I find it very effectively masks barking neighbourhood dogs and dripping water. Most pleasant has been a Surf Sound Generator I built from a kit around 40 years ago. It adds 3 long-period (several seconds) RC oscillators, which amplitude modulate the slightly pink noise. Their different periods keep them out of phase, like random waves whooshing up a beach. A little bit of low-pass filtering of white noise makes it a bit pink. I find modest low frequency emphasis more relaxing - and perhaps a little better at masking, as it is the low frequencies which travel. And it's cheaper than double or triple glazing. Erik
