About this sound

“You've Got Mail”
Jayden, when he first posted this sound on YouTube in April 2025

That's a dial-up modem calling out and trying to connect, almost 7 seconds of it. You get a quick run of beeps and screechy bursts with near silence in between. It's really loud, so turn it down first. Sounds like getting online back in the day.

Editing notes

Measured from this file.

  • It's done by 6.33 s. The last 0.62 s of the file is pretty much silence, so you can cut it.
  • It's −9.7 LUFS, about 9 dB louder than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So start with the fader lower when you swap it in.
