What does it do you for.

21-Jan-2006, Raven

Q: "What does it do for you?" A: I think the only answer I can give is, "What is it that you want to do with it?" As stated, this is a theta induction. Theta is used for meditation, relaxation, lucid dreaming, etc. What it does depends largely on what you're using it for. If it "does" anything for you personally I'd be interested in hearing about it. By the way, the original overtone I used was much different than the one presented here (and in my opinion much more interesting and useful,) but was far too large to include on this website. As I recall it fell into the 31mb range. However, if anyone would like to have access to it I will upload it somewhere and make it available. ~R~

wow, great preset, do u think u could up that original plz thanx

29-Jan-2006, Raven

You are more than welcome to the original background sound. It's 21Mb, so be patient: http://www.savefile.com/files/1066456 Please, I hope no one takes my comment as a personal criticism, but I've perused the preset library site for quite some time before posting here. It's been my good fortune to have been involved in studying and teaching meditation techniques for over 30 years, and in having produced and marketed more than a few tapes and CDs to assist others in their search for greater fulfillment in their lives. Allow me to set forth a few points that may prove useful for those creating and using Bwgen presets. First, many people write presets that involve multiple binaural beat tracks. For example, they may write a tract with alpha, another with beta and two or three more intermixing theta and a couple of delta or what have you. These they interweave all at the same time. As "cool" as this seems the effect is less than useful. In fact it may prove to be stressful on the brain. A brief example may help clarify this. Suppose you attend a party with a room filled with. They are all broken up into cliques, each group chatting amongst themselves about every conceivable, unrelated subject imaginable. You move to the center of the room where you can hear more or less everything. The question is this: How much are you actually taking in? How much detail are you absorbing? Remember, you are trying to hear everything at once. You are not listening selectively to one group then to another. The answer, of course, is that you come away with virtually nothing. Nada. In fact you come away with worse than nothing because the longer you attempt to keep this up the greater your cognitive overload becomes and before long you'll find you develop a rather unpleasant headache. Time and again studies have born out the fact that our brainwaves form patterns of coherence. Many of our bodily functions seek patterns of coherence. Take the heart as an example. Give it a shock, throw it out of coherence and it goes into fibrillation. More than a few minutes of that and it ceases to function at all. It is true that in brainwave patterns there are moments during which the pattern alters, from an alpha state to a beta state, but those are aberrations, not something we should be attempting to induce. I've read countless comments responding to presets in this library such as, "I started off feeling very calm and relaxed, then I went OBE, then I felt very energized, and afterwards it left me feeling totally buzzed but a little bit anxious, etc." Such radical shifts in mood and emotional response are not to be sought after. They're the result of having sent your internal states into the equivalent of cardiac fibrillation. If you had been connected up to an EEG machine and monitored by a doctor you may rest assured they would have been greatly concerned over what was happening to you. To slowly move from one state, such as beta, through alpha, to theta, then spend time there is a healthy transition. But to have all these states assaulting your brain at the same time is like drinking draino with an arsenic chaser. A final thought before leaving my soapbox. Having worked with some very adept monks from Thailand I can say without hesitation that your brainwaves do not cause the altered states of consciousness you are seeking. They are a by-product of those states. However, we utilize them to assist us in reaching out towards those states and there is nothing wrong with that. Some comments by users here make it plain their sole purpose in using these software tools we have available to us are nothing more than a way to get some sort of cheap buzz. If that's really all you're into it for, try sniffing permanent magic markers. It's cheaper and faster. But if you really are in this to improve the quality of your life, forget about the descriptions people give of the presets they've come up with. Decide what area(s) of your life you'd like to improve upon, think about it often during your day so that your subconscious has time to digest and assimilate it, then choose a preset that caters to that particular pattern of brainwaves. Remember, on average it takes something along the lines of 8 minutes of continuous exposure to a particular brainwave pattern before your own mind really starts to emulate that wave pattern, so give it some time. And this business about "Oh, I can just let my mind drift along and think about anything that comes up and the brainwave patterns will magically do the work for me," is a bunch of hogwash. Anything in life requires a bit of effort on your part. If you can't invest those few minutes a day in your own self improvement then maybe you should stick to sniffing magic marker pens. For those interested some of the audio programs I've produced in the past, or who might like custom work done for specific issues, please drop me a note. I do them more as a courtesy and don't charge much more than the costs of producing and mailing. I think the prices charged by some of the larger internet marketing companies for these types of materials borders on criminal. Good health and greater fulfillment in life should be the birthright of us all, not just of the wealthy. May you find your journey through life to be everything and more that you've dreamed, ~R~

