- We're gonna put our sound design project down for a second to build some of our own sound effects. In this movie, we'll start with literally nothing to create a motion graphics type sound effect. At any time when you're working in a multitrack session, like we have here, you can go to the File menu, and choose New, Audio File. You'll be asked to save the audio file, so we'll name it "My Whoosh Effect," and we'll hit OK, and we're brought into the waveform editor. Next, I'm gonna use the Effect, Generate, Noise parameters to start generating something from scratch. So, the noise generator, like the tone generator we saw earlier, is able to generate different noise profiles, and what I mean by that is we have different colors of noise. "Noise" is the technical term for a sound file with an even dispersion of frequencies happening all at once. So different color noises, like for example, white noise, is all frequencies at all volumes. Since there are many more high frequencies than low…
