Recreate Your Noisy Office with “The Sound of Colleagues”

Admit it, you miss the sound of your office. You could probably live without hearing some of your coworkers, but the hum of industrial A/C units, the click of keyboards, and the shuffling of printer paper helps you focus. But don’t worry, The Sound of Colleagues can help you bring those noises home.

The Sound of Colleagues is a white noise machine that emulates the sound of an office (minus some of the annoying sounds). It’s a straightforward free tool with adjustable sounds and ambient effects. Want to hear the sound of an open window? You got it. Tired of listening to the office dog? Mute him.
