What is drone?

This may be a dumb question, but I see everybody talking about it and don't know what it means.

Its the Humming sound from exhaust when driving.... usually a consistent, steady, unchanging tone in the middle and high rpm band that tends to annoy the hell out of everyone in the car.

Thanks. Looking for exhaust that has a deep rumble for my SS on order. I know Flowmaster used to be good back in the day, but alot of comments about the "drone" they have.

I hated that "WAA WAA WAA WAA WAA" sound at 60mph...I had to accelerate to 70-75 or so to get rid of it.

I have NO drone in my current set up.

It IS expensive....but an AWESOME exhaust. Stainless Works.... Go check'em out.
