Rain striking a real tin roof, recorded inside a garden shed with a distinctly metallic droplet texture.

Press Play to start. Compatible iPhone browsers use our native continuous HLS transport; other browsers use the 10-minute looping MP3. A Sleep Timer can stop a session.

This is a ten-minute arranged loop using about 605 seconds of an independently recorded tin-roof field source. The original HQ MP3 preview is lossy, and the original WAV has not been downloaded. The master was approved for listening, but the measured average level is very quiet (around -48.9 dBFS) while some individual transients reach -8 dBFS. Owner audio listening approved; iPhone lock-screen testing for this exact newly published HLS transport is still a separate device QA step.

What does Rain on Tin Roof really sound like?

Compared with Rain on Window, the sharper resonant impacts identify a metal roof rather than glass. That changing roof resonance is part of the sound, not a separate rain sound mixed under a generic noise layer.

WhiteNoiseChoir used a public MP3 preview and did not claim to have downloaded the original WAV. Audio preview re-encoding cannot restore lost recording fidelity.

Playing continuously beyond ten minutes

The MP3 master is ten minutes, but listening sessions do not stop at the ten-minute mark. On native-HLS-capable browsers, the media timeline contains repeated source segments spanning approximately seven days, so the system decoder can proceed beyond a single MP3 cycle even while the screen is locked. On other browsers, native MP3 loop provides repeat playback. These transports are not an infinite live broadcast and are subject to device restrictions.

There are 605 seconds selected from a 56-minute 30-second recording. The original field recording is not magically made longer by playback repetition, nor do we claim continuous entirely new events for the duration of an overnight listening session.

How to listen comfortably

CAUTION: do not rapidly increase your device volume because the quiet underlying bed can be interrupted by comparatively louder raindrops. Move between tracks only after turning volume down. Judge comfort at a low listening level.

Neither this sound nor the WhiteNoiseChoir player is a medical treatment or a guaranteed sleep aid. Never place a loudspeaker close to a sleeping baby and avoid prolonged high-volume sound exposure.
