[Request] Weather effect enabled Orchestration rolls!

I think this is a fantastic idea. I love thunderstorms; the sound of the rain with thunder.... can we say bliss? Would be awesome to implement for the Orchestrions.

Pass this url to your FC and LS people. With devs now looking at the thread, this sounds promising. So lets get everyone to show support. Spread the word!!

Awesome idea! i would love to see this happen.:o

le bump. Keep the ideas coming in for this so the devs know!

Bump Bump!
Saw on another thread people talking as well as the ability to have a "Silent" roll or a way to turn off all music within the house.

That would work well to kill music but just have thunder sounds playing. Lighting mode 0 and Levin Lamp!

la bump. Comon people dont let the devs forget about this one. They already responded one.

Lets get rid of the same ol same old in our homes! :)

But they literally added 4 ambient tracks already. Check the housing merchant!

OMG You are RIGHT! They DID add my idea!!!! Woohoo!!!!

Ok, so now... if I could get the Thunderstorm one. =p

Least they did add this so far and show support for it. So if anyone has some real suggestions too, make them known. Took a lil time but I NEVER expected it would be started in for 4.0!! So show your love all for a continued Ambient Series everyone!

Thank you SE Devs! /bow

It's a great start for sure! Cheers to the sound/housing team for living up to their words~

Here's hoping we can hear a couple more entries to the ambient series in the future!

Yep! When I saw the patch notes saying "Added Orchestration Rolls" I thought oh ok, SB stuff. Didnt realize was the ambient.

So lets keep this thread going with NEW Ambient ideas!!! Updated OP with the update to keep things moving!

While Ill still vote for an "overlay" option to a current music track, Ill be ok with the Ambient too for now.

New Suggestions:
Ambient Thunderstorm
Ambient Windstorm (Think of that gust of wind before a hurricane or a storm front coming in)
Ambient Fireplace (Comon.. you know in winter time or when its snowing in the housing zones... to go in FC house by the fireplace hearing this....)
Ambient Beach Waves and Seagulls (Mist houses would love this)
Ambient Japanese Zen or Koto Style - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkW1iTyS8dk

Just want to say thanks to dev team for adding these ambient sounds to orchestrion.

Just want to also repeat that these can be bought from housing merchant npc for 5k a piece. I see some people buying them from mb for 30k or more on my server. >.>

Everything is more on MB lol... But yea, still need more sounds. Vote up! :)

I would also like to suggest ambient rippling stream. Those orchestrion rolls are so soothing.

Oh and also the sound or metal wind chimes!

OOoo wind chimes. Didnt think of that one. :)

Zen garden sound stuff would be neato for the new housing area too. :)

Yes I would also like if they added more Ambient Music Rolls in the game. We are still missing a Thunder roll!

Le Bump to remind and request others support for more ambient sound rolls!

Oooh yes windchimes would be great. I also wish we had actual windchimes that we could put on our houses, like the other decorations.

Can we add some kind of ghost whispers too? :3

i wish the ambient scrolls that are added int he future are more soothing and gentle. They may have added 4, but they are kind of forceful.

Then you'd just end up with Jennifer Love Hewitt crashing in your apartment.

Though I'd actually hoped there'd be a way to get Edda's ghost to show up and haunt you following the TTD HM story. Sadly, Palace of the Dead had to wreck all of that...

'Voices of Madness' could actually be fun though. One that has extreme demonic whispering, and one that just very rarely says something to throw you off guard.

Nowadays whenever I heard the word madness, this comes to mind.

I'm still praying for some sort of ghost Edda (from tam tara hm ending, not black Edda from potd) furniture to help spook up my house.

while the rain did seem lil oddish compared to a rolling storm.. least they did start making these for us. Just need more to get on board and show support and ideas. =D

Another idea to add to the pool! How about a blizzard sound effect? Would go well if we ever get Ishgard housing! XD

Also some sort of Zen meditation for Shirogane housing maybe? :x

The Zen one we mentioned since yea thats kinda needed now. Normal Flute and Lutes and so.

Blizzard could be cool. I always think of Lunar 2 when you enter that city and had to kill the snow beast. Had a blizzard sound.

Video of that sound. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmQ6JMGgbHU

Le Bump to get some fresh posts in about ambient sound as well as the effects.

With Halloween around the corner, here are some suggestions I came up with:

• Sad crying with echo effect (think witch from L4D)
• Insane laughter with echo effect (Edda anyone? :3)
• The crowded sound effect when there's tons of player gathered in the same spot (asset already in game)
• I think this was already mentioned before, but Wind chime + Wind blowing + insect for a typical daytime summer in Japan-ish effect

First, thanks to the developers for already adding some ambient orchestrion rolls!

I would love so many more ambient rolls added as well as a way to play them simultaneously with other tracks. Ambient sounds are more relaxing for me since I'm a musician and my brain naturally cannot help analyzing most music. The orchestrion would be much more useful with ambient tracks.

I like previous suggestions and most particularly the sound of wind chimes. It might be more difficult to implement though given the range of sounds and randomness in winds that make it so pleasant in the real world, but we can dream. Yes, yes, yes to blizzard!

The current tracks are a little forceful, as Niqote added. The best ambient sounds are of course still out in the world of eorzea and I'm hoping for tracks closer to that.

Also, creepy Halloween tracks might inspire some very fun haunted mansions and houses in the community! :)

Well I never thought of the Busy Kitchen sound, great addition for Cafe houses!

Also the bonfire! So devs thank you for continuing to add sounds!

Personally... still waiting on the "Bentbranch Thunderstorm" ambient sound!!!

Also my new feedback. Holidays are coming. Some sorta sleigh bells or christmas like ambient sound could be neat too. That... or just give us Christmas Jueno from FFXI lol.

Le bump for more background sounds and still waiting on Bentbranch Thunderstorms!

Anyone else for more ambient sounds?

Lil bump in hopes we can still get that Bentbranch Thunderstorm roll!

In the end, I've decided that the Goldsmith's Guild has the most relaxing sound effects in the game. So a roll to replicate that would be welcome.

bump for a thunderstorm! Seriously tho...needs more boom. :D

Still a bump for bentbranch thunderstorm!

As well as continued weather effects. Chime in everyone. =D

Been awhile since I bumped... Bumping again for that Thunderstorm!

Anyone else have some thoughts too?
