Why Do Certain Sounds Give You Chills? The Science Behind ASMR

Nia markovska - SEPTEMBER 8, 2025 

📖 Reading time: 5 min and 10 sec

There’s something oddly satisfying about a soft whisper, a gentle tapping sound, or the slow crinkle of paper. For some, these sounds trigger a full-body sensation, like a chill running down the back of your neck or even a tingle across your scalp. That’s the magic of ASMR.
But why do these tiny sounds have such a big effect on our bodies and minds?


ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response) has become a global sensation among various audiences on YouTube, TikTok, and streaming platforms. Yet despite its popularity, the science behind it, and how your environment affects it, is still widely misunderstood.


Let’s together explore what ASMR really is, why certain sounds feel so good, and how the space you’re in, your bedroom, your studio, or even your headphones, can fully change the way you experience it. 

What Is ASMR and Why Does It Feel So Good?

ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response, but most people know it as that strange, satisfying tingle you get from certain sounds. Surprisingly, it’s not universal. Not everyone feels it, but for those who do, it can be deeply relaxing and comforting.

The most common ASMR triggers are surprisingly simple:

  • Whispering
  • Tapping or scratching surfaces
  • Crinkling paper or plastic
  • Brushing, hair cutting, or soft hand movements
  • Personal attention roleplays (like mock checkups or makeup sessions)

What do these sounds and actions have in common? They’re gentle, repetitive, and the noise is intimate. They mimic the kinds of close, one-on-one interactions that our brains associate with safety and care, such as a friend brushing your hair or telling a story in a soft whispering voice.

What Happens in the Brain During ASMR?

Research suggests that ASMR activates areas of the brain linked to calm, empathy, and emotional regulation. This is similar to how we respond to music or physical touch. Functional MRI scans have shown that people experiencing ASMR have increased activity in the medial prefrontal cortex, which is tied to social bonding and emotional control.


That’s part of why ASMR has become so popular, especially among people dealing with anxiety, insomnia, or chronic stress. It has become a sensory tool for mental wellness.

How Your Space Changes the Way You Experience ASMR

Ever wondered why ASMR videos sound so crisp, close, and calming online, but feel flat or distracting when you listen to them at home? It’s not just the mic. It’s your room.

Your Ears Weren’t Designed for Echo

The human ear evolved to pick up subtle sounds in open, natural environments, such as rustling leaves or another person speaking nearby. But modern rooms are small, hard-surfaced, and boxy. That creates echo, reverberation, and unwanted reflections, especially in bedrooms and offices, for example.


When you play ASMR sounds, such as whispering, tapping, or brushing, in an untreated room, those reflections interfere with the detail. The sound feels muddier, less immersive, and less calming. Your brain has to work harder to “locate” and separate the sounds, which “kills” the relaxing effect.

Before we continue, we need to note that acoustic treatment and soundproofing aren't the same thing. For example, acoustic treatment (like panels and diffusers) controls how sound behaves inside your room, it reduces echo and makes soft sounds clearer.


While soundproofing, on the other hand, stops sound from getting in or out of a space. If you're trying to block outside noise (like neighbours or roommates), you'll want proper soundproofing materials.


Both make a big difference, but they solve different problems.

ASMR Spaces vs. Real-World Rooms

ASMR creators often record in acoustically treated spaces, quiet, padded, and sealed off from background noise. That’s why the sound in your headphones feels hyper-personal, like someone’s right there with you.


But when you listen in a room with loud noise coming from your neighbours, laptop fans, or echoey walls, that sensation breaks.

What You Can Do, Even Without a Studio

You don’t need to build a recording booth. But you can change the way ASMR (or any sound) feels by improving your space acoustically:


For listeners:

  • Use soft materials like curtains, cushions, and rugs to reduce reflections
  • Place small acoustic panels behind your bed or desk
  • Lower the room noise with a door sweep or seal the gaps

For creators or streamers:

  • Treat the wall behind and to the sides of your mic with VISTO 48 or ECHO wall panels
  • Add acoustic panels to the ceiling above your recording zone
  • Consider a soundproof door if you're filming near shared spaces

Even small changes can make your space feel less harsh and help your brain fully engage with the relaxing details of ASMR.

