Signal the driver is about to make a move
A downshift and a throttle blip on the cut tells the audience an overtake is coming, in a chase scene, an animation or a racing game.
Modifier le prompt
Gear shift
The firm clunk of a gear lever slotting home, the engine dipping and climbing through each change, and the harsh grind of a missed shift. Describe the gear change your scene needs and Morphic generates it clean.
- Ask for a lever clunk into second, a missed shift grinding or a throttle blip
- A gear change made for the overtake on a mountain road in your chase scene
- A clean shift with no road noise, ready to sync to the hand on the lever
Gear shift sounds for games, animation, and video edits
Lever clunk into gear
A firm mechanical clunk and a short notchy slide, the close-up sound of a hand changing gear in any car scene.
Three upshifts
The engine climbing and dipping as each gear engages, the rhythm of a car pulling away hard down a straight.
Missed shift grind
A harsh metal crunch before the gear slots in, a comic or tense beat for a learner, a getaway or a breakdown.
Downshift with a blip
A quick throttle blip as a lower gear engages under braking, the sound of a driver getting ready to attack.
Shift into park
A smooth slide and a solid clunk as the selector reaches park, the quiet full stop at the end of a drive.
Truck gear change
A long stick clunk, a hiss of air and a heavy engine pulling again, for lorries, buses and big machines on the move.

Ways to use a gear shift sound effect
Carry a driving montage without music
Three clean upshifts keep a long road sequence moving with no score, in video, a game cutscene or a podcast about cars.

Put the audience on a long haul road trip
A heavy truck changing gear tells viewers they are out on the highway with a working rig, in film, animation or a driving game.

Hint at a nervous driver behind the wheel
A grinding missed shift heard over a shot of the road says the driver is struggling, without ever cutting inside the car, in video, games or radio drama.

Questions fréquentes
What is a gear shift sound effect?
It is a recording of a vehicle changing gear: the lever moving through its gate with a clunk, the engine note dropping and climbing as the clutch reengages, or a gearbox grinding on a bad shift. It is used in driving scenes, car ads and racing games to show a driver taking control.
Where can I get gear shift sounds for a video?
Generate them on Morphic. You describe the vehicle and the exact change in your shot and get that take, so it matches the picture. 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 gear shift sound effect?
Describe the vehicle, the type of gearbox and the change, then generate it. A prompt like "a car downshifting under braking, a quick throttle blip and the engine note jumping up" gives Morphic enough to work with, and you can adjust the wording until it fits the shot.
What is the difference between an upshift, a downshift and a gear grind?
An upshift drops the engine note as a taller gear engages, so the sound dips and climbs again. A downshift raises the note, often with a throttle blip to match speeds. A grind is a missed shift, where the gears clash with a harsh metal crunch before they mesh.
Can I use these gear shift sounds commercially?
Yes, audio generated on paid plans can be used commercially. See our terms for full licensing details. Because each sound is generated for you, you also avoid the clip turning up in someone else's video.
Why does my gear shift sound not sit right in the edit?
Usually the shift and the engine do not agree: a clunk on screen with no change in the engine note sounds false. Cut the engine dip to land with the hand on the lever, and if you show only the cabin, keep the lever clunk close and the engine lower behind it.
