3 Uses of White Noise in the Office
How do you regain lost time in the office? Well, you can’t ban cell phones and texting, but you can take control of all the noise heard round the office. Rather than try to control noise, why not moderate it? With white noise, you actually add noise to tune out noise. By adding low-level unstructured noise from all over the sound spectrum, you allow your brain to tune out potentially distracting sounds and focus in on work. Here are 3 common uses of white noise.
-
An emitter, or speaker, for a sound masking system
Free White Noise Generator: a free online generator that can be customized by the user.
- Sonet Sound System: A great individual solution for noise that is even and effective and doesn’t require any specialized knowledge.
- Sound Masking: The best office-wide sound solution with invisible uniform distribution through speakers in the ceiling tiles.
Choosing which form of white noise to implement is largely dependent upon how large a group you need coverage for. Ideally, every office would install sound masking, thus protecting the time of every employee. However, not all businesses have a budget to cover that and some companies have opted for individual systems, such as the Sonet. The main difference is how much space is treated. It’s up to you to decide what your company needs and how valuable your time is.
