SOUND LANDSCHAFTEN

at rest

Mood

Ambient Volume the voice of the wild — how loudly the earth breathes

Music Volume the voice of the muse — how loudly the music dreams

Density how many spirits stir at once — below one, even a lone voice grows rare

Serenity the deeper the stillness, the longer the world sleeps between whispers

Quiet Gaps how often the whole realm falls into hush and holds its breath

Drift how gently each voice rises out of silence and sinks back into it

Musicality how often the muse wanders in among the wild things

World Size how vast the realm stretches — the wider the world, the rarer a soul crosses paths with a voice

Wander Pace how swiftly the wanderer roams — the pace itself rises and falls as they go, never quite steady

Musicality how many voices of the wild rise in the world for every song the muse offers

Clumping how the voices settle across the realm — evenly scattered, or drawn together into clusters
