peaks at +0.3 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 −13.0 LUFS, about 5 dB louder than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So start with the fader lower when you swap it in.
