Dinosaur sound effects

A long call pushed through a very large air column, rising then falling away. This is the version most scenes want, because scale is carried by the length and the resonance rather than by volume.

A torn, buzzing cry with a hard front edge from something horse-sized. It cuts through a mix where the bellow sits underneath it, so the two layer without either one disappearing.

A steady grinding vibration with no melody in it, held unbroken. Reach for it when a creature is present but not acting, since a sustained rumble reads as breathing rather than as threat.

Fast dry clicks and hisses from several small animals at once. Nothing else on the page says intelligence the way this does, which is why it works before a hunt rather than during one.

A dense flat impact with a long dull settle and debris shifting after it. The settle is what sells the mass, and it is the part a lighter thud always leaves out.

A single hard closure of heavy bone with a wet edge to it. It is the shortest sound here and the most violent, and it needs nothing around it to be understood.
