03 — WHEN TO USE IT
For work that depends on language.
Nearby conversation is unusually difficult to ignore because your brain keeps trying to decode it. This mix replaces intelligible speech with a steady, meaningless background: brown noise fills the low end, the river breaks up repetition, and the fan smooths the middle frequencies where voices tend to remain noticeable.
Use the same sound at the start of each work block so it becomes a simple context cue. Keep the level low, pause it during breaks, and treat the recipe as a starting point rather than a rule. This is a focus aid, not a medical treatment.
04 — FAQ
Deep Focus Mix, answered.
What is in the Deep Focus Mix?
The starting recipe is 50% brown noise, 30% flowing river and 20% steady fan. Brown noise forms the low foundation, river adds natural texture, and fan softens nearby speech without introducing melody or lyrics.
How long does the mix play?
The browser player loops 20-second previews so you can test the balance immediately. In NoiseTape, each component is a seamless source loop that can continue for an open-ended work session or stop with the sleep timer.
How loud should a focus mix be?
Keep it only loud enough to make nearby speech less intelligible. If the mix itself keeps pulling your attention, turn the master volume down. Background sound should disappear into the task rather than compete with it.
