4 - Adding Nature Sounds (Multimixer)

  • Start playing a channel
  • Click on the plus (+) icon on the bottom left (#4 in the above picture)
  • Choose a layer (up to 3 layers can be mixed)
  • The chosen layer will start playing alongside the music, and the (+) icon will change into a number from 1 to 3 indicating how many layers are also playing
  • Adjust the volume faders (sliders) of each layer to taste
  • Continue to add more layers (Nature Channels) and have fun!

To remove a layer:

  • Click the plus (+) symbol (which will now have a number between 1 and 3 on it) while playing your music, and you will see the layers also playing
  • Go to the layer to remove, and click the "X" symbol that appears to the right of the layer, to remove it

Let your creative instincts paint your own Multimix.

  • Try adding different tonalities, high and low, for example add some Birds for the high frequencies, Whales for the middle frequency spectrum. Or try designing an "Outer Space" environment, using Earth, Delta Waves and Submarine. Your imagination is the limit!
  • * note: if you are on this page because your music has certain unwanted sounds while playing your Calm Radio channel, please check the layers (+) first to be sure that only your music is playing

Troubleshooting

Stream Dropouts

If your device is losing connectivity due to either:

  • inconsistent or slow wifi / data
  • mobile signal is switching between towers
  • mobile data is switching between 3G and 4G

We highly recommend you enter the Calm Radio app’s Settings menu and reduce the audio quality setting to either Normal or Mobile.

Hard Reset

Closing Background Apps

Your device may have too many applications open in the background memory which can cause your device to stall or slow down resulting in poor performance. Close as many apps as possible if your device response is slow.

Update your iOS

Your Apple device's operating system should be kept up-to-date. For many reasons like security, new features, you should always check and perform requested iOS updates.

Reinstalling

If in doubt, delete the Calm Radio by pressing and holding for 2 seconds then delete. Reinstall your app directly from the App Store. Download our free Apple iOS apps from the Apple App Store.
