The OFFICIAL Binaural Beat Thread

Migrated topic.
It is late and I'd love to read all the pages of this thread, and maybe say something about binaural beats or reply to anyone of you ...

But I'll do that later, though it also seems that the thread has been dead for over half a year :(
I will give you something though!

I did check the thread, and seems like noone mentioned "mynoise" yet.

Binaural beats generator can be found here.

It is a great site, I'm sure many of you will benefit from it.

Peace and love!
 
I've started to experiment with binaural beats and am keeping a strict "trip journal" on my experiences.
Did anybody of you had the feeling of falling asleep on DMT?

I've been meditating ~10 minutes to this binaural beat

Theta 7HZ

and then smoking doses of 30mg, 25mg and 20mg on consecutive days.
All I experience on this frequency is the onset of the DMT trip, then a blackout until the moment I come back which is after 4-5 minutes. When I tried 30mg I thought that the dose might have been too high even though I usually enjoy my 30mg trips but am now almost positive that I simply fall asleep without having any visions or at least none that I can remember.

Is there anybody else who has experienced something similar? I'm incredibly well rested after the session but at the same time I am angry with myself for falling asleep instead of traveling.

I'll continue my experiment with Delta Waves, Hemi/Holosync, Lifeflow and report in.
 
Because it hasn't been mentioned before:

I-Doser = costly SBaGen rip-off

I-Doser uses SBaGen as its binaural beat engine. SBaGen's source code has always been licensed by its author (Jim Peters) under the GNU GPLv2. Up until June 2007, I-Doser was distributed in violation of SBaGen's license. However, an agreement was reached between Jim Peters and I-Doser in June 2007, as below.

Ive yet to see anyone mention this yet, but humming in conjunction with the tone either at, or slightly above or slightly below pitch can REALLY get some absolutely fantastic resonance going through your head.

Pick your beat of choice and then simply change the pitch of your hum to suit. It's awesome.

I have yet to be really successful with using BB's, but I really enjoy picking one and humming along. it's incredibly soothing and is great for clarity.


Also, what Shoe said on pg2 is truly fantastic and I am going to certainly go with this at the forefront of my mind next time.

"the highest trips are 1) outside, at peace, with nature. 2) meditating 3) ritualised 4) with an allready positive, healthy, happy, balanced life, when you are feeling well. if you can combine all four, then your onto a winner that's going to have strongly positive, enlightening effects for you. I must highlight though that if you go to the spice wanting these things then you will merely experience a reflection of yourself, wanting. joyfuly give up the colourful distractions offered, go for the heart; the highest, the deepest. Go to DMT with a pure intention: to spread love. smoke it in the morning, when you're feeling healthy and revitalised and full of energy. Don't smoke it at 11pm at night with a beer and a joint!! I know you can do better Sad please. I tell you this because I know what DMT under the right circumstances can actually do for you; and it is so far removed from what dmt under the wrong circumstances actually does; and If I can help with your spiritual development, well then I've achieved something."

I would have to dig to find it again, but I have seen a study which displayed a great list of treatments for tinnitus and as I recall... Techniques similar to binaural beats were clearly some of the most effective treatment, when taking into account negative side-effects. (In a clinical setting with professional supervision.)

If you'd listen to binaural beats while on psychedelic's, what frequency would be best? I suspect that on most psychedelic's you'd rather want to go to higher than to lower frequency's.
I believe that in this recent LSD study that got so much media attention, it was said that LSD causes more alpha, as well as more gamma activity. So i guess that you could try both alpha as well as gamma frequency's on LSD. Has anybody got any experience with this?

Alpha freq is associated with meditation states, so 4-7hz should be okay.
 
I've been reading up on the methodology behind BBs.
From what I understand, in order to achieve a BB effect of 20htz - one must have the frequency difference of left and right ears equal to 20htz. So for example 530htz left and 550htz right?

Here's my question/concern.
The least common multiple of 530 and 550 is 29150.
29150 divided by 1000ms is 29.15 seconds.
So every 29.15 seconds the two waveforms synch exactly with each other for one revolution respective to their hertz value (the waves start at exactly the same time). Is this the true htz value for the binaural beat?
0.02915htz.
Or Is taking the brain into consideration as a third variable what gives the BB effect of 20htz.

EDIT: For a simpler example.
Theta (5htz) has a wavelength of 200ms. 5 cycles per second.
The only two frequencies that can possibly be combined to give an affective wavelength of 200ms are 20htz and 25htz.
20htz = 50ms wavelength.
25htz = 40ms wavelength.
The lowest common multiple of 40 and 50 is 200.
So for every 5 cycles @ 25htz there are 4 cycles @ 20htz.
The two waveforms synchronise at 200ms.

Hope that makes sense

Someone had to try this, so i did. And it does indeed intensify the effects of at least LSD, but probably other classic psychedelics as well.

A combination of theta and gamma would probably be more effective, even.

There's an error in this calculation. Why divide the least common multiple by 1000ms? And surely there will be coincident waveforms every 0.1 seconds because of their common divisor being 10. In 100 ms there are 53 cycles at 530 Hz and 55 cycles at 550 Hz. This equates to a 10 Hz beat frequency (as I see it, without resorting to paper calculations), and is an octave value corresponding to the 20 Hz difference.
