Picture your evening / Illustrative sceneStart with a main sound, add one supporting texture, and leave space. These presets are creative recipes—not tested formulas for sleep.
Sources & review notes ↗Fireside Rain
Start with rain at 55, fire at 25, and night insects at 10; leave the river at zero. Picture rainfall beyond a window, with a closer fire inside. The numbers are slider positions, not recommended device volume or measured decibels.
If the fire draws too much attention, lower it. If you prefer the rain alone, remove the other layers. The point of a recipe is to give you somewhere to begin, not a balance you have to preserve.
Riverside Cabin
Start with river at 50 and night insects at 20, leaving rain and fire at zero. This combination suggests an open view toward water rather than a closed room during a shower.
Listen to the river first. Bring the night layer down if you would rather keep the scene simple. Two ingredients are enough for a complete mix; a quieter slider is not a missing feature.
An evening of your own.

Open Window at Night
Start with rain at 35 and night insects at 20. Keep the other channels silent. This is an imagined scene, not a documentary claim that these recordings were captured together in one location.
The four samples have separate source records: rain by BonnyOrbit, river by bassimat, fire by kingsrow, and crickets by felix.blume.↗↗↗↗ The mixer combines them here as short loops.
Make the recipe your own
Choose a preset, press play, and change one slider at a time. Preset buttons change the balance; they do not start audio by themselves. Use the pause button whenever you want to stop. Keep the device volume comfortable while adjusting the relative levels.
Lalai’s app supports up to five sound layers, while this browser demonstration uses four. The app is on the App Store for iPhone and iPad. For the basic mixing approach, read how to mix night sounds; for a smaller comparison, try rain versus river.
Four sounds.
Entirely your balance.
Start with a preset or move the sliders yourself. These are short Lalai sound samples, played on a loop here. Nothing starts until you press play.
Sliders set the relative balance, not a recommended listening volume. Start with your device volume low. Listening safely.
