About this sound

“Blacksmith's Hammer”
Jayden, when he first posted this sound on YouTube in December 2024

This is one hammer hit on metal. It's really loud and bright, with a short ring after it, and then the rest of the clip is quiet. The whole file's about three seconds. Good for a forge, a workshop or anything getting banged into shape.

Editing notes

Measured from this file.

  • It's done by 0.41 s. The last 2.4 s of the file is pretty much silence, so you can cut it.
  • It peaks at +2.2 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 −6.5 LUFS, about 12 dB louder than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So start with the fader lower when you swap it in.
