Make a pass over the camera hit hard
A helicopter thudding past on the frame it crosses the lens gives a rescue film, a flight game or an animated chase a strong moment.
Edit prompt
Flying
Wingbeats whooshing past, a propeller plane droning overhead and a beetle buzzing by the lens. Describe what is flying and how it passes, and Morphic generates it clean.
- A bird, a prop plane, a helicopter or a flock passing, as you describe
- Fly-bys pitched to follow your camera across the valley
- Clean, isolated fly-bys ready to drop on the pass in your edit
Flying sounds for games, animation, and video edits
Bird flying past
Heavy wingbeats whooshing close past the microphone and fading, for a bird crossing the shot or gliding away.
Prop plane fly-by
A small plane droning past overhead with a rise and fall in pitch, for airstrips, countryside and travel shots.
Helicopter pass
Rotor chop thudding louder as it nears and fading with a falling whine, for rescues, aerial shots and chases.
Flying body whoosh
A deep rush of wind with clothing flapping hard as a body flies past, for heroes, leaps and flying characters.
Beetle buzz-by
A deep buzzing drone that swells and fades as a large beetle flies close past, for gardens and insect close-ups.
Flock overhead
Many wingbeats rushing low overhead and fading, for geese crossing a marsh or birds lifting off together.

Ways to use a flying sound effect
Carry an aerial nature shot with no music
A flock rushing low overhead carries a long wide shot of the marsh or the sky, in a nature video, a game intro or a podcast segment.
Edit prompt
Put the viewer on a sleepy country airstrip
A small propeller plane droning past sets a slow rural mood before any runway is shown, in drama, animation and audio stories.
Edit prompt
Hint that something just flew over the camera
A body whooshing past off screen tells the audience a hero or creature just flew by, without a visual effect, useful in film, games and radio plays.

FAQs
What is a flying sound effect?
It is the sound of something passing through the air: wingbeats, a small plane, a helicopter, an insect or a body whooshing by. Most flying sounds swell as they approach and fade as they leave, and the pitch drop as they pass tells the ear they are moving.
Where can I get flying sounds for a video?
Generate them by describing the fly-by on Morphic. You get the size, speed and direction your shot needs, and every sound on this page was made from the prompt printed beside it, ready to adapt.
How do I make a custom flying sound effect?
Name what is flying, how close it gets and how it fades. A prompt such as "a helicopter flying past, the rotor chop thudding louder as it nears and fading away" is enough to start, and you can change the source or the distance in the wording.
What is the difference between a fly-by, a flyover and a hover?
A fly-by passes the listener side on, rising and falling with a pitch drop. A flyover crosses directly overhead and is often louder at its peak, and a hover stays in one place with a steady sound and no pass at all.
Can I use these flying 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 flying sound not sit right in the edit?
Most often the peak of the pass does not match the moment the subject is closest to camera. Slide the take so the loudest point lines up with that frame, and pick a lighter, longer pass if the subject is small and far away.