It is a mind-blowing preset! I sincerely admit it is nothing like what I have heard ever before. In fact, I am listening to it even as I am writing it. I feel that after all, Raven, your 30-year experience in this field has given us a great gift. Thanks!

09-Feb-2006, Raven

I'm very gratified that you enjoy the preset. It's my sincere hope that it assists you in some small way towards improving the quality of your life. I'll soon be uploading another preset having to do with the Schuman 7.83 resonance (although the latest research indicates that's gone up to something more like 11 now!) To those who may be looking for the larger background wav file I mentioned earlier, there was a glitch in the file and I removed it. I will shortly be uploading it again for any who are interested in using it in place of the small file I included here with this preset. Best wishes to all. ~R~

10-Feb-2006, GREAVER

what can i say this preset is a masterpiece brilliant job my freind

10-Feb-2006, Raven

Many thanks for the compliment. The preset itself, if you looked at it closely, is simple. But in my world, simple is good... gooder... gooderest? A suggestion you might want to try. Find yourself a nice, slow, deeply intoned "OM", or "AUM" sound, and substitute that for the background file. You might enjoy the results. ~R~

16-Feb-2006, Justin

Excellent!

01-Mar-2006, Dr. Nick

Hello Everybody! Lovely preset! Even with the "faulty" background music. I found there was a new version, when I came to write the review, I'm downloading it as I write. Hats off Raven. I can't wait to test your Schuman preset. Best Regards and Goodbye Everybody!

05-Mar-2006, pop

This preset works quite well. I'm feeling nicely tired now, I could sleep through the night.. that's also to say.. i want to listen more but i have kind of a real desire to turn on my side and try to drift off completely.. but i can't because i have really big headphones. maybe I should listen in the morning. :P not really sure what I should go for with listening to this.. I guess I have a really messed up mind and life and want something to help me.. something to lighten my mood to get back into that inspirable state of mind, that has that sense of wonderment, free of dullness and anxiety and disheartenedment, frustration, etc... the way people get after being in a rut for months and dont know how to get out because they give up on themselves and become lost.. I don't know why I'm rambling about this in comments, but I guess I'm trying to say that maybe I have some faith in this because it apparently has the power to alter states of mind, which in turn can shed insight on many problems.. i suppose it's working, I'm feeling pretty coherant in my thoughts, lol

07-Mar-2006, Dr. Nick

Hello Everybody! I downloaded the new Maya backgound, and added visuals to track biaural beat frequency. Im using it with "flash full screen" and it works even better (if such thing is possible :) By the way, I find it poetic that stupid and mean people get disgusting effects. Thanks again for such a nice preset! Goodbye Everybody! Dr. Nick (Self-Existing Wizard)

07-Mar-2006, Raven

The Maya 12-21-2012 preset is very relaxing to me. I find it provides a calming background sound even used over open speakers. The preset library here hasn't been taking uploads for several weeks. Dr Nick, did you have any difficulty downloading it from that 3rd party storage site? ~R~

08-Mar-2006, Dr. Nick

Hello Everybody! I downloaded Maya 12-21-2012 without any problems. Now i cant even find the link! So I decided to host the file on my office's server. You can find the file here: http://drnick.is-a-geek.net/mp3/Maya_12-21-2012.wav Have in mind that the server is on a dsl line, dont expect great download speeds! lol. But its available 24x7. Rarely the power is cut on weekends, if you cant download the file on a weekend try again on monday. Best Regards and Goodbye Everybody! Dr. Nick

