Recording sources & licenses

This beta uses original synthesized noise plus field recordings by independent creators. The nine recordings below were listed by their creators under CC0 1.0. They were processed for browser listening. Rain on Window and Fireplace are ten-minute arrangements of sixty seconds of independently recorded source material each; they are not ten-minute uninterrupted field recordings. No audio was copied from YouTube.

The source links are provided for transparency; synthetic sounds do not have third-party source recordings. The 60-second Rain on Window and Fireplace samples were approved by the site owner; their ten-minute arrangements are pending extended listening checks on iPhone.

The three newly approved Rain & Thunder masters use three distinct CC0 Freesound HQ MP3 previews; the independent source lengths and repetition patterns are listed below.
