Break an uncomfortable silence in a room
One dry cough lands in the gap after a bad question, giving a comedy sketch, an audio drama or a game cutscene's awkward pause a shape.
Prompt bearbeiten
Cough
The cough that fills an awkward pause or tells the audience someone is unwell. Generate the one your edit needs, from a single dry bark to a chesty fit, and drop it clean on the cut.
- Describe the person, dry and tired, deep and rattling, barely suppressed, and hear that specific body
- A cough recorded for your character, so it never turns up in someone else's sketch or training video
- Isolated takes with no stranger's room tone attached, ready to sit close under dialogue
Cough sounds for video, games, and animation
Dry cough
Short, scratchy and with no wetness. The everyday cough of a tired or nervous person, for when you need a human noise and nothing more.
Throat clear
A brief, deliberate ahem carrying more social meaning than illness, someone about to speak, or letting you know they are standing right there.
Chesty cough
Deep, loose and rattling from low in the lungs. Reach for it when a character should sound genuinely unwell rather than mildly inconvenienced.
Coughing fit
A run of coughs that builds and struggles to stop, ending in a ragged breath. It carries real distress, so give the scene room to hold it.
Polite cough
Small, closed-mouth and almost apologetic. Perfect for a quiet interruption that gets attention without anyone raising their voice.
Hacking cough
Harsh, barking and repeated, with an edge that sounds painful. Best kept for illness plots, grim interiors and moments meant to make people wince.

Ways to use a cough sound effect
When a waiting room needs people in it
Scattered coughs and throat clears turn an empty background into a crowd, clinic queues, lecture halls and courtroom scenes all breathe better.
Prompt bearbeiten
A ward at three in the morning
Distant chesty coughing behind a wall builds a hospital, a barracks or a shelter far faster than any line of narration could.
Prompt bearbeiten
The character nobody has seen yet
A cough drifting from the next room puts an unseen person in the house, a trick radio plays, horror games and podcast fiction all lean on.

Häufig gestellte Fragen
What is a cough sound effect?
It is a recorded human cough used on screen to break a silence, punctuate a beat, or tell the audience someone is unwell. Depending on its depth it reads as a nervous throat clear, a dry bark, or a chesty fit, so the cough you choose shapes how a moment plays before anyone speaks.
Where can I get a cough sound for a video?
Generate one rather than search for it. Describing the cough you want takes less time than digging through a stock library, and you get the exact take your edit needs instead of the closest available clip. Every sound on this page was made from the prompt printed beside it, so you can start from one and adjust it.
How do I make a custom cough sound effect?
Describe who is coughing, how deep it is, and how many coughs, then generate it. A prompt like "a chesty wet adult cough with phlegm from the chest, about two seconds" gives Morphic enough to work with, and you can adjust the wording until it fits the shot.
What is the difference between a dry cough and a chesty cough?
A dry cough is a sharp, quick bark from the throat with no phlegm, while a chesty cough is deeper and wetter, rattling up from the chest. Picking the wrong one is the most common reason a cough feels off against picture, because each tells the audience something different about how sick a character is.
Can I use these cough sounds commercially?
Yes, audio generated on paid plans can be used commercially. See our terms for full licensing details. Because each sound is generated rather than pulled from a shared library, you also avoid the clip turning up in someone else's video.
Why does my cough sound effect not sit right in the edit?
Usually the perspective is wrong rather than the sound itself. A close, dry cough laid under a wide shot feels pasted on, because the ear expects distance to match the frame. Generate the cough at the depth and distance the scene calls for, and it sits in the mix with far less work.