08-Mar-2006, Raven

For those wishing to download the Maya 12-21-2012 preset and background here are the links: Preset: http://www.savefile.com/files3.php?fid=5571570 Background: http://www.savefile.com/files3.php?fid=1552001 The preset is a very slow delta 1.5Hz, so be sure to get it for use with the Maya Wav file. ~R~

finally I did "lucid dreaming" again this night. Thanks a lot.

16-Mar-2006, Wuli

Can I make my eyes fixed on a picture when listen to this tones?

17-Mar-2006, Raven

If it focuses your concentration there should be no problem. Let me presume you are using this preset for purposes of meditation. You may meditate for health reasons, such as relaxation, feelings of calm, etc., or you may meditate as a form of spiritual development. These goals are not necessarily mutually exclusive however, the method of meditation used does take on slightly different forms. Remember, there's no such thing (despite what some of the large companies who crank out CDs with binaural tracks on them say,) as a binaural program that "meditates you", such that all you have to do is sit back, put on the headphones, then think about anything and everything under the sun that you want to while the binaural waves magically do all the work. That's a fairy tale. Anyone who tells you otherwise wants to make a buck off you. If your purposes are primarily to relax, to gain a greater sense of peace, to rest the body and the mind, then some kind of picture conducive to these goals may or may not assist you along with a binaural wave program. That's the basic idea behind meditating on mandalas, or Native American sand paintings and so forth. Although you might just as well use a picture of a seascape or a beautiful sunset or some other peaceful image. Keep in mind, the objective is not to "think about" the picture, but to become absorbed in the essence of it. You are leaving the "self" behind so that you can better experience the "Self". This "Self" can only be experienced in the present moment. Not in the past. Not in the future. So using a photo that has strong memories associated with it, for example, a picture of your kids or your girlfriend/boyfriend or your pet, etc., probably wouldn't serve very will. It conjures up too many thoughts of the past and/or future and drags you out of that present moment awareness you're striving to reach. So keep to something relaxing, but something that does not have great emotional siginficance to you. As for the second type of meditation, all of what I wrote above applies, but the restrictions are even more stringent. Remember that meditation techniques for spiritual growth are just that; they are techniques. And the technique is NOT meditation. Meditation on that level is not something you "do". It is a state of consciousness you already have. You simply don't experience it because of all the thoughts, images, cares, worries, hopes, desires, etc., that drown it out. For instance, many people believe that if they focus their attention on counting their breath, and can do so without letting other thoughts encroach, then they are meditating. In fact what they are doing is concentrating. Breath counting is just a technique to clear away the excess mental/emotional clutter. But the breath counting technique in itself is yet another piece of clutter. Eventually it, too, must be released before that pure awareness of the present moment can be experienced. The same holds for using pictures as a point of focus. They may be of some help initially provided the are conducive to focusing and quieting the restless mind/emotion clutter. But having gotten you to that point they become an obstacle in and of themselves if they are not left behind. Think of it like the difference between a crutch, and a bridge. A crutch is something you lean on to help you get over the obstacle of a physical injury. The problem is that if you continue to use the crutch beyond what is necessary it becomes something you feel you "need" on a permanent basis. You become habituated to it and do not feel you can function properly anymore without it. On the other hand, a bridge also helps you get over an obstacle. The difference being, once you've crossed the bridge you're past the obstacle, and you leave both it and the bridge behind. So if you utilize some kind of image (or even binaural wave programs for that matter,) make sure you're using it as a bridge, not a crutch. Best wishes, ~R~

18-Mar-2006, Wuli

Thank you,Raven. There are some Yoga meditations that meditators look at a candle (or a picture) when meditating. Then they close their eyes but still see the candle (or the picture). They claim that this exercise may help to reach a higher level meditation, and may help to see some strange things (such as light) in their body. In this situation, is the candle used as a bridge or a crutch?

