What are the most unconventional sources of white noise you use?
I have started listening to random American city council meetings lately for white noise. Since they're all bureaucratic-flavored boredom anyway.

Not too weird, but I found this accidentally: a subwoofer under my bed (the speakers that came with it broke)
I found a ten hour long brown noise mp3 that is set to loop indefinitely on an old burner phone. Through the subwoofer it sounds exactly like the warp engines from Star Trek TNG. Incredibly comforting, and hard to sleep without
That's the most Lemmy response I've ever read, I love it.
Hahhahah
I'm a reddit refugee who always lurked. Hah I'm trying to be more active on Lemmy so imma take that as a compliment
There are actually videos of warp engine noise.
Have you found a way to loop that MP3 with crossfade? My current problem is there’s a small noticeable gap of silence between repeated tracks.
Man I know, and I tried them. None of them were quite right, they didn't accomplish what I wanted. Like the sound on the show is just a little different in real life. Part of it I think, is the treble (insert tribble joke)
It really all clicked when I fucked up and broke the speakers so it's all coming from the subwoofer
Also no I didn't solve that problem, I'm using an app called blackplayer, every ten hours it fades in and out for like a three second period. That's on my to-do list to fix, but not a priority because it doesn't bother me too much
Ok that’s actually really rad. I’m gonna have to fuck around a bit and see if I can do smth similar.
Logitech z313 is what I got, I just checked my order history and it was like $57. I'm going to try to track down a link for the audio file I use. I have the file, but I don't remember the source
I was thinking I could grab one from goodwill. It just needs to be the subwoofer that has the input and it’s g2g.
That'd probably be fine. I mean I haven't tested it a lot, but I think the secret sauce is just that it's all bass from the subwoofer. Let me know how it goes
