Colors of noise loudness curve (such as an inverted A-weighting curve) over a given range of frequencies, giving the listener the perception that it is equally loud at all frequencies.

There are also many colors used without precise definitions (or as synonyms for formally defined colors), sometimes with multiple definitions. In telecommunication, the term noisy white has the following meanings: In telecommunication, the term noisy black has the following
