How it's made

Source
a small puff of air brushing past as a panel slides away: pink noise high-passed at 150 Hz, plus a thinner white-noise "air" layer high-passed at 3 kHz for the breathy top.
Body
a band-pass (Q ≈ 1.8) with a tracking low-pass, whose centre falls exponentially from ~5 kHz to ~0.8 kHz, so the swish seems to recede; a faint resonator on the same curve (Q ≈ 8) adds a soft, airy whistle colour, never a pitch.
Envelope
8 ms onset ramp (no click), peak at about 18 % of the length, then a fast curved fade to silence; the air layer fades earlier than the body so the tail darkens as it leaves.
Variation
three decorrelated noise streams give a slight stereo width; `rng` shifts the sweep start and the peak time by a few percent; presets change length, sweep range, airiness and darkness.
