Discord voice channels use short interface sounds to tell everyone in a call when the participant list changes, and the leave tone is the counterpart to the join sound. Because the clip is under a second long, it has become a handy shorthand in short-form edits, reaction videos and gaming clips, where a single blip can replace an explanation. It is often grouped with other Discord notification sounds and Discord call sounds, which share the same clean, digital style and are recognised instantly by regular voice-chat users.
