About this sound
A subtle error tone just under one second long, made of two short, low pulses. The sound is deep and soft-edged, with a bassy character that sits well below typical bright interface beeps. It plays for most of its short length with little silence, and its level is moderate, so it reads clearly without startling.
Use it in an app or website when a form field is invalid or a login fails, in a game when a player picks a locked option, or in a tutorial video to flag a wrong step. Lower the level a few decibels under dialogue so it stays a gentle cue rather than a harsh buzz.
