[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 1599922, member: 19675"] The sound-effect idea is good! I used a Tycho drum CD by Kodo to set the mood in a story arc in which the PCs were being hunted by...well, that's not important. But the drums DEFINITELY got their adrenaline flowing. Back on point- there are a lot of natural effects tapes and CDs out there, many of them fairly cheap. Check your local music store for "sound effects" or "soundscapes" or even in the new age section, or check out a store like the Discovery store or the Museum store, etc. In fact, LaserLight Digital has a series, Echoes of Nature, whose CDs are generally pretty inexpensive. Frog Chorus CD 12 152 and Bayou CD 12 252 seem particularly appropriate. Bayou includes the growls of alligators. Others, Thunderstorm CD 12 151, Rainforest CD 12 251 Jungle Talk CD 12 253 could be used to simiulate other sounds during your sessions. There are many others in that series and many other series out there. If you have the technology on hand (or can borrow with ease) get a CD boombox or 2 to supplement your main sound system. That way you can play multiple discs at once to layer the sound. Combine Bayou with Rainstorm, perhaps, or Thunderstorm with Jungle Talk. [/QUOTE]
