Calming Nature sounds for recording meditations

[Dianasmusic]

Any recommendations for calming nature sounds for recording meditations?

Stormdrum 3 has water bowls and many other cultural instruments commonly used in meditation music. Goliath has a few digital sounds that are very relaxing, and is overall a library to use if you need to fill in some blanks. Maybe try Voices of the Empire/Voices of Passion for some chants? I've not downloaded them but they seem like they might have something for that, even if it's a specific patch.

A lot of meditation music has a synthesized drone with a few bright percussion accents, so if you're really looking for a certain sound; you might just have to make one.

Dunno for nature sounds, but Stormdrum 2 as well (additionally to SD3) has some amazing bowls, and instrumental athmospheres/drones too!

Cheers!

A bit off the grid, but recording real nature sounds is kind of fun too ... the sea, a forest, birds, etc. Not easy to get a clean recording as there are always planes / people / dogs / cars / whatever in the background.

When it comes to ambient sounds, and pads, Omnisphere is hard to beat ... layering that with sampled VSTs by East West can create really nice results.
