What is Sound Masking?

Sound masking is an innovative acoustic solution that adds a subtle, engineered background sound to an environment to reduce the intelligibility of human speech and minimize distracting noises. Unlike white noise, sound masking is specifically tuned to the frequency of human speech, making conversations less understandable and intrusive without creating an uncomfortable or noticeable sound.

Why Sound Masking Works

Our brains naturally focus on speech and conversation, even when we're trying to concentrate on other tasks. Sound masking effectively "covers" these distracting sounds by raising the ambient noise floor in a controlled, comfortable way, allowing your mind to focus on what matters most.

The technology works by emitting a carefully calibrated spectrum of sound that masks speech frequencies, typically in the 125Hz to 8kHz range. This creates a more consistent acoustic environment where sudden noises and conversations don't stand out as sharply, leading to improved concentration and privacy.
