I need to learn techniques for generating storm sounds

like yeah I can filter white noise and use LFOs and stuff but how do I get the pitter patter of rain? How do I get realistic sounding thunder at various distances? These things have surely been studied right

hitting a resonated filter with some attenuated random could be a fun rain exercise binkle friend

@thymeandplac3 thank you - trying to implement what you said made me realize now that my audio engine needs several things to make this really good:

1) a random-walk node (so that I can, say, set the center frequency of the resonator to be random-walked around)
2) some sort of dirac()-izer, so that I can pick random values out and make them randomly attenuated blips (that I can then feed into a resonator or maybe a bank of them to get that good drip-drip)

random walk node works

hooked it up to a 4pole butterworth lowpass as a smoothing function and it feels a lot more like how I expected it to look, so that's nice too

@binkle is there a mrs butterworth lowpass?
