Hello there , your quickest way would be to create a zip file , plenty of free to use programs to make zip file . Take the sound file , zip it and then use attachment feature ( paper clip symbol ) to upload to site . I would also provide an explanation of what the zip file refers too as some people may well be wary of opening such a file

Hope it helps

Alternatively, take a video of it (landscape mode please, not portrait!) with your mobile phone, upload it to YouTube and use the Share link then post the link on your post.

Landscape mode will pick up a larger area of the screen and may enable someone to spot something making contact with something it shouldn't for example.