18-Mar-2006, Raven

Einstein once wrote that what we see depends largely on where we stand. To an average Joe like you or I the candle might well be a bridge that helps us along on our way. But if we are already developed past the need for the candle, then to continue walking back and forth over the same bridge would serve little purpose. In that case it would be a needless crutch. ~R~

25-Mar-2006, yls

hey, can i change the length from 20 to 60 minutes without consequences?

26-Mar-2006, Raven

You can change the length to whatever you desire. One thing that happens is that the descent from the starting Hz point is stretched out proportionately to the lengthening of the overall preset. For example, if you have a 20 minute preset, and during the first 5 minutes the Hz goes from 12Hz down to say, 4Hz, and you lengthen the overall preset length to 60 minutes (in other words, it is now 3 times as long as the original version,) then the time it takes to go from 12Hz down to 4Hz lengthens by 3 times as well, from 5 minutes to 15 minutes. Not necessarily a bad thing, but you might want to edit that descent to shorten it back to something a little less than 15 minutes again. Or maybe you want a nice, slow, 15 minute wind-down. It's up to you. ~R~

GREAT preset Raven, definately one of the best I've found so far. especially like the origional background sound

07-Apr-2006, Raven

Thank you, Dogg. I'm pleased you like it. I uploaded one I think you'll like even better at a third party site because it was too large for the Bwgen Library site to handle. Both the background and the preset can be obtained at the following URLs: Preset: http://www.savefile.com/files3.php?fid=5571570 Background: http://www.savefile.com/files3.php?fid=1552001 Apparently it's been very popular. Since I uploaded it a few weeks ago it has received nearly 300 downloads, so give it a try. I believe you will be pleased. I continue to receive a growing number of requests from people interested in obtaining some of the commercial tracks I've produced. Unfortunately, since most of these were custom pieces produced by commission, I cannot legally make them available. Those who paid for them own the exclusive copyrights. Fear not. I am in process of reworking a good selection of these commercial pieces which will then be open for purchase to anyone interested. Since this is more of a courtesy thing I only get around to working on it in my spare time, so it may be a few weeks to a month or more before they and the site will be in place. In the meantime I will continue creating the simple Bwgen programs and uploading them and making them available to anyone who wants them for free. The main differences between the work I've done with Bwgen and the ones I produce commercially has to do with the types of entrainment waves. With Bwgen the primary wave type is Binaural. The other types of wave patterns available are Monaural and Isochronic. You could make these waves with Bwgen as well but the process is somewhat cumbersome and time consuming. In my studio at work I have a veritable arsenal of audio tools that permit me to incorporate all three, binaural, monaural and isochronic into a single program, not to mention visual and subliminal suggestions and other goodies as commissioned. It all boils down to faster and more complete entrainment. In any case, once I've reworked the pieces so that I'm not in danger of violating my own clients' copyrights I will make some of these other types of programs available to any who are interested. All the best to you. ~R~

09-Apr-2006, Raven

A number of e-mails came after my last entry asking about the difference between binaural, monaural and isochronic waves. I uploaded one of the tracks I am reworking so that you could experience it for yourself. It's titled "Schuman's Evening 7.83". Download it from here: http://www.savefile.com/projects2.php?fid=3298283&pid=712695 It's in MP3 format which isn't as pristine as the original. I had to compress it from 610Mb in the original format down to 27Mb in MP3 so that people would have any chance at all of getting the download completed during the present lifetime. Unfortunately, compression lessens the quality of the track, but I think I struck a balance between size and quality that will give you a fair idea of what the track in its uncompressed format will sound like. For those interested, the original of this track was designed for a private school. Much research suggests that 60 beats per second facilitates quicker learning and better retention, such as the tempo found in classical Baroque music. There's an older book (but still quite relevant) on that subject called "Super Learning" in case you're interested that's written for a layman audience. In any case, the carrier frequency used on this Schuman track was 60Hz in keeping with the 60 beats per second need. It utilizes both binaural and monaural tracks. The background itself is also modulated in isochronic waves using a square wave form. It's a little hard to discern this on a compressed MP3, but I think if you listen carefully you'll still make it out. The great thing about monaural and isochronics is that they do not require headphones as binaurals do in order to have their effect. This track was used as a sort of background sound within the classroom. I cannot say that any scientific analysis of its effectiveness at the school was ever carried out. However, the instructors seemed to feel it was effective and enhanced concentration and focus of the students, so there is at least some anecdotal evidence. The original background in the commercial piece was, for obvious reasons, different than the one presented here. Try it yourself and draw your own conclusions. The full, uncompressed version will be available once I get the time to rework enough tracks and set up a site to host them. Best wishes, and enjoy! ~R~

