Here is an interesting consideration:

Static noise has the most rich, complex texture but no pitch.

A sine tone has the most defined pitch but the smoothest, least complicated, most minimal texture.

Listening to either for a prolonged period isn't as nice as listening to music. Both of them become monotonous in their own way. Although you can definitely meditate to a sine tone. But what about static noise? It's so random and complicated that the temptation is just to switch off your brain and it all becomes one homogeneous texture.

I meditate to silence, it's the only thing that can completely calm me down in this world anymore.

I just thought static noise encapsulated all white noise, pink noise, etc... I have ringing in my ears so I can't hear total silence :(

so basically what do you want to know?
i don't understand this thing about static noise and sine waves, what's the matter.

:Although you can definitely meditate to a sine tone.
What does this mean? You can "meditate" to a sine tone? lol

Pink noise? Is that the kind of noise they use in ponystep?

I love the sound of distortion. Heavy guitars or distorted synths... Yes. :3
