About these thirteen
Most of Hush's water sounds are built from layers, such as drops, distant rain and a background, and Hush Plus lets you set the level of each one.
Across the group, the level between 2 and 12 kHz falls 3.6 dB per octave on average. River rapids is the darkest: it falls 4.8 dB per octave. Heavy rain is the brightest: it falls 1.3 dB per octave.
All thirteen are built from layers, which Hush Plus lets you balance.

Which water sounds are free in Hush?

How were these levels measured?
Each sound was measured in one-octave bands centred from 2 to 12 kHz, the range Hush uses for pitch matching. A level is given in decibels relative to that sound's overall level, so it shows the shape of a sound, not how loud it plays. The figures come from Hush 1.0.0 (9).
