Hello! I’m Stéphane Pigeon, the creator and sole person behind myNoise. From recording the sounds and creating the soundscapes to coding the audio engine and maintaining the website, I handle every part of this project. My goal is to bring you a high-quality sound experience that helps improve your life.
Maintaining myNoise comes with significant costs, not just in delivering high-quality audio, but also in producing and recording the unique soundscapes you enjoy. Many have suggested I charge for the site, but I’ve always believed in keeping it free and accessible to everyone. That’s why I chose a donation model.
However, only a tiny fraction of users donate—about 0.25%. I believe this is because many don’t realize how the site is funded. So if myNoise has brought value to your life, please consider supporting it with a one-time or recurring donation. Your contribution keeps this resource available for everyone and is rewarded with lifetime bonuses—and, of course, my sincere gratitude.
Running a website like myNoise comes with significant expenses. Here’s a look at the main costs:
Altogether, the annual operating costs for myNoise come to $75,000, or about $6,000 per month.
When donations surpass this baseline, I can reinvest in additional activities that enhance the experience for users. For example, I love planning sampling trips abroad once or twice a year to gather new, unique sounds. Extra funds also enable the purchase of new equipment, which might not be critical to day-to-day operations but significantly enhances the variety and quality of sounds available on the website.
Take drop cache recordings as an example—leaving sensitive recording equipment outdoors in varied weather conditions is a risky venture. I wouldn’t take that risk if I could only afford one set of gear. However, with financial flexibility, I can afford to pursue unique recording opportunities that push the boundaries of what myNoise offers.
When support exceeds the essential needs of the project, I can invest in better tools and technology, ensuring that I deliver an even higher-quality experience for users. I’m a perfectionist, and having the right tools enhances both my work and the results.
Lastly, I’m proud to give back by supporting charitable causes each year. For instance, I fund tree-planting initiatives to help preserve the natural habitats from which many of my sound recordings originate. myNoise plants 6,000 trees per year with Gaine de Vie at a cost of $1,750. Beyond environmental efforts, I also contribute to causes that support people in need, hoping that my project can make a positive difference not just through sound, but in other meaningful ways as well.
