Especially sound effects on TV, cartoons, etc. There was a Kit Kat commercial consisting of nothing but crunching sounds; it would make me cringe to the point of covering my ears and leaving the room. I really hope I'm not the only crazy person who does this. :/
What we've got here are these five various sounds coming from items that crunch. These are great examples of crunching sounds that are perfect for your video games, cartoons, animations, AE templates, movies and trailers, commercials and promos, vlogs, you tube and social media contents and many more. Use these "crunchy" sounds today and you will have a more pleasant day than ever! Trust me and enjoy this sound pack!

The sound of glass shattering can signal chaos and disruption, but also usher in moments of insight when characters experience a psychological breakthrough. Foley artists combine glass sound effects with other mid and low frequency impacts to enrich the sonic texture. In this article we'll explore several tricks that filmmakers use to deepen their emotional effect.
Our team rounded up a collection of royalty free glass breaking sound effects from the Audio Design Desk library, so you can download and use them in your next project. Have a listen to them below and continue reading for details about the most common sound design techniques:
In the above scene from Breaking Bad, we hear a single, light glass tapping sound as the character prepares to throw his glass beaker. When it makes contact with the wall, the sound effect is louder and longer than it would be in real life. The pull-down map of the periodic table rolls back up suddenly and smacks against its holding case, extending the length of the impact and contributing to the dramatic effect.
Above we find a scene from the 1983 film A Christmas Story. The main character tries to shoot a rifle and knocks his glasses off into the snow. As he walks carefully and looks for find them, we can hear the gentle crunch of snow under his boots. In a brilliant moment of sound design, we hear a much louder and textural crunching sound when he steps on his reading glasses. It marks a moment of loss for him that harkens back to a similar, iconic scene from Lord of the Flies.
Notice how the initial impact sound of shattered glass is followed by the shuffling of mirror shards across the floor. The audience perceives the delicate tinkling sound as an immediate threat, knowing that these sharp pieces of glass could injure the characters.
The isolated sound of glass breaking rarely conveys the drama or intensity of a specific scene. Layering and combining it with other effects, like the deep thud of an impact or the echoing reverb of a large space, can intensify the experience.
An action sequence where the character flies through a window will include a whoosh sound prior to impact, a shattered glass sound, a deep impact thud sound as their body hits the floor, and a final scattering of glass as they slide across the floor. This layered approach to audio sequencing creates a more immersive and cinematic moment.
It was originally a Disney sound effect used in various movies and shorts from Walt Disney Productions. It debuted in the 1937 Disney cartoon Magician Mickey, before Hanna-Barbera picked it up in 1961. It is nearly identical to 02. As of now, this sound would make its way to other studios like Disney, Warner Bros., and many more.
What makes a good clean tone? This is a question that I got from my friend David in my Saturday YouTube show: Guitar Talk. And it's a good question to ask.
Depending on the style, it can be the sound that you build everything else upon.
This is your ground floor tone from your amp or modeler. Everything that you put before it (your guitar, pedals, or amp drive) is affected by it. It shapes everything. Clean tones don't sound so boring when you think of it that way.
What make's it clean? Easy, it's the lack of overdrive. It's giving you a very good idea of how your tone controls are set, what your speakers sound like, and what your guitar pickups sound like.
The most popular clean tone by far is the Fender blackface clean tone. It's bright but not too bright. It doesn't have a lot of mid-range so it sits well in a mix with other instruments, and it has a nice solid low end. It's usually a tube based amplifier which gives it a warm and pleasing sound. It always works, never fails. In Blues, Rock, Country, and Jazz, you've heard the pros use this sound.
Another clean sound that may be overlooked is the Marshall amp clean. Marshall amps are based off the older fender tweed circuit that has a more defined mid-range. Even though Marshall is known for their heavier crunch sound, they have a clean sound that is perfect for rock and even blues music.
The Vox amplifier clean sound is a great choice for rock, blues, and country music as well. Made popular by the Beatles, Queen, and Tom Petty, it's jangly top end is very different than the standard blackface sound and is a great alternative.
The clean solid state sound has been around for years. the Roland jc120 is a staple for jazz players as well as the clean tone of choice for heavier bands as well. It has a bad reputation for sounding "sterile" because of a lot of terrible amps that were put out early on in the process. Solid state amps can also have modeling technology built in to give you many different choices of simulated tube amp sound. this is great for new guitarists who are just learning about the differences between amps and what they would like to sound like.
The final clean amp choice is to use no amp at all. For years, guitarists have recorded (and performed) with direct boxes plugging straight into a recording console or pa system. This lets you know exactly what your pickups sound like without being changed by the preamp of the amplifier. It's a very different sound than you are probably used to but a good learning experience to try out. Nile Rodgers, Prince, Billy Gibbons, and Eddie Van Halen are all known to get some very cool clean tones from going direct. As for as getting a simulated amp sound by going direct, Tech21 for analogue and Line6 (and a lot of others) for modeling are great ways to get a amp like clean sound by going direct.
But what about the bass. Because you are playing at home at such a low volume, the low end of your tone may suffer. That will cause you to crank the bass. But, when you are live and at full volume, your speakers are capable of a lot more bass. If you keep your same low level settings, you tone will have way too much bass, sound muddy, and get lost in the mix. So, at the gig, make sure you adjust your lows and mids for your clean tone.
What is a crunch tone? This is a tone that has been pushed into overdrive. Classic Rock songs use crunch tones as their main rhythm sound. This is best described as a distorted rhythm.
A crunch tone will have more sustain than a clean tone but less than an all out lead or distortion sound.
An overdrive pedal can do some boosting as well, but it does something else as well. It has the sound of a clipped amp built in. So you can run an amplifier quietly and still get the crunch sound that you are after. Is it as good as cranking your amp, probably not. But overdrives have been getting better all of the time and can be very convincing.
If you set up your lead tone first as distorted and loud as you are going to use it. Just by rolling back your guitar's volume knob, you can experiment with many different tones as you roll back, even all of the way to clean sounds if you have the right amp.
The Allman Brothers, Hendrix, and many other Classic rock and Blues players use this technique with wonderful results. With a roll of the knob you can go from clean to crunch and beyond without floor tapdancing and minimal effort.
If you are a rhythm player and not concerned about lead guitar, depending on your style, you may still need a loud or distorted sound for certain types of songs.
The main problem with these sounds is that a lot of players go too far. When you add a ton of distortion on (depending on the style of course) it's easy to lose the tone of your guitar itself. Remember volume and distortion are not the same thing.
If you are a lead guitarist, a very important thing to think about is the vocal quality of your lead tone. Think about what tone will sound full and grab attention. If you lead tone has scooped mids, it will struggle to cut through the band, even with a lot of volume.
I also talked about setting your amp up for a great lead tone first and rolling back your volume for your other sounds. If you have a high gain amp that is easy to get a distorted lead sound from, give this a try. Not having to fool with pedals and having your volume and tone knobs on your guitar to control everything can lead to very cool tones.
Notice I haven't talked about reverb, delay, chorus, and other cool ambient or modulation sounds. Those are all dependent on your core tones. Taking the time to get these three core tones dialed in first will give you the tools you need to build many many cool tones with all sorts of other effects. Tune in next week for more on that.
In TV, this means making the sound of a broken bone (crack!) a bit louder, frequently with the foley noise of a breaking stick or a stalk of celery. In literature, this means taking the time to describe the sound ("...with a sickening crunch"). It doesn't have to be a broken bone, either. Maybe a character's heart is struggling, and the viewer will hear that character's heartbeat from time to time.
