Making Your Own Binaural Tones :o

6 comments March 11th, 2009

When making your own binaural tone, you mainly need knowledge. Through my articles and blog I will try and give you as much information as I can, but always keep your eyes and ears open for other information.

When you listen to a specific tone for a specific time you will get into a specific state. It is important to get the exact tone and timeline correct to achieve maximal effect.  This is allready done when you buy a binaural tone, but when you start to make them yourself it is highly recommended to first do the proper research. You don’t want to listen to a tone and end up with a headache now would you?

A quick overview of the different waves and their functions:

> 40 Hz - Gamma waves - Higher mental activity, including perception, problem solving, fear, and consciousness.

13-40 Hz - Beta waves - Active, busy or anxious thinking and active concentration, arousal, cognition.

7-13 Hz - Alpha waves - Relaxation (while awake), pre-sleep and pre-wake drowsiness.

4-7 Hz - Theta waves - Dreams, deep meditation, REM sleep.

< 4 Hz - Delta waves - Deep dreamless sleep, loss of body awareness.

Once you know the basics and have listened to many different types of binaural tones, you have to start creating your own binaural tones. This can be quite challenging. If you have just started venturing in the binaural world then don’t worry about this yet. First enjoy the results of a few binaural tones, you can pick them up from here.

Good Luck
