Weird question - can you hear the rain drops falling on it when it rains? I have a smaller velux in my bathroom and whenever it rains it can be heard. I'd like to install a balcony velux in my bedroom, but I'm hesitant if the raindorop noise can be heard.
The VELUX Cabrio Roof Window is made with laminated glass which will reduce exterior sounds including rain drops. (depending on the severity) You can also add a shade to your roof window or to your existing skylight which would also aid in this reduction.
