What is Ambient Mixer?

Ambient Mixer is a library of ambient sound mixes that you can play in your browser. Each mix, called an atmosphere, layers several sounds such as rain, a crackling fire or distant voices to create a scene. Many are inspired by books, films, games and places, and some of the most played are cosy rooms from famous fantasy stories.

Every atmosphere opens in a mixer where you can change the volume of each sound. With a free account you can save your own mixes, upload your own audio files and share what you make. The website is free and supported by ads and donations, and there is also a mobile app with a premium subscription.
