This Rain Simulator Is The Most Satisfying Thing On The Internet Today

If you love the sound of the rain, but dislike everything else about actual rain — the lack of sun, the coldness and the whole "getting wet" business — then this tunable rain simulator from RainbowHunt is exactly the thing for you.

While there are plenty of good ambient sound sites (and here at Digg we've done a roundup of our favorites), one of the coolest characteristics of this particular rain simulator is that it allows you to adjust and mix up different features of your rain soundscape:

Like the sound of light rain with a dash of a thunderstorm and just a hint of raindrops hitting a window pane? You can do that.

Another interesting feature that sets Rainbow Hunt's simulator apart from others is its visual aspect: you can add or decrease the amount of raindrops that appear on the screen of the simulator, which gives the illusion that it's raining even more startling verisimilitude. The heavier the rainstorm you've created, the more it'll look like it's actually raining hard on your screen. And of course, if you've had enough of rain and are yearning for a slice of sunshine, you can always turn the simulator off and watch with satisfaction as the raindrops evaporate off the screen one by one.
