I've settled on this over the years:

    play -c 2 --null synth brownnoise reverb bass 6 treble -3
It's close to the myNoise brown preset, IMO, if a little bass heavier.

Just tried this, as a longtime ambient electronic fan I totally understand what brought me there. Instant calm for my noisy mind using:

play -c 2 --null synth brownnoise reverb bass 10 treble -6

Diagnosed around 40, concerta helps with focus but does not provide a calming effect.

Thanks for this eye opener!

`Brew install sox` for those wondering how to get this working on macos.

I love all of your variations, thank you so much for this! I combined them into this one, which I really like, but I think I will play around a bit more :)

`play -n -n --combine merge synth brownnoise band -n 550 550 tremolo 50 1 vol -17dB reverb bass 10 treble -6`
