About this sound
“So Much Variety”
That's a matchbox getting shaken and then slid open. About 3 seconds, three quick moves with little gaps between them. The shake is a bright little rattle of sticks inside the box, and the slide is a dry scrape at the end. It's pretty quiet, so you might want to turn it up.
Editing notes
Measured from this file.
- It gets loudest 0.53 s after it starts (0.56 s into the file). Line that part up with the action.
- It's done by 1.97 s. The last 1.06 s of the file is pretty much silence, so you can cut it.
- It's −31.1 LUFS, about 13 dB quieter than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So you'll probably need to turn it up when you swap it in.