10-Apr-2006, Niki

Dear friends, I am using the BrainWave generator, but I have a problem: when I use the test right(or left) channel in Configuration Wizard I also hear a very low volume of this sound in the another channel. I used about three computers with differnt sound card and disabled all these configuration. but the problem did not removed. Is it a serious problem to use the software? How can I do? Sincerely, N.B

10-Apr-2006, Raven

Are you running the sound check over speakers or over headphones? ~R~

19-Apr-2006, goose

When I try to import the preset, I get the following error message "unable to import the background file Maya 12-21-2012.wav" Any idea what is happening? thanks

20-Apr-2006, Ravem

Bwgen gives you that error if the background sound file name does not match exactly the name it was given when the preset was originally created. I suspect you may be using the preset itself downloaded from the library site for Bwgen, and the background sound from that third party site I uploaded it to, or vice versa. My best suggestion is to download both the preset and the background from that third party site I gave links to above. Those two files should match perfectly and you won't get the error message you mentioned. Let me know if that does not work for some reason. If you've got a broadband connection I could try zipping them and e-mailing them to you. ~R~

20-Apr-2006, Wuli

Is the "Schuman's Evening 7.83" used for meditation or for learning backgroud music?

21-Apr-2006, Raven

It could be used for either. 7.83Hz is right there at the border where very low alpha turns into a high theta. That's a nice, relaxed state but still with good alertness of mind, and that's a nice beginning point for meditation. ~R~

25-Apr-2006, Whheezzzz

Raven i think you are a very smart and intellectual person who has made many personal and social achievments of greater enhanceing the human mind and ways to build upon it in a healthy and mature fashion.I do beleive though my opinion of course,is that i think that not all people are so you say "permanent marker sniffers" ;) if people want to use this program and the availble presets as well as other programs like it that induce theta/beta waves of the brain to achieve a deeper sate of realxation/awareness/state of mind/Lucid-dreams/Astral profection/remote viewing/suggestive writing or anything dealing with the subconcious mind and in or out of this reality should be commended on trying to reach greater bounds of the human mind and different levels of conciousness. I give them a high five,there has been no study or statistics that i have heard that no one has died or severely injured for haveing a rapid O.B.E or any other mindset thats out there.i think this program is much better method or any other method for that matter is better than say someone "sniffing a magic marker" or LSD or heroin or mushrooms or any other type of hullcinagenic drug or plant/which is far more daungerous.And tp tell people to go sniff a permanent marker is not very professional.Kudos to all that enrich their lives in a natural way or have overcame obstacles/habbits/disorder/addictions with the use of the human mind/brain and the safe natural tools that are available

