This sound is completely analog. I wanted here to reproduce the sound of the waves breaking on the shore. For that I first generated a pink noise, and fade in opening, then duplicated this sound 3 times. I then generated another track with a pink noise to make the constant sound of the sea, and applied a phaser so that each wave is slightly different. I then mixed the tracks and applied a low pass to muffle the sound and make a softer sound. The wave frequency is not regular so that the sound is more natural.

Analyse selon la typologie de P. Schaeffer :

Il s'agit d'une itération variée V’’

1. Masse : Il s’agit d’un son seul et complexe, puisqu’il n’est composé que d’un type de son qui varie dans la boucle.

2. Timbre harmonique : Le son est relativement terne. Il est répétitif, plutôt sourd, qui donne un effet relaxant.

3. Grain : Le son est clairement rugueux, du fait que ce soit un bruit rose, il est très texturé. Cela permet de se rapprocher du son des vagues naturelles.

4. Il n’y a pas de vibrato dans le son

5. Dynamique : l’attaque est abrupte sans pour autant être violente, on sent la vague s’écraser, puis repartir doucement.

6. Profil mélodique : Il n’y a pas plusieurs hauteurs dans le son.

7. Profil de masse : /