Soundproofing for More Than Music Studios

When most people hear “soundproofing,” they picture music studios, drum kits, or noisy rehearsal rooms. But that idea is out of date, and honestly, a little limiting.


Today, soundproofing is about protecting your space, your focus, your calm, your creativity. Especially for younger people living in shared homes, creating content, or just trying to get some peace, the need for acoustic control is everywhere.

Why More People Are Soundproofing 

Studying in a noisy flat? Soundproofing walls or doors can help you concentrate without distractions.

  • Creating TikToks, ASMR videos, or podcasts? Good acoustics = professional sound, even on a phone mic.
  • Gaming or streaming late at night? Soundproofing lets you stay immersed without disturbing others living with or around you.
  • Struggling to sleep with shared walls? A treated room helps your nervous system wind down.

Even a couple of acoustic panels, a quiet door, or a floor underlay can transform how a room feels. And when you pair that with headphones, playlists, or your favourite ASMR channel, you’ve created more than silence.

The Sound of Calm Starts with the Space Around You

The right sound can soothe your nervous system, help you focus, or quiet your mind after a long day. But those effects depend on more than just a good microphone or a pair of headphones. They depend on the space around you.


Hard walls, echoey rooms, or street noise can interrupt even the softest whisper or most delicate trigger. But when you treat your space, just a little, with the right materials, something shifts. The sound becomes closer. The atmosphere changes. You stop noticing the room and start feeling the sound.


If you’re listening to ASMR, creating content, or just trying to find peace in a noisy world, acoustic comfort matters. Because sometimes the quietest sounds can make the biggest difference, if your space lets you hear them.

Not all noise is created equal, and neither are soundproofing solutions. Find out which system fits your space, your lifestyle, and the sound problems that drive you mad.

Why does the same volume feel soothing at one moment and unbearable at another? A steady 45 dB rainfall can lull you to sleep, while a 45 dB dripping tap at 3 a.m. can keep you wide awake. Volume matters, but your reaction is shaped far more by context (where and when you hear it), predictability (how stable the pattern is), and meaning (what your brain thinks the sound represents).

You might not be a cyborg (yet), but your auditory system is a prediction engine. It continuously forecasts the next fraction of a second and then checks the incoming sound against that forecast.

The Body Shifts From Calm to Vigilance

Any environment that you feel comfortable in, like at home or an office, has certain background noises that your brain can get used to. As soon as a random car honks, there is your cortisol spike.

Stable, low-information sounds align with expectations, so the brain relaxes and shifts toward a slower heart rate and calmer breathing. Intermittent or information-rich sounds (such as horns, door slams, or a partner’s phone buzzing) violate predictions.

Two additional variables in the acoustic profile tilt the experience toward calm or stress:

  • Control: Sounds you can start, stop, or adjust to your liking feel safer than those imposed on you.
  • Relevance: A faint baby cry or an email ping linked to work carries meaning that elevates arousal, even when the dB meter reads low.

Our brains do not evaluate loudness in isolation. They evaluate the pattern, the timing, the frequency content, and the story the sound tells. That is why birdsong can feel restorative during a morning walk yet intrusive at 4:30 a.m. outside your window.

How Your Brain Decides: From Vibration to Emotion

A sound begins as air pressure changes. Your inner ear turns those vibrations into neural spikes that ascend through the whole hearing system. Each relay filters and refines timing, intensity, and spectral cues, so by the time signals reach the cortex, they already carry “where” and “what”, so your brain can act on them in milliseconds.

Predictive Hearing: The Brain is Forecasting

Your auditory system does not wait passively for input. It runs internal models that forecast the next sound, then compares the prediction against reality. When input deviates, a “prediction error” is raised, which you experience as something salient or surprising.

In hearing research, this framework helps explain why an odd tone in a regular sequence can trigger an automatic response even without actively paying attention. That predictive-coding account links small surprises to measurable brain signatures and to the feeling that a noise “sticks out.” 

That is why when we scope a space, it's not enough to only measure the noise levels. We also have to understand what is the type of noise, who the listener is, and what is the whole context of that space. 

