http://mynoise.net is probably the best thing that has happened to my programming career.

I always hated working in open offices and used to play the same white noise over and over again.

With myNoise, every day is different... sometimes I "visit" a Japanese shrine... sometimes I'm on a ship in the middle of a storm... other times, I'm in the middle of suburb living memory lane while listening to the birds and lawnmowers driving around...

The best part of the site is how you can customize every single generators. On the generator pages, there's user testimonials with little heart icons. When you click the icon, it loads the exact preset that the person leaving the review had customized. The site is endless with possibilities.

Stéphane, the developer, has a Slack channel going for the premium users (donation based) and is super friendly to requests.

I'm probably one of the site's top fans and I can't recommend it enough.

I second mynoise.net -- Their tone generators sound significantly better than any others I've used. My personal favorite is their "Binaural Harmonics" tones: http://mynoise.net/NoiseMachines/pureBinauralBrainwaveGenera...

There's a new feature where you can now build your own generator by cherry-picking stems from the entire catalog (192 generators as of last week's count).

Not sure why so many places do this. Their account database has to be polluted with 1 time only logins (the majority like you and I just exit before creation). Asking for an account before anything is the quickest way to make sure I'll never think of your product again. This is like internet behaviour 101.

To Brainfm: Five to ten seconds of time is generous of users to give, you have to make it count.

I too would explore this if there was a way that didn't require me to create an account.

You don't need an account to visit https://mynoise.net/noiseMachines.php

The only exceptions being the super generators which are pages where multiples sound generators are mixed together on the same page.

Edit: It was confusing how this message is under the myNoise discussion thread. The parent comment of my answer was talking about Brain.fm

Opening the link and clicking on a channel worked for me; no login prompts to be found.

Hey Swozey, sorry for slow reply. HN is rate limiting me because I have a new account. I can confirm that Google Auth is coming in our next big release in January. While mynoise is great, I've used it in the past the main difference is we are trying to make music do more than just provide ambient noise. Hopefully you can give us a shot!

If you haven't already, you can email the mods via the Contact link in the footer. They can provisionally remove the new-account rate limit.

I've had no trouble registering my trial using Mailinator.com - no confirmation needed anyway.
