Also referred to as brown noise, technically it’s a type of noise whose power density (spectral loudness) decreases 6 dB per octave with increasing frequency. It has a bass-heavy sound, akin to the sound of the surf at a distance. It can also be used a slowly changing random control voltage or modulation signal, instead of as an audio source.
