Calming sounds

sound to soften the edges

A steady background sound can help mask sudden noise and settle the mind. Choose one, or blend several into your own mix, set your volume, and stay as long as you like.

A quick guide

which sound, and when

White noise

An even, full hiss that covers a wide range of sounds. Good for masking chatter or sudden noises.

Pink noise

Softer and deeper than white, like steady rain. Many people find it gentler for focus or sleep.

Brown noise

Deeper still, a low rumble like distant surf. A favourite for calm and concentration.

Blue noise

Brighter and airier than white, weighted to higher tones. Some find it crisp and clearing for focus.

Green noise

A gentle mid-range wash, often likened to soft nature ambience. Steady and easy in the background.

Grey noise

Balanced to sound even across what the ear hears, so no part feels too sharp or too dull.

Violet noise

The brightest, weighted to the highest tones. A thin, airy hiss some use to soften ringing in the ears.

High-quality nature soundscapes are on the way. Rain, ocean and a crackling fire will join the list soon.
