Frequently Asked Questions

Can you hear sound masking?

Yes, sound masking, when properly designed, dynamically improves comfort and collaboration in the workspace by gently raising the ambient background sound uniformly with a clean, consistently random, broadband, non-intrusive sound. The scientifically engineered sound is amplified through individual speakers installed above or in the ceiling throughout the space to create a uniform field of sound that ensures temporal and spatial uniformity.

How is sound masking different from white noise or soundproofing?

Sound masking is specifically designed to cover speech and other noises for privacy, while white noise is a consistent, unstructured noise used mainly for relaxation or to mask sounds randomly.

Sound masking’s purpose is to cover the speech as a component to sound proofing so speech is private. Sound proofing for speech privacy may have several diverse components–absorptive materials like insulation or blocking materials like sealants. Sound proofing is held to a higher expectation and measurement (think waterproof vs water resistant).

Is it hard to install in our space?

Sound masking systems can be easily installed in existing buildings by placing speakers above ceiling tiles or mounting them strategically throughout the space. The system is then calibrated to match the acoustics of the area, ensuring effective coverage without disrupting the current setup.

How much does it cost?

It depends on the needs of the specific customer and local regulations. If the sound masking system is related to a architectural design for a commercial building, then, the pricing would be different than for schools.

Does sound masking eliminate all noise in a space?

No, sound masking doesn’t eliminate all noise. Sound masking adds a subtle background sound designed to mask conversations and other distracting noises, making them less noticeable. This helps create a more acoustically comfortable environment without eliminating beneficial background sounds entirely.

Does sound masking really work?

Yes — and it’s backed by science. Sound masking works by introducing a soft, engineered background sound (similar to an HVAC hum) that reduces how clearly you hear speech and distractions. This makes conversations less intelligible and helps you stay focused.
