About this sound

“Could have Been Anything”
Jayden, when he first posted this sound on YouTube in December 2024

A harsh, gritty hit that lands right at the start and is done in under two seconds. It's got a hard front edge, a short tail, then silence. Real loud, so it'll cut through a busy mix. Good for punches, crashes or slamming something down.

Editing notes

Measured from this file.

  • It's done by 1.08 s. The last 0.6 s of the file is pretty much silence, so you can cut it.
  • It peaks at +0.4 dBTP, which is over full scale. Turn it down about 2 dB or put a limiter on it before you push it up in a mix.
  • It's −9.1 LUFS, about 9 dB louder than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So start with the fader lower when you swap it in.