26-Apr-2006, Raven

Whheezzz, I agree with everything in your post. I believe if you go back and read my original post carefully you will see that my comment regarding "magic markers" was not directed at people attempting to better themselves. It was aimed at those who are, by their own admission, attempting to get a cheap "high" without having to pay the expense of drugs. Read some of their posts. They make it clear that is their sole intent in using Bwgen. In those cases I stand by what I wrote. Magic markers are cheaper and faster. You may feel such a statement is unprofessional, but then on this board I'm not a professional. Just one of the gang sharing his experiences and opinions. Besides, my comment was simply the use of hyperbole (an exaggerated statement to make a point,) and not to be considered in the literal sense. Any attempt to "catch a buzz" just for the fun of it is, in my opinion, a poor use of one's time. It makes no difference whether it is done chemically, electronically or in some other fashion. From the standpoint of improving yourself, the object is to transcend our common state of consciousness. "Catching a buzz" is an attempt to distract one's self away from common reality. In other words, it only adds an additional layer of illusion rather than penetrating and transcending the original state. From that point of view it is diametrically opposed to self-improvement. Hope that clarifies what I wrote for you a bit. ~R~

27-Apr-2006, Whheezzzz

Thanks for the post back Raven.I undestand what you were promoting now,thanks for calrification.I agree with what you say also how alot of people are out there to just get a cheap high or buzz if you will.I havent really read any other posts except this one so thats lack of insight on myself.I understand and agree whith what your saying it just seems to me,my opinion only of course is that is "someone" is looking for a quick fix/buzz then i would think that doing something natural would be much better than delving into unknown regions of the chemically induced world.ALthough their notions may be somewhat altered on the reasoning to get that quick buzz in the first place,i do beleive that in time, maybe not the first or second time that person would do such a thing but eventually they might/hopefully realize that there is a deeper meaning to to tools they are useing instead of "Just getting Off" so to speak.Then they can use those tools responsibley and maturely.I just think its a shame that the world has so many drug/alchahol realted problems and addictions that only if those people would get to the underlying problem of why they got that way in the first place and then use tools like this one to help them through it and become a better person inside and out thanks for your postings Raven its always nice to talk to someone who shares the same intrests/passions of something else beisides work,sex,beer -=;)

01-May-2006, Grammaton

Extremely relaxing, and a joy to listen too, thank you Raven excellent work. Will deffiently be usefull while meditating after qigong excerises that i am begining again, and my now daily meditations. Once again thank you very much for this wonderful preset i hope to see and hear more of your excellent work.

Can someone tell me why I am unable to download these mentioned Raven's files from www.savefile.com ? I offers me button/link for download this "Raven_old.wav", and on next screen it says : Downloading raven_old.wav ... and nothing happens. Same with Maya preset.

03-May-2006, Raven

The SaveFile site appears to be running slow at the moment. When downloading the files I provided be patient. Eventually the download begins. At that point it runs at something like normal speeds. If the wait gets to be too long I'll upload files elsewhere and post a link. ~R~

Below is a link to a PDF file I uploaded to answer some of the most commonly asked questions I get about brainwave entrainment and meditation techniques. Please feel free to continue sending questions to me, but also have a look at the document I am providing. You may find I have already supplied the answer or given instructions relative to the question you have. http://www.savefile.com/projects2.php?fid=7223310&pid=927788&key=972104 Best wishes, ~R~

I have uploaded several entrainment tracks which contain various entrainment Hz frequencies for you to try. Each of these utitlizes all 3 audio entrainment modalities, Binaural, Monaural and Isochronic, which means they will be effective either with or without headphones. Unfortunately, in order to keep them to a size that can be downloaded I have had to use MP3 compression down to 224Kbs. This unavoidably results in some loss of audio quality, but the tracks are still quite good even incompressed form. I have not found sufficient time to put up a website where you can purchase the pure wav format programs on CD. Until then these tracks should serve in good stead. The number at the end of each file name represents the Hz frequency of that particular track. As I have discussed with several people in your e-mails to me, not everyone is as fortunate as we here in the United States. That $20 we think nothing of to purchase something like entrainment tracks may well represent what they earn in an entire month's wages. Tools for personal growth should be for everyone, not just those who live in the more affluent countries of the world. Special thanks goes out to Vjeran Marcinko who has offered much valued input from a user's viewpoint that allowed me to better tailor these tracks to meet some of the needs of listeners. Please note, these are complete tracks and not Bwgen presets. They may be played on any MP3 compatible CD player or on your computer. I hope you find them to be useful: Eternity 5.5 http://www.savefile.com/files2.php?fid=9660927&key=558339 Maya II 12-21-2012 http://www.savefile.com/files2.php?fid=2519695&key=233693 Rainforest 5.5 http://www.savefile.com/files2.php?fid=7634560&key=121790 Schuman's Evening 7.83 http://www.savefile.com/files2.php?fid=3298283&key=560428 Best wishes to you all, ~R~ P.S. Does anyone have any information on why the Bwgen site has not been taking uploads of new Bwgen presets? Has the service been discontinued, or are they having technical difficulties? Any information would be appreciated.