Salience And Threat Appraisal: Why Meaning Beats Volume

After early processing, sounds are appraised by networks in the brain that decide “does this matter.” The salience network helps switch the brain toward action when a stimulus is behaviorally relevant, while limbic structures like the amygdala tag affective value.

A distant siren may be quiet, yet very noticeable, because it signals potential danger. Conversely, a louder but predictable fan hum is often ignored because it carries low danger.

Arousal Pathways: From Appraisal to Body Response

If a sound is flagged as important, noradrenaline ramps up, increasing alertness and tightening attention. That arousal couples to the autonomic nervous system: sympathetic activity raises heart rate and vigilance, while parasympathetic activity supports calm and recovery.

Chronic exposure to unpredictable noise leads to a higher stress load across the day. That is why effective soundproofing is a direct investement into ones health. 

Your reaction to a sound reflects rapid loops between prediction, meaning, and physiology. Predictable, low-danger sounds are easy for the brain to model and ignore. Unpredictable or meaningful sounds generate prediction errors, pushing the body toward stress.

What Makes a Sound Calming

Not all “quiet” feels the same. Sounds that relax you tend to be steady, predictable, and low in sharp detail, so your brain does not need to keep scanning for meaning or danger. Calming soundscapes lower arousal because they are easy to forecast and contain no urgent cues.

Sounds That Soothe

The acoustic profile of the sound you are hearing has a direct relation to how you would perceive it. Some sounds can truly soothe:

  • Stable loudness with slow, gentle changes over time
  • Few high-frequency spikes (no clicks, clinks, or squeaks)
  • Low information load (no lyrics or speech to track)
  • Balanced spectrum that avoids harsh highs and booming lows

Rain, surf, and wind often help because they create a broadband, even “bed” of sound. The micro-variations are natural and easy to predict, so the auditory system can down-regulate attention. Allowing your home to become a comfort zone once more. Your brain does not detect alarms in these textures, which lets the parasympathetic system step in and settle heart rate and breathing.

Pink Noise vs White Noise

Masking noise is not exactly like soundproofing, but in a pinch, it can get the job done. Lowering the surprise element of sharp noise would help you have a more stable sleep. 

  • White noise carries equal energy per Hz and can sound hissy to many ears.
  • Pink noise tilts energy toward lower frequencies and tends to feel rounder and more comfortable for sleep or focus.
  • Practical rule: begin at the lowest level that masks the intrusions you notice, then fine-tune. Louder is not automatically better.

Evidence aligns with this picture. Controlled studies show nature soundscapes can speed stress recovery and improve attention compared with urban noise. Periods of silence and slow, stable sound fields are associated with calmer breathing and heart rate, consistent with parasympathetic activation.

Public-health guidance also underscores the role of a quiet night environment for sleep continuity, with recommendations that keep night levels low enough to avoid awakenings from intermittent events.

How to Use This Tonight

Getting a good night's sleep is essential for our health. Luckily for you, we have prepared tips that you can use right away. 

  • Prefer steady, broadband sources (rain, surf, pink noise) over variable sources (music with vocals, podcasts).
  • Keep the contrast in check. If intrusions peak around 50 dB, a masker near 42–45 dB often works because it smooths the difference.
  • Choose non-semantic audio so your brain can ignore it rather than follow it.
  • If a recording contains sudden cymbal hits, door slams, or birds with sharp chirps, try a softer alternative or a gentle EQ roll-off of highs.
  • Almost all streaming platforms have soothing rain sounds. You can even turn on a desk fan.

When “Positive” Sounds Turn Stressful (Birdsong Included)

A sound that feels calming at noon can feel intrusive at 5 a.m. Your reaction depends on context, predictability, and what the sound means to you in that moment. The brain does not rate sounds by volume alone. It asks: “What is it, and do I need to act?”

Context Shifts The Label From Soothing to Stressful

  • Time of day: During the early morning, you spend more time in lighter sleep stages. Smaller stimuli trigger brief awakenings more easily than in deep sleep.
  • Sense of control: Sounds you can stop or anticipate feel safer. Uncontrollable sources (for example, a neighbour’s balcony chat) sustain vigilance.
  • Goal interference: If the goal is sleep, any novel signal that hints at “time to engage” competes with that goal.

