What Is This?
The Noise Sensitivity Mixer is an interactive sound environment tool that lets you fine-tune your auditory world — attenuating specific frequency bands, reducing transient noise, adding white noise masking, and enabling dynamic compression — to create a personalised sonic landscape for focus and calm.
Why It Exists
For neurodivergent people with auditory sensitivity, unpredictable sound environments are not just uncomfortable — they're cognitively disabling. Generic noise-cancelling headphones treat all sound the same. This mixer treats sound the way it actually affects your nervous system: as a configurable environment you can control.
Who It's For
- ▸Individuals with auditory hypersensitivity (common with ADHD, autism, sensory processing differences)
- ▸People who struggle to focus in open offices, cafes, or any unpredictable sonic environment
- ▸Anyone who finds certain sound frequencies or sudden noises disproportionately distracting or distressing
How It Works
Using frequency band sliders (250Hz, 1kHz, 4kHz), you attenuate the specific frequencies that bother you most. You add white noise masking, control transient noise reduction, and optionally enable dynamic range compression. Your configuration is saved as a downloadable JSON profile for import into compatible audio processing software.
You get:
- ▸A personalised sonic profile with your exact frequency preferences
- ▸Transient noise reduction settings
- ▸White noise masking calibration
- ▸A downloadable JSON file for use in audio apps
- ▸Unlimited saved profiles
What Makes It Different
This is not a white noise app. It's a frequency-level sound environment designer built around the specific triggers that affect neurodivergent auditory systems.
