About this sound

A plain swipe whoosh: a short burst of filtered noise that rises and falls inside a third of a second. It is the least interesting sound in the pack and the one you will use most, because its whole job is to not be noticed.

Put it on every hard cut where the picture jumps. The ear reads a cut with nothing under it as a mistake; the same cut with a whoosh under it reads as a decision. Keep it quiet enough that a viewer could not tell you it was there.

Before you download: swipe whoosh questions

How loud should a transition whoosh be?

Quieter than you think. If you can consciously hear it on the first watch it is roughly 6 dB too loud. Bring it up from silence until you can only just tell it is present, then stop — in CapCut that is usually 20 to 30 percent.

Where exactly does it go on the cut?

Start it three to four frames before the picture changes so the peak lands on the new frame. A whoosh that starts on the cut always feels late, because the attack takes a moment to reach full level.

Can this swipe whoosh trigger TikTok's audio matching?

No. The swipe whoosh on tiktoksfx is a re-created, royalty-free recording made for this library rather than the original audio, so TikTok's audio-matching system has nothing to match it against — on any account type, business included.
