About this sound
“Loud as Hell”
That's a big industrial breaker getting thrown. Two hard metal clunks, the lever going over and then settling, in about three and a half seconds. It's very loud with quiet around the hits. Trim the short quiet start if you're syncing it to something.
Editing notes
Measured from this file.
- There's 0.24 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 0.73 s after it starts (0.97 s into the file). Line that part up with the action.
- It's done by 2.26 s. The last 1.11 s of the file is pretty much silence, so you can cut it.
- It peaks at +2.9 dBTP, which is over full scale. Turn it down about 4 dB or put a limiter on it before you push it up in a mix.
- It's −5.7 LUFS, about 13 dB louder than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So start with the fader lower when you swap it in.
