Punctuate an arrival
Two soft tones on the cut tell the audience someone came in, which saves a shot of the door in a game scene as much as on film.

Chimes for film, games, and ambience
Metal wind chime
Small tubes knocking at uneven spacing, each one ringing briefly. The unevenness is what makes it read as wind rather than as someone playing it.
Bamboo wind chime
Hollow wooden knocks with no ring at all. Drier and warmer than metal, and the version that does not make a scene feel supernatural.
Glass chime
Thin bright clinks with a fast decay. Fragile-sounding, which is why it suits anything delicate or slightly unsettling.
Tubular chime
One long tube struck and left alone. The slow even decay is the whole point, so give it room rather than cutting on the strike.
Entry chime
Two soft round tones rising, with nothing after them. The sound a door or a counter makes when someone arrives and nobody is startled.
Announcement phrase
Four tones in an even rising and falling phrase. Familiar from stations and airports, and it reads as public address without a word being said.

Ways to use a chime sound effect
Fill a still scene without music
A wind chime running under a quiet exterior gives the shot movement, so a long hold does not need a track to stop it feeling dead.

Set the mood with the material
Bamboo reads as warm and domestic. Glass reads as fragile and slightly wrong. The same movement, two different scenes, decided by what is hanging there.

Imply a place you never show
An announcement phrase under a close-up puts a station or an airport around a character without a single establishing shot.

Questions fréquentes
What is the difference between a chime and a bell?
A bell is struck once and rings as a single body. A chime is a set of tuned tubes or rods that sound against each other, so you get many small overlapping tones instead of one. They are different objects and they sit differently in a scene.
Why does my wind chime sound like someone playing it?
The spacing is too regular. Ask explicitly for uneven spacing between the knocks. Evenly spaced tones read as deliberate, and it is the irregularity that tells the ear this is wind and not a hand.
Which material should I use?
Metal tubes for a clear ringing chime, bamboo for a dry warm knock with no ring, glass for something bright and fragile. The material changes the emotional reading of the scene more than the tuning does.
How do I get a long ringing chime?
Ask for one long metal tube struck once and left to ring, with a slow even decay lasting several seconds, and generate at around six seconds. Trying to get length from a wind chime instead gives you more knocks, not a longer tone.
Can I get a notification chime rather than a hanging one?
Yes. Ask for two soft round tones with the second higher and nothing after them. Keeping it to two tones and removing the tail is what makes it read as a device rather than an instrument.
Can I use chime audio in a commercial project?
Yes. Audio generated on a paid Morphic plan is cleared for commercial use, including film, games, apps, and advertising.
