Interesting.

Pink, white etc, these are EE concepts, ie. these ideas come 
certainly not from musicians, but engineers.
As you have mentioned it is difficult to say which unit is the best,
without looking at the spectrum.

I always wondered why musicians cared about all that and
did not filter to their own needs, regardless of theory.
Perhaps the concepts of noise are very hard to understand.

It's also interesting that even "digital" synths are made
according to these theoretical cases and no one trys to
come up with something new. A kind of not well
understood tradition?

As long as noise is a sound source, these differences may be
tolerable, if not meaningless at all.

Of course, if one is going to have REAL randomnes -say for
composition- these things start to get important.

With filtering we can influence fluctuation rate,
any suggestions how we can influence level distribution?

m.c.
