Violet noise is sure annoying.
White noise does not discriminate by age. It has energy per decade.White noise is politically incorrect. It should be all persons noise.
Pink noise does not discriminate bye. It has equal power per decade.
Ugh. That is exactly what I have always known and I foolishly changed it after Googling a (false) reference before posting. I will fix it. Thanks.Uh, white noise has equal energy per decade; pink noise has equal energy per octave.
So, to avoid age discrimination, use white noise. As for pink noise, I ain't going there. Maybe it's more musical?
Pink noise sounds like the ocean, which is satisfying and comforting in some primal way nested deep in our brains. White noise sounds like noise.Most folk find audio pink noise (equal energy per octave, downward slope with frequency) more pleasing the white nose (equal energy per decade, flat slope).

The concept of noise and pleasing does not compute with most folks. I won't belabor my soft spot for Japanoise music, though I have not studied the spectra of Masonna or Merzbow.
