Hi!

Cancelling the noise of your refrigeration units may not be as easy as
you think - how many independent units are there?

Each one will switch its compressor (i.e. the refrigeration pump) on &
off thermostatically according to the temperature inside the unit &
therefore even though the noise made by each compressor may be "static"
in nature, the aggregate noise generated by them all will vary as
individual units switch on & off independently of one another - none of
them should be on all of the time: if this is not the case then you
don't have adequate refrigeration capacity.

You'd have to "close mike" each unit separately & insert a reversed
phase signal from each through a mixing unit into your audio signal - &
even then you'll only be able to achieve one "dead zone" in which the
sound is cancelled. You would probably end up with *-greater-*
"compressor" noise in other areas where the introduced cancellation
signal itself was actually louder than the noise there from the
refrigeration units themselves...

How loud are these things anyway?
