How it's made

Source
wind drives dense rain obliquely onto wet surfaces; pink rain beds and white spray are stereo.
Body
broad 180–1400 Hz turbulence under 600 Hz–8 kHz rain; no sustained pitched resonance or reverb. Hard surfaces give 1.4–5.5 kHz splats; foliage softens them to 650–2400 Hz with longer releases.
Envelope
overlapping 9.5 s and 5.8 s pressure fronts plus random gusts raise wind quadratically, brighten rain and increase impact rate. Spray follows 180 ms later; independent 0.7 Hz wander breaks up sheets without periodic pumping.
Events
25–180 impacts/s, 0.5–1.5 ms attacks and 9–38 ms releases; finite voices avoid sharp impulses.
Variation
seeded streams vary drop colour, strength, duration and pan; stereo beds are decorrelated. Presets separate exposed squalls, hard wall lashes, soft foliage and wind-heavy airborne spray.
