Super quick question, been bugging me for YEARS!

Hi there, real quick question that hopefully any pro Editor can answer!

I edit a lot of montages and video packages, and I wanted to know what you would call the loud crashing noises used in trailers are?

3 examples are all on the hits at 2:33, 2:37, 2:40.

Can anybody either point me to where these are or at the very least, what they’re called so I can go hunt for them myself? I’ve no problem putting in the leg work and finding them but I don’t even know what to call them and “sound effect” just gives me ducks quacking and door bells etc.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

As a pro editor, I would call them annoying, overused and trite. However, you might have better luck looking for "whoosh."

smrpix, thank you so much.

Just for you, I'll try and keep them to a minimum. Honestly, thanks a lot brother.

They also fall under the broad category of "impacts" at some sites if you're shopping for audio clips/effects . (Of course you're going to have to narrow it down, since there are so many different types of "impacts" )

They are the "Taiko" drums.

You could use the 8Dio Hybrid Tools for that.
I like to use it in Kontakt.

Yeah, those are thuds. There are also crashes, explosions, impacts, squishes, etc.
