FAQs
What is a hurt sound effect?
A hurt sound is a short vocal reaction to pain, an ow, a gasp, a grunt or a moan, used for damage in games, fight scenes and slapstick. Game designers often need a set of them so repeated hits do not sound identical.
Where can I get hurt sounds for a game or video?
Generate a set from prompts and every one comes out in the voice of your own character. All six hurt sounds here were made from the prompt printed beside them, so you can match the set to your hero.
How do I make a custom hurt sound effect?
Write a short word such as Ow or Ugh and add a pain tag in square brackets before it, like [grunting, hit hard]. Generate several deliveries with the same voice to build a full damage set for one character.
What is the difference between a hurt grunt, a pain gasp and a moan?
A grunt is short and physical, the sound of taking a blow. A gasp is a sudden sharp breath, surprise and pain at once. A moan is longer and lower, the sound of being worn down.
Can I use these hurt 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 do my hurt sounds feel repetitive in the game?
Playing one take on every hit gets noticed fast. Rotate three or four deliveries from the same voice, scale the reaction to the damage with a grunt for small hits and a moan for low health, and shift the pitch slightly each time.
