Smoking sounds for games, animation, and video edits
Lighter flick
A sharp scrape of the wheel and a soft whoosh as the flame catches, for a noir light-up or a campfire struck.
Slow inhale
A thin papery draw through a cigarette, for a character taking a long pull before they speak.
Slow exhale
A long soft airy stream with a faint hiss, for letting smoke out in a thoughtful pause.
Ember crackle
Tiny soft crackles and a faint fizz, for a close-up of a tip burning down in a quiet shot.
Lighter lid snap
One bright metallic clink, for a flip lighter closing at the end of a gesture.
Stubbed out
A short gritty twist and a faint hiss, for a cigarette ground out in a glass ashtray to end a scene.

Ways to use a smoking sound effect
Fill a quiet close-up without music
The crackle of an ember carries a silent shot of someone thinking, in a documentary, a monologue or an audio drama.
Edit prompt
Set a late, slow mood
A long exhale under the opening shot tells the viewer the pace is slow and the hour is late before a word is spoken.
Edit prompt
Hint at someone leaving the room
A stubbing sound from off screen tells the audience the conversation is over without showing a hand, in a mystery, a drama or a radio play.

FAQs
What is a smoking sound effect?
It is any sound that belongs to a smoking moment, such as a lighter, a draw, a breath out or a burning tip. Each has its own texture, from metallic to papery to airy.
Where can I get smoking sounds for a video?
Describe the single part of the moment and generate it, rather than looking for one clip that holds all of it. The six sounds here were each made from the prompt next to them.
How do I make a custom smoking sound?
Pick one part, name the object and add a texture. "A slow breath out through pursed lips, a long soft airy stream with a faint hiss" gives Morphic a clear vocal source to work from.
What is the difference between an inhale and an exhale sound?
An inhale is a thin draw with a papery rasp and sometimes a crackle from the tip, while an exhale is a longer, softer airy stream with a hiss. Using both makes a pull feel complete.
Can I use these smoking sounds commercially?
Yes, audio generated on paid plans can be used commercially. See our terms for full licensing details. The breaths are generated sound effects rather than recordings of a person.
Why does my breath sound too loud or too much like speech?
Ask for a breath by name, add the dry close-recording line and say no words. If it is too loud, add a quiet or soft word and trim the head in your edit.
