About this sound
Metal versus grinder, and the grinder is winning
Here's a side head grinder going for almost 3 minutes straight. It's bright and harsh, a lot of metal rasp and motor whine, with barely any breaks. It's super loud, so turn it way down before you drop it in.
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 2 min 44 s. The last 0.36 s of the file is pretty much silence, so you can cut it.
- It peaks at +4.8 dBTP, which is over full scale. Turn it down about 6 dB or put a limiter on it before you push it up in a mix.
- It's +2.3 LUFS, about 21 dB louder than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So start with the fader lower when you swap it in.
