If you've ever reviewed an entire investigation’s worth of ghost hunting recordings only to be left guessing at whether a faint sound was a possible EVP or just background static, you're not alone. White noise has long been a double-edged sword in EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomenon) sessions-used as a spirit communication aid but often interfering with audio clarity. That’s why serious investigators are focused on white noise reduction as the key to unlocking more convincing and intelligible EVPs.

White noise is the static, hissing background sound generated by spirit boxes and similar devices. While it’s thought to help spirits communicate by offering a soundbed to manipulate, too much white noise can drown out the very voices you’re trying to capture . This can make evidence harder to review and even lead to false positives or misinterpretation.

The goal isn’t to eliminate all noise-some is necessary for spirit manipulation-but to reduce the overwhelming static so the intelligent responses come through clearer .

Two products stand out when it comes to white noise reduction without compromising EVP potential: the  SB11 ANC Spirit Box and the  ANC Mini .

The SB11 ANC builds on the popular SB11 dual sweep spirit box but adds something extrar: Active Noise Control (ANC) .

• Filters out white noise in real time
  
  

• Dual sweep functionality lets you scan both AM and FM simultaneously
  
  

• ANC can be turned on or off to fit your investigative style
  
  

• Perfect for serious EVP sessions where clarity matters most
  
  

With ANC engaged, EVPs are no longer buried under waves of static -making your evidence stronger and your sessions more efficient.
