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!

From what I’ve read, and someone please correct me if I’m wrong- sounds work on multiple wave lengths and frequencies. For a sound to cancel out another sound, it has the be the exact same frequency as the opposing sound, and typically only cancels said sound when one’s peak (the maximum amount) coincides/occurs during the opposing sounds Trough, which is the sounds lowest point of pressure.
