About White noise generator

White noise has equal energy at every frequency, pink noise lowers the highs for a softer sound, and brown noise is deeper still, like a distant waterfall. Mix them with rain, ocean or fan sounds to mask traffic, help focus or fall asleep, and set a sleep timer to stop playback.

How to use White noise generator

  1. Pick a sound such as white, pink or brown noise, rain, ocean or fan.
  2. Adjust the volume to a level that is quiet but covers background noise.
  3. Set the sleep timer and press play so the sound stops by itself.

Frequently asked questions

Which noise is best for sleeping?

It is personal. Many people prefer pink or brown noise or steady rain because they sound less harsh than white noise. Try each at a low volume and keep it below loud levels all night.

What volume should I use?

Keep it low, just enough to cover distracting sounds. Loud noise for long periods is not good for your ears, so avoid playing it at high volume through headphones.
