Make the keys hit the floor on the cut
A bright clatter of keys on the frame they slip from a hand gives a nervous moment its jolt, in a thriller, a point and click game or an animation.

Dropping
Keys clattering across tiles, a hardback slapping flat on floorboards and coins scattering and rolling away. Describe the dropping sound your scene needs and Morphic generates it clean, matched to object and floor.
- Keys, a book, a phone or a handful of coins, dropped exactly as described
- True to the floor in your shot, from kitchen tile to old boards
- Drop sounds come isolated, ready to pin to the frame of contact

Ways to use a dropping sound effect
Carry a clumsy moment without music
Coins scattering and rolling across the floor fill a quiet clumsy stretch of a scene, in a comedy short, a puzzle game or a podcast sketch.
Edit prompt
Set up a busy workshop or garage
A toolbox crashing onto concrete tells the audience where they are before the wide shot, in a car repair video, a crafting game or an audio drama.
Edit prompt
Hint at a shock in the next room
A glass smashing on the tiles off screen says something has gone wrong in the kitchen without showing it, useful in a drama, a game or a radio play.

FAQs
What is a dropping sound effect?
Dropping sound effects are the sounds of everyday objects falling onto a floor: keys clattering, a book slapping flat, a phone cracking, coins scattering and a glass smashing. Each object and floor pairing makes its own sound, which helps the audience know what fell without looking.
Where can I get dropping sounds for a video?
Hand Morphic the object and the floor, and it makes the sound. You get the exact keys-on-tile or box-on-concrete sound your scene needs, quicker than auditioning generic thuds. 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 dropping sound effect?
List the object, the floor and how it lands, then generate it. A prompt like "a handful of coins dropped onto a wooden floor, a bright scattering clatter" gives Morphic enough to work with, and you can change the surface with a single word.
What is the difference between a drop, a thud and a crash?
A dropped object carries detail: keys, a book or a phone, and what each one is made of. A thud is a dull heavy impact with little detail, and a crash is a drop where something breaks or falls apart. Choose the drop when the object matters to the scene.
Can I use these dropping 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 dropping sound not sit right in the edit?
An object or floor in the sound that does not match the picture is the usual cause. Keys on carpet sound muffled and dull, so describe the real surface, start the hit on the frame of contact and let rolls or bounces trail on only if you see them.
