This is a 5 second rendering of the famous 1000Hz Censoring Tone used on TV, Movies and broadcasts.

It can be cut, looped and used to censor audio that may be sensitive in nature or otherwise not fit for broadcasting.

Made the tone using an analog tone/pulse generator fed into a Focusrite Scarlet 2i4.

The sound is very clean (no noise).

As this "tone" is fairly easy to reproduce and there is no copyright on it, I'm not going to ask for attribution or anything. Just use it as you see fit whether it'd be commercial or private.

tl:dr; Public domain file made by me (BjornTHV)
