The sound is not actually a color. The u201cwhiteu201d simply describes the fact that this particular sound is a combination of every frequency. Thatu2019s why, deep in the soundscape playlists of the Internet, there are sounds called u201cbrownu201d or u201cpinku201d or even u201cblue.u201d Those sounds are not u201cwhite noiseu201d because some of their frequencies are being played at different amplitudes, intended to drown out very specific sounds.
