I get constructive and deconstructive, but those are usually in the context of being the same frequency and just being out of phase. I’m talking like…you and your bud having a conversation in a restaurant, with music playing, convos around you, sound of wait staff, etc. If a waiter drops a plate, how does that sound transit through at that higher, unique frequency through all the other noise so that all can hear it?
Thank you for your time!

There aren’t multiple sound waves – just one. All the different sound sources add their own bits to that sound wave and your brain somehow deconstructs that sound wave into its constituent parts. It only sounds like different things because your brain infers it.
