    Lawnmowers, helicopters, vacuum cleaners, hairdryers.

    Although, it does not bug me until I’m flinching from the build up of chinese water torture all over on my nerves and I’m flopping around on the floor like I’m being electrocuted, with a full bore panic attack having the universe rapidly collapse on me over and over, possibly crapping myself too. Very unpleasant.

    And worst about it, no one will stop, nor even make any accommodation for me, not even like merely shouting “lawnmower” to warn me when it’s starting (or better yet, earlier, to let me get mega-dosed up on thiamine & benfotiamine, minerals, b-vits, cbd, ashvagandha, etc, and get noise cancelling headphones (+working batteries), and go to toilet before driving away out of earshot).

      Try listening to a helicopter sound track extended sometime but with a low pass filter, it is very pleasing you may find

        No.

        Your suggestion caused me alarm and distress.

        Obviously that’s a no-go for me.

          Fair enough, lets set aside the helicopter example.

          Do you have experience playing around with audio stuff like filters, changing pitch/tempo etc?

            Some might say, a vast amount of such experience.

            … Something like 20 albums released of soundscape/drone/zonk/ambient stuff made almost entirely in audacity (/tenacity/sneedacity). Nearly all made with a leaning to sound therapy.

            Why do you ask?
