Sounds of the heart. Sound effects and ambient emotions (11–20)

Sad Trombone Sound Effect

A perfect sound effect for expressing disappointment, like a deflating balloon.

In just a few seconds, it accurately depicts the feeling of one’s spirits gradually sinking, making it an excellent piece of psychological portrayal.

It’s lightweight in size and should be easy to use in many scenes.

Sad sound effect

A sound effect featuring a sad song with a shining, sorrowful melody.

The piano’s melodic line is deeply melancholic, so even a brief listen can make you feel down.

It’s especially suitable when you want to convey a quiet, heartfelt sadness.

This piece is characterized by dissonant chords composed in the high register, giving it a distinctly eerie atmosphere.

It’s quicker to grasp by listening than by explanation, but almost anyone who hears it will likely feel a sense of anxiety or discomfort.

It seems well-suited for horror or suspense scenes.

sound effect, happy kids

This piece greets your ears with the cheers of children.

As a psychological depiction of joy, it is excellent, and it seems capable of conveying a straightforward sense of happiness to listeners in any context.

The sound quality is good and the playback time is short, so it appears to be suitable for reposting as is.

Anxiety, fear, doubt, squishy (sound effect) Negative Horror Doubt (sound effect)

This work brilliantly turns the gradual growth of anxiety and distrust into sound effects.

The uniquely unpleasant audio, which can feel quite distressing to listen to for long stretches, pairs perfectly with audio works like sound novels.

It’s a paid asset, but the sound effect offers value well beyond its cost.

Hospital/Electrocardiogram Beep Beep Beeeeeep (sound effect) Electrocardiogram Sound Effect

This represents the sounds of the heart expressed through an electrocardiogram.

It may be a little different from the “sound of the heart,” but the ECG’s regular electronic beeps could also be used for psychological depiction.

Since it’s processed with an echo effect, it carries a somewhat mystical atmosphere.
