White, pink, and brown noise explained by Coleman Lowndes.

[ThePiMan]

White noise sounds like steam hissing.
Pink noise sounds like rainfall.
Brown noise sounds like ocean waves.

Pink and brown are by FAR the best ones, couldn’t help a pleased smile when they came on :)

[hunterp]

Violet noise woke up and chose violence

[sampsqwantch]

"there are several different types of noise"

my upstairs neighbor: *CORRECT*

[MrCil]

They all sound like different stages in deep frying 😅

Put white, pink, and brown noise together to achieve the fabled _N E A P O L I T A N N O I S E_

Brown noise reminds me of sleeping in the car on long road trips, makes me feel so comfortable

[omori]

White noise sounds most comfortable for me personally, I didn’t realise that people thought it was harsh

You might be wondering why they're named after colors. The sound frequency profiles are named to be analogous to lightwave frequency profiles. When it comes to light, red light has more lower frequencies, while blue light has more higher frequencies. White light has a fairly even mix of all light frequencies.

Black noise is when my family won't shut up.

Brown noise is defenitly the best one. It sounds like several relaxing things, for example: rain, the ocean, a fan or the air conditioner.

I really liked the gray! Brown was pretty good as well and Violet was just a problem.

[micsunday]

Brownnoise sounded like rain. It was definitely relaxing

[Noober_]

Ive always wanted to hear what <color> sounds like!

contrary to what I've heard, my pants remain pristine

[rosesareblue]

There's a video I use to fall asleep to when it's too quiet, it's a mix of white, pink, and brown noise. I call it neopoletan noise.

Violet noise is also what pressurised gases produce when going through a small hole at high pressure! :)

[stevensavoie]

Now I know what an audio engineer meant when he said to "make it more brown". >.<

[aminaelo]

actually the brown sound is not named after the color brown but after the Robert Brown, who documented the erratic motion for multiple types of inanimate particles in water. (wikipedia)
