FAQs

What is a hook sound effect?
Hook sounds are the clanks, snaps and catches of hooks in use: a grappling hook biting a wall, a carabiner clipping in, a fishing hook set into a bite, a gate latch, a crane hook on its chain and a coat dropped on a wall hook. Most are metal on metal or stone.
Where can I get hook sounds for a video?
Generate them on Morphic from a short description of the hook and the action. Searching a stock library for a grappling hook that catches the right way takes longer, and every sound on this page was made from the prompt printed beside it.
How do I make a custom hook sound effect?
Say which hook, what it catches on and how hard, then generate it. A prompt like "a heavy steel crane hook swinging on its chain and clanking against a steel beam" gives Morphic enough to work with, and you can adjust the wording.
What is the difference between a grappling hook, a carabiner and a fishing hook sound?
A grappling hook is a heavy throw, a whoosh and a clank as it bites stone or metal. A carabiner is a small springy snap of a metal gate, and a fishing hook is heard through the rod and line, a swish and a taut twang.
Can I use these hook 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 hook sound not sit right in the edit?
Hook sounds often land a frame early or late. Put the clank exactly on the frame the hook bites, keep the whoosh under the throw, and lower a carabiner snap when it is only a background detail.
