Sorry I do not think I am going to be a lot of help here. Recommendation: The best thing to do is to get out of the open office environment, I find that I am greatly affected by background distractions. I have had five fold productivity increases when working from home or in some other comfortable place away from the mad office. If that fails, I have used "Bose QuietComfortR 15 Acoustic Noise CancellingR headphones" (http://worldwide.bose.com/axa/en_au/web/quietcomfort_15/page.html) which are great at cancelling out the background road sounds on the bus, but pretty useless at the higher frequency office sounds. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Noise-cancelling_headphones#Real-world_per formance_of_noise-cancelling_headphones for a discussion on this. The best solution is that everyone has a work cubical with a lot of sound deadening material and meetings happen in meeting rooms, not at desks.

Hi All So that I can concentrate better, I am trying to filter out the mouse clicking sound from person at the desk next to me. Has anyone any tech recommendations on how to do this?