Intermittency and novelty matter more than many realise. The auditory system continuously predicts what comes next. When an unexpected event breaks the pattern, the cortex flags a prediction error, and the brainstem can trigger a micro-arousal.

That is why intermittent events such as a single shout, a siren burst, or a sharp bird call are more disruptive than a steady hum at the same average level.

Meaning And Memory Can Flip a “Nice” Sound Into an Alarm

  • Through associative learning, a cheerful chirp that repeatedly precedes unwanted wakeups becomes tagged as relevant.
  • Salience and threat networks bias attention toward biologically meaningful cues, so “what it predicts” matters more than absolute loudness.

At dawn, birdsong often has sharp onsets and irregular spacing. In a quiet bedroom that creates high contrast. The high-frequency edges and variability keep prediction errors elevated, which prevents habituation. The same pattern that feels restorative on a daytime walk can feel like a summons at 5 a.m.

Individual Differences Raise Sensitivity

  • Trait anxiety or insomnia: Higher baseline arousal lowers the threshold for orienting responses. People with insomnia show stronger reactivity to neutral sounds at night.
  • PTSD: Hypervigilance and elevated tone increase startle and reduce the ability to ignore benign stimuli.
  • Sensory sensitivity: Central gain can amplify perceived loudness, so modest sounds feel intrusive.

The practical takeaway is simple: calm the nervous system and the soundscape at the same time. Reduce contrast and novelty, create predictable bedtime cues, and restore a sense of control. Your brain learns the pattern “safe and off duty,” which makes even imperfect environments more sleep-friendly.

 

a mystic looking of myths and truth

 

Myth vs Reality

Silence is not a universal sedative, and sound is not a universal threat. Your nervous system evaluates patterns, timing, and meaning, then decides whether to relax or mobilise. Here is where common beliefs miss the mark.

Myth: Quiet Equals Relaxing

Quiet can help, but it is not automatically soothing. In very silent settings, some people notice tinnitus or intrusive thoughts, which raises arousal. Others sleep better with a low, steady backdrop that masks little spikes in noise.

Evidence suggests stable sound fields and silence can both lower arousal, depending on the person and context (Bernardi et al., 2006; WHO Night Noise Guidelines, 2009).

Myth: Any Nature Sound is Calming

Often true by day, not guaranteed at 5 a.m. Birdsongs, water, and wind tend to carry low informational load and gentle modulation, which aids recovery after stress (Alvarsson et al., 2010).

At dawn, the same birds can produce sharp, intermittent calls that create prediction errors and micro-arousals during light sleep.

Myth: It Is Only About Decibels

Two sounds with the same average level can feel very different. What drives reactivity is the combination of:

  • Spectrum (low frequencies rattle surfaces; high-frequency feel “sharp”).
  • Timing (peaks, onsets, and amplitudes are more disruptive than steady states).
  • Meaning (sirens, alarms, a known door click carries priority in the brain).

This is why night guidelines weigh maximum event levels and number of events, not only nightly averages.

Several mechanisms make this possible:

  • Homeostatic sleep pressure: After long wakefulness or high activity, the drive to sleep is strong enough to override moderate noise.
  • Predictability and safety: A steady party murmur can function like broadband masking. If the environment feels safe and the pattern is consistent, the brain stops flagging it as relevant.
  • Developmental and individual differences: Children can show robust sleep pressure and different sensory gating; adults vary in trait arousal, anxiety, and prior learning, which shifts thresholds for awakening.
  • Circadian phase: If noise occurs near the biological low point, sleep onset is easier despite higher dB levels.

Your reaction to sound depends on the brain’s interpretation, not volume alone. Reduce contrast and unpredictability, keep cues consistent, and support a sense of control. Those ingredients make even imperfect soundscapes feel restful.

Вероватно сте наишли на термин „децибели (dB)“ чак и ако нисте тонски инжењер или музичар. Разумевање овог концепта није само кључно за то како доживљавамо звук, већ вам може омогућити и да унапредите своје аудио мајсторство. Да ли сте спремни да се снађете у различитим сценаријима како бисте побољшали своје... акустично знање?

