We don't get much rain in Southern California but today it poured. Luckily I had my audio gear handy and I recorded a few high quality clips for your stormy productions.

Hey Andrew,
thanks for the sfx. Sounds awesome!
Like a few others, I'd love to know what audio gear you're using and what software/techniques you're using to clean them up - is it just a basic EQ or what?

Andrew just read my mind. I was frantically searching my hard drive for Rain SFX for my reel - luckily I decided to check out the blog. Thanks Andrew.
Thanks!
Thank you for this awesome recording of the rain, I listened to them all and for a moment I felt as if I were there taking shelter from the rain...ok I'm gonna go P now...this is the effect these sounds have on the human body, good thing you didn't record a moaning woman right before that or I'd have a hard time to get a good aim and risk a flood

These sound files are very relaxing ANDREW, especially if you don't get much sleep.
'Sounds of Nature', THANKS.
Maybe a section, sounds to help you relax at VIDEOCOPILOT.NET,
in the future?

Those sounds are great. I'm interested in what you used to capture this audio as well, and how much you had to process it afterwards. Just for geekdoms sake of knowing.
Tnx again.
Tnx again.

Nice. You did something productive.
I, on the other hand, made a tuna salad and stared out the window all day.

Thanks for the sfx, Andrew
LB - Sorry to hear about the drought & fires in Horesham, AU... I live near Horesham, UK and we've got more rain than we know what to do with - yet I still never think to record the damn stuff for my sfx! (It takes a man from sunny california to do it for me!)

We've been in a drought for 12 years and now the worst bush fires ever killing 189 people and rising in Victoria, Australia.
I've just about forgotten what rain sounds like.
Thanks Andrew for the reminder
PS. The small rural city of Horsham where I live in Australia had its worst bush fire destroying 8 houses the local golf club and one business. The temperature reached 117 F. and wind gust 50mph.

THANK YOU!!!

How on earth did you record in such high quality... I wish I had that kind of equipment. I would go around recording everything
Awesome stuff, added to my every growing collection of sound fx. (Best place for quick project sfx - http://www.freesound.org)
