rain_on_a_roof_01.wav

A summer rain on the roof. Recorded at 3:00 in the morning so there is no traffic. By pointing the microphone out a window that is over a porch roof, I was able to get all the sounds of the rain, both near and far, at the same time. You hear rain on the driveway, rain coming down a gutter, and drops hitting the roof only inchies away from the microphone -- all at the same time. This sample is "folded" on itself -- the second half is a mirror of the first half. For that reason, it can be easily looped to make it as long as you need it; the end will seamlessly match up with the beginning.
