About this sound
“This is Plate Glass”
Now that's a plate glass window shattering, about 2 seconds long. It opens with a sharp crack and then spills into a high, hissy scatter of falling shards. It's loud and bright. Works for a break-in or something crashing through a window.
Editing notes
Measured from this file.
- It's done by 1.34 s. The last 0.71 s of the file is pretty much silence, so you can cut it.
- It's −12.4 LUFS, about 6 dB louder than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So start with the fader lower when you swap it in.
