Shower Running

How it's made

Source

pressurized jets break into droplets; independent stereo noise forms a 0.7–9 kHz spray bed. A softer 180–1800 Hz pink layer represents water sheeting over the wet tiled floor.

Body

tiles scatter impacts rather than ring like metal; broad 1.6–6.5 kHz splash bands have Q 0.6–1.2.

Events

45–150 splashes/s, with 0.7–1.8 ms attacks and 12–42 ms decays, merge into fine wet grain.

Envelope

a steady 10 s loop; independent 0.3–1.4 Hz drift changes level by only 4–10 percent and gently moves the spray cutoff. There is no valve opening, closing, or periodic pumping.

Space

13/21/34 ms early reflections and a damped short room tail represent a small tiled bathroom.

Variation

seeded streams vary splash timing, strength, frequency, envelope and stereo placement. Pressure changes spray bandwidth and impact density; floor splash, room and distance change perspective.

Presets

soft overhead rain, forceful jets, close floor splatter, and a more reverberant shower stall.
