About this sound
“That was a Loud Timer”
That's a washing machine starting up, about five seconds. You hear some clicking from the timer and then the motor picks up, and it runs without stopping. Kinda bright and mechanical. Good for a laundry room or a house in the background.
Editing notes
Measured from this file.
- There's 0.25 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.
