About this sound
“Sounds like a Fire coming”
This is electrical sparking that comes in pulses, about eight and a half seconds long. There are two main bursts of crackling and fizzing, all bright hiss with no low end. It's on the quiet side. Sounds like a busted wire throwing sparks in a sci-fi movie.
Editing notes
Measured from this file.
- There's 0.26 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 gets loudest 0.19 s after it starts (0.45 s into the file). Line that part up with the action.
- It's done by 7.96 s. The last 0.61 s of the file is pretty much silence, so you can cut it.
- It's −23.2 LUFS, about 5 dB quieter than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So you'll probably need to turn it up when you swap it in.
