What is Brown Noise?

The various sounds - brown, white and pink - differ in terms of variation. While some can be low in terms of frequency, others might be in the mid-range and rest in high-range. A good example would be the sound of the wind and the rain; depending on the density and what range of sound it is producing.

However, the main question here is, what is the Brown noise, and why is it generating such a stir on the internet?

In terms of frequency, the brown noise is deep and strong at the lower end. While it is well known that music helps people relax, particularly those with neurodevelopmental disorders such as ADHD, it is yet to be established whether this noise is the ideal one for those with such disabilities.

A good example of brown noise would be a strong waterfall.

A lot of people consider the titular noise to be better than white noise, which is somewhat similar to the former; the only difference being that the former is much deeper, and this is what helps people feel calm and composed.
