Ever notice how the wind through the leaves makes a kind of soft, layered hum, like a natural audio track? It got me thinking about how the soundscapes of forests could be analyzed like a studio mix.
Yeah, the wind’s a natural multi‑track—leaves give that subtle hiss, the air itself is a low‑frequency swell. If you were mixing it, you’d isolate the leaf chatter as a mid‑range source, roll off the harsh highs on the bark, and add a gentle low‑pass on the wind so it doesn’t overpower. Keep the bleed natural but bring out the micro‑textures; a high‑sensitivity mic and a touch of EQ can make those airy overtones pop.
