New York sounds for games, animation, and video edits

Taxi horn pair

Two brassy honks with a pause between, the impatient pair of beeps that says dense traffic.

Subway train arriving

An iron rumble that rises into screeching wheels and a hiss of brakes, for an underground arrival.

Pedestrian footsteps

A mass of shoes on concrete, each tap distinct, with a rolling suitcase wheel somewhere in it.

Steam vent hiss

A steady soft white hiss with a faint metal rattle, the sound of the city breathing out of a grate.

Siren passing

An emergency siren that swells, passes and fades, with one short horn blast, for a city that never quite goes quiet.

Jackhammer burst

Rapid hammering on concrete in bursts with a rattling pause, the road crew sound of a busy block.

Honk at the moment a taxi cuts in

A two-note taxi horn on the cut gives a traffic gag its punch, in a comedy sketch, a driving game or a city travel vlog.

Questions fréquentes

What is a New York sound effect?
It is the set of sounds people hear when they picture a dense American city: horns, subway trains, steam vents and a crowd of pedestrians. This page breaks that into six separate events you can use one at a time.
Where can I get New York sounds for a video?
Describe the event you need and generate it. That is quicker than hunting through city recordings, and the sound is yours alone. Every sound here comes from the prompt printed beside it.
How do I make a custom big-city sound effect?
Pick one event, not the whole city, and describe its mechanism: "a pneumatic jackhammer breaking concrete in rapid bursts". Morphic builds that one sound, and you can layer several to build the street you want.
How is this different from the New Year sounds?
These are everyday city events such as horns, trains and footsteps. The New Year page is about countdowns, fireworks and celebration. Use this page when the scene is an ordinary busy block.
Can I use these city 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 a stock clip that a thousand other videos already use.
Why does my city mix sound crowded and muddy?
Too many events at similar volume cancel each other out. Pick one hero sound, such as the horn, and keep the footsteps and steam low underneath it.
