Scientific studies have shown that a moderate level of ambient noise can improve focus and creativity. For students who prefer the clattering of plates and the chatter from a nearby table to the quietness of their bedroom, we have created a calm cafe atmosphere where you can stay as long as you need without having to order drinks.
Each slider controls a particular audio stream; adjust sliders to taste and mood. The animation button turns the soundscape into an slowly evolving texture. Use this feature if you intend to listen to the generator over a long period of time!

Whenever I listed to calm cafe, I pair it with an associated weather sound that matches my environment. Today, it has been raining on and off all day. I am using Tin Roof Rain (Another Rainy Day) at a very low setting so that it sounds as if it is raining outside of the cafe I am in. Since I cannot go to my local cafe to work right now, this really hits the spot. All I am missing is a fancy latte!

I pair this great generator with Tin Roof Rain, it really sets the mood of a little café on a busy, yet still sleepy, street on an autumn morning. I use it for studying and writing, it's a lifesaver!

I didn't realize how much I needed this generator until I heard it.

I was just looking for a background voices generator! I set it to Chatter Only and fired up Spotify's Tavern Music playlist for the fantasy feast scene I'm writing :)

This combines my favorite sounds from café, examination time, suburb, and tanker in a really novel way... and it sounds exactly like my favorite local coffee shop. Yay!
♥
Combine these settings with the first 3 and last 4 settings of Cafe Restaurant, and you've got a great noise blocker for focusing on the task at hand.

A new favorite! This is great stimulus for writing. It gets the creative juices flowing, but isn't overwhelming. I pair it with distant sound of the ocean to imagine my favorite cafe on the Oregon coast. Thanks Stephane!

This reminds me so much of the little library cafe where I have writing conferences with my students -- without the loud (but nonetheless beloved) espresso machine.
