DESCRIPTION
ㅤ
Replaces the night time ambient audio for spring, summer, and fall with less harsh and repetitive sounds.
The file is well-optimized, only 2.3MB, and about as high of a bitrate as the original with no audible clicking.
The audio is sourced from an actual cornfield during the night, and mixed to suppress ugly noise you normally get from a field recording.
Someone could make the argument that a cornfield doesn't make much sense for places like the Secret Woods, but neither did the original.
TECHNICAL
ㅤ
I will probably not be able to convince you that this night time audio is just "better".
But I can give you some nerdy and technical information to maybe change your opinion.
The vanilla night time audio is not bad. But is fatiguing due to the loud, constant hum of crickets around the 5khz band.
This is the closest to the ear's sensitivity peak. It can be uncomfortable to listen if you're playing into the early hours of the morning.
A lower profile ambient bed makes more sense for a game. You also have footsteps, foliage, waterfalls, and random audio triggers.
The last thing any good sound should do is distract from the content itself. And for me, the night time audio was very distracting.
It is genuinely hard for me to go back to the vanilla night time audio.