Дозволите нам да одговоримо на нека горућа питања и понудимо савете и препоруке како бисмо вашу аудио игру подигли на виши ниво.

Основе dB-а

Децибели (dB) се користе за мерење јачине звука. То је посебан начин мерења јер свако повећање од 10 децибела заправо значи да је звук 10 пута интензивнији. Ово је заиста корисно јер нам омогућава да меримо звукове који су веома тихи, попут шапата, па све до заиста гласних звукова, попут млазног мотора. На пример, нормалан разговор је око 60 dB, док гласан рок концерт може бити преко 120 dB. Људи који раде са музиком и звуком морају да разумеју ову скалу како би могли да контролишу и мењају звук на најбољи начин.

This chart gives a sense of how loud different everyday sounds can be, providing useful reference points for understanding decibel levels in various environments

Идеални нивои dB за аудио

Права јачина звука може да варира у зависности од ситуације. Приликом стварања музике, стручњаци обично теже просечној јачини од -14 dB до -12 dB (средња квадратна вредност) за јасан и детаљан звук, а да притом не буде превише заморно за слушање. У условима живог музичког наступа, звук је обично између 85 dB и 105 dB, али је важно заштитити уши људи. Ови нивои помажу да се осигура да је звук и привлачан и безбедан.

dB у музици: Како их разумети и користити

Разумевање децибела (dB) у музици подразумева схватање како различити нивои јачине звука могу утицати на то како музика звучи и како је доживљавамо. Нижи нивои јачине звука могу додати леп дашак нијансе и узбуђења музичком делу, док виши нивои јачине звука могу учинити да музика звучи снажније и интензивније. Музичари и стручњаци за звук користе посебне алате како би пратили ове нивое јачине звука и осигурали да су тачни како бисмо имали одлично искуство слушања. Ево неколико корисних савета за управљање нивоима јачине звука у музици:

  1. Користите Децибел мерачРедовно пратите нивое звука како бисте избегли прекорачење безбедних прагова.
  2. Уверите се да Звучно изоловано ПравилноНе заборавите на мир других око себе док истовремено одржавате свој аудио програм.
  3. Мудро користите компресијуКомпресија може помоћи у управљању динамичким опсегом, спречавајући да врхови постану прегласни.
  4. Инструменти за балансирањеУверите се да су сви инструменти и вокали уравнотежени у миксу како бисте одржали јасноћу и спречили да било који елемент надјача остале.

Безбедне праксе слушања

Слушање музике на безбедним нивоима јачине звука је веома важно како бисте заштитили свој слух. Препоручује се да јачина звука буде испод 85 dB ако слушате дуже време. Да ли сте знали да гласни звуци могу утицати на ваше телоУ року од првог сата након излагања заиста гласној буци преко 90 dB, ваше тело одмах реагује. Осетљиви делови вашег унутрашњег уха, попут ћелија длака које вам помажу да чујете, под стресом су због интензивних звучних таласа. То може изазвати привремене промене у томе колико добро чујете, па чак и повећати ниво стреса.

A graph representing the structure of the human ear

Звуци преко 85 dB могу временом оштетити ваш слух. На пример, лични музички плејери при пуној јачини могу прећи 100 dB.Важно је знати о овим нивоима буке и предузети кораке да заштитите слух, као што је коришћење ограничивача јачине звука на вашим уређајима и прављење пауза од слушања гласне музике.

Правило од 3 dB

Правило од 3 dB је важан концепт у звучној и музичкој технологији. То значи да када повећате јачину звука за 3 dB, снага звука се удвостручује. Ово правило је корисно за подешавање нивоа јачине звука и осигуравање да је звук конзистентан на различитим местима. На пример, ако повећате јачину звука на систему звучника за 3 dB, мораће да користи двоструко више снаге.

Честа питања о dB

Да ли је музика од 70 dB прегласна?

Слушање музике јачине од 70 dB је генерално безбедно и удобно за већину људи, слично музици у позадини у ресторану или обичном разговору. Међутим, осетљивост на звук је различита код свакога, зато увек слушајте на нивоу који вам је пријатан.

На који dB треба да нормализујем звук?