23-May-2006, Ellis

Hello Raven, Love the fact that all of your responses to the various questions are nice and long. It just goes to show how passionate you are about the subject. Do you have your own personal website? If you do, I would love to check it out. Thanks.

23-May-2006, Ravens

I produce entrainment products for corporate and government clients who do not as a rule go out web surfing. You respond to the contract they put out for bid. In other cases I get referred by previous clients to do work for new ones. As a result I've never put up a website for corporate use. However, I am putting together a website to make some of the more advanced entrainment products available to the pubic. It's a slow process I've been working on the for the past month or two. When it is online I'll announce it here. I hope to be able to provide entrainment tracks utilizing all three binaural, monaural and isochronic wave forms in combination, which is light years ahead of anything else you find on the market today. My philosophy, as I've stated before, is that these kinds of tools should be available to everyone, not just those who live in wealthy countries, so the prices will be far less than what you would pay through groups like Centerpointe, the Monroe Institute, and others. In addition I will also be open to creating commissioned works if someone has an idea for something they really want. That kind of work will be a little more expensive, but still far below what you will find anywhere else. So keep reading and watching. As I get time the website will eventually go online. In the meantime, go to the links I provided above where I've listed 4 tracks that are available for free. No strings attached. ~R~

Hi Raven, Thank you for sharing these wonderful files and presets. However, there is one criticism that seems very important: in your post marked April 9, you shared the Schuman's Evening, which is very nice, but you said "... research suggests that 60 beats per second facilitates quicker learning ..." Isn't that statement incorrect? SuperLearning was a fascinating book, but the baroque music the researchers used was at 60 beats per minute. At 60Hz, your entrainment file would be well above beta brain waves at 3600 beats per minute. I hope you will correct this error, because I would really love to listen to one of your compositions designed for super learning. I have a degree in psychology and I'm working on a masters in linguistics right now, which is very difficult for me, and I need every brain boost I can get. Let me know if I can be of any further assistance to you. Zyzyggy

25-May-2006, Raven

Zyzyggy, you are 110% correct. When I wrote that I was thinking "60 beats per minute, that makes 1 beat per second," and I mixed the two and came up with "60 beats per second". My typo. Much thanks for catching my goof. 60 beats per second. Wouldn't that give you seizures trying to tap your toes to that beat! ~R~

25-May-2006, Raven

Tell you what I'm going to do, Zyzyggy. Since you caught my error I figure I owe you one. Tell me what sort of background sounds you find soothing. Give me a number of different kinds of sounds that you like so I've got some lattitude to work with. I'll write up a program in your honor and upload it with the others I've already given people access to. Let's see if we can help you along a bit earning that Master's degree! Best wishes, ~R~

25-May-2006, Zyzyggy

Raven, Thanks again for your great generosity and inspiration. My favorite sounds would include all the usual nature soundscapes, particularly ocean waves, waterfalls, garden birds and babbling brooks. I found the nature sounds included with BWGEN to be too short and mechanical sounding, so anything with comparatively more chaotic naturalness would be great. Bamboo flute sounds good too, echoing across the lagoon of some south pacific island at twilight. Take good care and I look forward to your next masterpiece. Zyzyggy

