Very nice. I quite like the fan option; don't think I've seen it in other noise generators. The drone of it is good. A 'warehouse fan' option that's a little more bass-y and a little slower would be cool.

For some reason fans / lawnmower type sounds have always been the most relaxing for me, e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcxeZ4Wwdn0 (edit: and now that I post that, a lawnmower sound would be fantastic, but I don't know how much of a weird outlier I am.)

But I completly agree, the fan is too bassy for me also

Don't want to hurt you, dear friend, but a lawnmower sound is quite strange to relax

Could it be that it's not the sound itself but the association with lazy summer weekend afternoons, lawnmower in the distance, that is the relaxing part?

Shurely, it's already sounds awesome!
