Structure Blaze

How it's made

Source

a fully involved building fire; turbulent combustion is brown pressure at 38-320 Hz plus independent pink-noise flame sheets at 180-2600 Hz, with quieter venting gas at 1.8-6 kHz.

Body

falling beams and masonry excite damped modes at 58, 103, 179 and 307 Hz (0.2-0.8 s T60). No sustained pitched oscillator or baked room reverb; low pressure stays centred for mono compatibility.

Events

16-46 fibre snaps/s use 0.5-1.5 ms attacks, 3-12 ms excitation and 25-90 ms woody tails; finer embers add dense filtered impulses, while structural failures occur roughly every 5-12 seconds.

Envelope

0.16 Hz shared oxygen drift links roar level and spectral opening; independent 0.7 Hz flame flutter prevents a static noise bed. Collapses have 12 ms contact, 0.65 s weight and 1.4 s debris tails.

Variation

independent seeded beds, event strengths, mode detuning and pan; macros control combustion, fuel fracture density, collapse activity, vent brightness, stereo spread and high-frequency absorption.

Presets

exterior inferno, close timber frontage, low warehouse roar and an absorbed street setback change layer balance, event density, structural activity and perspective rather than only output gain.
