Moonlight Lullaby
Moonlight Lullaby is a bright little tune played high up on the keyboard, with the bass filtered away entirely. Where the Lullaby pad is a wide, dark chord, this one is a narrow, high line that actually moves. It suits you if you want a melody rather than a drone.
Ready to play
Put this under rain or a fire, keep the blend you end up with, and play it through the night with your screen off. The Slo app does that on iOS, Android and Mac.
What the loop actually contains
Both ears get the same thing, so the sound stays in one spot and won't widen on headphones. The notes run from the F above middle C up to the C two octaves over it, the range a music box or a celesta covers, and below that there is almost nothing: no bass, and very little even at the pitch of a speaking voice. A phrase turns over about every three quarters of a second.
Compared with the Lullaby pad
Almost nothing about them matches. Lullaby is wide, deep, dark and a single held chord. This one comes from one spot, has no bass, sits high and moves. Picking between them is a real choice and not a coin flip, because they aren't two versions of one recording.
If you want the brightness without a tune, Enchanted covers similar ground as a sustained cluster; Singing Bowl is a single held pitch. The sound library index has the rest. A melodic line often wants something underneath it, and the Moonlight Lullaby and brown noise blend in the free sound mixer supplies the missing bottom end.
Frequently asked questions
Does the sound spread around you?
No. Both ears get the same thing, so it stays in one place and won't widen out across headphones.
What instrument is it?
It sounds like a music box or a celesta. What plays is a melody rather than a synthesized pad.
How does it compare with Lullaby?
They're opposites. Lullaby is a wide, deep, unchanging chord, while this is a high, bass-free tune about two octaves above it that stays in one spot.
Does it keep playing on its own?
Yes. Once you press play it repeats until you stop it or the timer does. Choose 15, 30 or 60 minutes, or all night.
