Whooshes and risers are edit glue: they hide cuts, sell camera moves and give motion graphics weight. This set spans soft air movements for subtle scene changes up to cinematic braams and impact-risers for trailer moments, all delivered dry so you can place them in your own space with EQ and reverb.
How to choose a transitions & whooshes sound
Pick length by cut speed — 300–600ms whooshes for fast cuts, 1–4s risers to build into a drop or title card. Low-pitched sweeps read as heavy and slow, bright ones as fast and light. Layer a short whoosh under a long riser for transitions that both build and land.

Frequently asked questions
- Do these work for YouTube and monetized videos?
- Yes — CC0 means no Content ID claims from us, no attribution requirement, and full commercial use including monetized channels and client work.
- How do I make a whoosh hit exactly on the cut?
- Align the loudest point of the whoosh (usually just past its midpoint) with the cut frame, not the file start. Trim or fade the tail to taste — editing the files is fully allowed under CC0.
