About this sound
Get this man some Water
Here's a man coughing a few times. Dry, scratchy coughs with short pauses in between, all in about 3 seconds. There's almost a second of quiet up front, so trim that if you need it to start right away.
Editing notes
Measured from this file.
- There's 0.87 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's done by 2.17 s. The last 0.86 s of the file is pretty much silence, so you can cut it.
- It's −22.3 LUFS, about 4 dB quieter than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So you'll probably need to turn it up when you swap it in.
