Page turning is a classic Foley effect, created by handling real paper rather than by a musical instrument or a voice performance, and it has long been used in radio, film and audiobooks to suggest reading, studying or moving to a new section. Online, short versions of the sound are widely shared as free effects for creators who need a recognisable transition without dialogue or music. Its appeal is practical: almost everyone recognises the sound instantly, so it can signal a change of topic in a second, whether in a tutorial, a slideshow, a vlog or a short-form edit.
