So white noise machines work at masking unwanted noise?
- but can your neighbours still hear it? I have recently bought a Marpac 980 sound conditioner to mask uncontrollable noise from next door (and my partner snoring) and was wondering if the neighbours would still be able to hear it. It works at filling the room with white noise and is very noticeable (i am still getting used to it) and though it has the desired effect in blocking out other noise i am wondering if the neighbours could hear it. I don’t know what the frequency of this device is but if someone could explain how this works, it would be really appreciated. Thanks Ex
The sound that you hear belongs in a certain frequency range. Going from low pitched sound to high pitched sounds.
White noise generators fill the gaps in that frequency range therefore masking the disturbing sounds. So, basically it makes all sounds sound more alike and more indistinguishable from the noise generator by adding sound.
As for neighbors hearing it, if it is on loud enough, sure. But, i doubt it really goes that loud.
