Anyone got a link to somewhere I can find some Pink noise I can use?

Tune your TV to a blank station. That's pretty close.

oh that you can use, record it!

No, I mean REAL PINK NOISE to use to evaluate a room.

Don't know how much more 'real' it gets.

Emeric,
Perhaps I should have been more specific as to my use. I thought that in the context of "Studio Building and Display" a request for Pink Noise pretty much tipped you off as to what I needed it for. -But- I know people use the "view new posts" and don't realize what Forum they're under all the time so here is my purpose.....
I'm just a geek who reads too much about audio and recording. I've got a small setup, and I wanted to push some Pink noise out through my system, capture it with a mic, and see if there's any notches or peaks in the spectrum, possibly tipping me off that I might need to treat my room.
Wouldn't my teeny POS TV speaker (and for that matter, my POS TV) be incapable of producing frequencies below a certain point, and therefore not be a very good source for my use? Aren't we mostly concerned with low frequency modes being a problem?
So, do you still suggest that I use a sound recorded from my TV????????????

I think Wavelab has a pink noise and sweep generator, TDK makes a lens cleaning CD which also has a bunch of test tones and pink noise on it, Alan Parsons also put out a CD with test tones and pink noise on it (among other things).
Maybe you can get a similar CD at an Audiophile store.

Yeah sorry Queue, I forget what forum I'm in sometimes.
I think vox is right, wavelab will generate pink noise. I'll take a look.
Yes it does,
Here's an attachment.

No I guess there is not an attachment, invalid format. If you wan't a wav file of it let me know, I'll post it somewhere else.

Actually, before you start off with white or pink noise, I'd recommend acquiring a cheap frequency generator. This way, you can send off one frequency at a time (80hz to 20,000hz), and check for abnomilies in the room. With the full spectrum of sound frequencies, sometimes you can get weird partial cancellations from higher frequencies that are harmonics of lower frequencies, and it can be difficult to troubleshoot.

frederic,
Good point. I'll prolly go the cheap route and generate the frequencies with software...