Када радите са звуком, његова нормализација обично значи подешавање јачине звука како бисте били сигурни да звучи добро, а да притом не буде прегласно или изобличено. За стриминг платформе се препоручује подешавање нивоа јачине звука на -14 LUFS. (Јединице јачине звука у односу на пуну скалу) како би се осигурало да се све песме репродукују сличном јачином звука. Ово помаже да звук звучи конзистентно и професионално.

Заштита слуха

Безбедни нивои у dB за уши се генерално сматрају испод 85 dB. Дуготрајно излагање нивоима изнад 85 dB може довести до оштећења слуха. Да бисте заштитили слух, користите децибелометре или апликације за паметне телефоне како бисте пратили нивое звука у вашем окружењу. Ево још неколико савета за заштиту слуха:

  • Правите редовне паузеДајте ушима одмор током дугих сесија слушања. Знамо да је некако тешко када сте у току. Међутим, размишљајте дугорочно и немојте правити компромисе по питању свог здравља уопште.
  • Користите заштиту за ушиУ бучним окружењима која не можете контролисати и применити звучна изолација, користите чепиће за уши или слушалице са пригушивањем буке. Да ли сте знали које је најгласнија професија у свету? УПОЗОРЕЊЕ НА СПОЈЛЕРЕ: Инжењери за одржавање авиона. Они раде у областима аеродрома као што су хангари за одржавање, писте и рулне стазе. Изложени су нивоима буке од 120 до 140 dB. То је слично буци млазног мотора током полетања.
  • Ограничите изложеност: Кад год је то могуће, смањите време које проводите у бучном окружењу.
  • Узгред, напомена: Студије показују да дуготрајна употреба чепића за уши може изазвати нелагодност, инфекције уха, па чак и губитак слуха. Иако су практични, потребно их је често мењати и не могу се делити, што доводи до већих трошкова и отпада. Чепићи за уши пружају привремено олакшање. Зато је боље да размишљате дугорочно и размотрите правилно звучна изолација и акустична обрада.

Који ниво дБ треба да буде песма?

Добро миксована песма треба да има просечан ниво од -14 dB до -12 dB RMS, са врховима не вишим од -1 dB. Овај опсег обезбеђује јасноћу, динамику и пријатно искуство слушања на различитим системима за репродукцију. Правилно балансиран звук не само да побољшава искуство слушања већ и чува интегритет музике.

Знамо да свако има ОВУ ЈЕДНУ ПЕСМУ код које не можете а да не појачате звук на максимум. У реду је све док се песма не понавља пречесто.

Препознавање када је музика прегласна

Музика може бити прегласна ако вам ствара нелагодност у ушима, изазива зујање или вам отежава да чујете након што завршите са слушањем. Можете користити посебан алат који се зове децибелометар да бисте проверили колико је музика гласна. Ако мерач показује да је ниво звука већи од 85 dB, добра је идеја да смањите јачину звука или направите паузе.

Који је најбољи dB за квалитет звука?

Најбоља јачина звука за добар квалитет звука је она која звучи јасно, има све музичке детаље и пријатна је за слушаоце. Када стварате музику, покушајте да циљате на просечан ниво јачине звука између -14 dB и -12 dB RMS. На концертима уживо, уверите се да је звук довољно гласан да остави утисак, али не толико гласан да изазове изобличење или да повређује уши. Све се своди на равнотежу.

  • Да ли сте знали? Звук може обликовати нашу перцепцију времена. Студије показују да људи имају тенденцију да прецене трајање времена када су изложени бржем ритму, а потцене га код споријег ритма.
  • Професионални саветУвек користите висококвалитетну аудио опрему и добро је одржавајте како бисте осигурали прецизну репродукцију звука и избегли непотребно повећање јачине звука ради компензације лошег квалитета звука.

Запамтите, децибели су веома важни у музици и аудио записима. Они могу утицати на то колико је звук добар и колико је безбедан за ваше уши. Познавањем и контролом нивоа јачине звука можете осигурати да је звук одличан и заштитити свој слух. Није битно да ли сте тонски инжењер, композитор, сценски извођач или једноставно волите звук, разумевање децибела је изузетно важно како бисте били сигурни да све звучи баш како треба.
