Whine

A thin electronic tone holding steady, a turbine spooling up, a motor straining under load and a dog whimpering for the door. Describe the whine you need and Morphic generates it clean.

Whine sounds for games, animation, and video edits

Electronic whine

A thin steady tone at one high pitch, the hum of a screen, a scanner or a charged circuit that sits in the background of a scene.

Turbine spool-up

A small turbine climbing smoothly in pitch before it holds, for a hangar, a drone launch or a machine coming to life.

Motor under load

A high whine from a small electric motor working hard, with a faint gear hum beneath it, for a lift, a servo or a workshop tool.

Dog whimper

A thin nasal whimper repeated three times with short pauses, from a small dog asking to be let out or fed.

Power-down

A high whine sliding down in pitch until it fades out, the sound of a device or machine losing power.

Charge-up

A rising whine sweeping fast to a peak and ending on a sharp tick, for a flash, a defibrillator or a gadget ready to fire.

Ways to use a whine sound effect

Cut to a dog whimpering at the door

A short whimper on the cut gives a pet a voice in a family comedy, a game cutscene or an animated short, with no dialogue needed.

Keep a quiet lab from feeling empty

A steady electronic whine sits under a silent scene with no music, in a sci-fi short, a game level or a documentary about machines.

Make a hangar feel like a working place

A turbine climbing to its pitch tells the viewer the machine is live, in a flight sequence, a product film or a game menu.

Show a machine dying out of frame

A whine falling in pitch lets the audience know the power has gone without showing the device, in a thriller, a horror scene or an audio drama.

FAQs

What is a whine sound effect?
It is a high, sustained pitch, either mechanical, electronic or animal. A hovering drone, a charging flash and a puppy at the door all produce one, which is why the word covers such different sounds.
Where can I get whine sounds for a video?
Describe the source and the pitch and generate it, rather than searching for a clip that is close. Every sound on this page was made from the prompt printed beside it, so you can start from one and adjust.
How do I make a custom whine sound?
Open with what is making the noise, then say how the pitch moves. A prompt like "a small jet turbine spooling up, climbing smoothly and then holding high" tells Morphic more than the word whine alone.
How is a whine different from a hum or a siren?
A whine is thin and high and usually driven by something spinning or charging. A hum is lower and steadier, and a siren swings between two pitches on purpose, so describe the movement you want.
Can I use these whine sounds commercially?
Yes, audio generated on paid plans can be used commercially. See our terms for full licensing details. Because each whine is generated for you, it will not turn up in someone else's video.
Why does my whine sound harsh in the edit?
High pitches cut through a mix, so a whine at full level can sting. Pull it down under the dialogue and ask for a thinner, softer tone in the prompt if it still sits too far forward.