26-May-2006, Raven

OK, Zyzyggy, here's a little something to help you study: http://www.savefile.com/files2.php?fid=5367538&key=564236 The base tone for this is 60Hz which I have always found to be a very pleasing foundation. The program itself is a straight alpha at 8Hz containing binaural, monaural and isochronic wave patterns. It's perfect for study, concentration, etc. And I threw in a little bonus. If you listen carefully, beneath the sound of the flowing stream you will hear a human heartbeat that I have synchronized to exactly...you guessed it, 60 beats per minute in tribute to you catching my earlier error. Hope this helps you on your way towards that Master's degree! ~R~

Hey Raven, I really like your work. It really enhances my meditation. I do have a question since you have so much experience with meditation and visualisation. I was wondering how you would go about curing Social Anxiety/Depression. I read your pdf-file where u stated how you should go about losing weight/curing anxiety but my problem is that when I visualise how I would be without the anxiety I get more frustrated and feel bad the whole day. Would it be wiser for me to just practice meditation so I would feel more calm in everyday life and pay less attention to my thoughts? Thanks in advance!

29-May-2006, Raven

Hurricane, I'm not a medical doctor or psychologist, and you need to understand that up front. Some kinds of anxiety and depression have a medical basis and require very specific kinds of medical intervention. Make sure you seek medical care if it is warranted. Having said that, there are definite benefits to using brainwave entrainment technology, meditation, and most recently there has been some striking progress made using a particular breathing technique to control stress, tension, anxiety, depression and hypertension. In my view these can all be of great use in conquering anxiety/depression problems, either by themselves for mild cases, or as adjuncts to conventional treatments if you are under a doctor's care. This forum really isn't set up for us to have a detailed discussion of these things and I don't want to take advantage of the good folks at Bwgen here by using their board for long discussions not directly related to entrainment. I will make you a deal. You do two things for me. First, if it is warranted, make sure you get professional medical care for your condition. And second, send me an e-mail giving me a little more detail on your particular case. For instance, is it chemically caused, i.e., by endocrinological imbalances, use of chemical substances, i.e., alcohol, drugs, etc. Or is it psychologically based, meaning there are no known chemical connections; it's purely a matter of how you process information and perceptions that leads to the feelings of stress or anxiety. If you give me that much information I will give you some detailed data on entrainment, meditation and particularly breathing that I think you will find useful. I'll upload that information (obviously without giving out any direct references to you,) on the site where I have uploaded the other materials referenced here on the Bwgen site. One last thought: Don't feel discouraged. Anxiety and depression issues are one of the fastest growing set of issues our culture faces today. Fortunately, they are also one of the most treatable. And when you do overcome them it will give you one of the greatest feelings of accomplishment you can imagine! Look forward to hearing from you, ~R~

lol this is a great preset. a second ago i was dreaming with this on and i all of a sudden recognized that i was dreaming. unfortuneately i woke up but its good to know it works and i will be using it for later use. thankS!

19-Jun-2006, natura

I'll like to say 2 things: 1.It works. 2.I would like to make a proposition: In order to avoid lose quality, you could upload Eternity 5.5 , Maya II 12-21-2012 , Rainforest 5.5 , Schuman's Evening 7.83 and Flow 8.0 in a file format like .zip, .ace , .rar or some other format that can be uncompressed to the original size without loses. Thanks for ALL.

Hi Raven, You state above that: "…many people write presets that involve multiple binaural beat tracks. For example, they may write a tract with alpha, another with beta and two or three more intermixing theta and a couple of delta or what have you. These they interweave all at the same time. As "cool" as this seems the effect is less than useful. In fact it may prove to be stressful on the brain." However, as far as I can see, your session does exactly that. After the descent into “pure 4hz theta”, you are left with the voices at Voice one (4hz) L78 R82 Voice two (4hz) L74 R78 Voice three (4hz) L70 R74 Voice four (4hz) L66 R70 Voice five (4hz) L66 R70 Voice six (4hz) L118 R122 Since these are all playing simultaneously, as well as your 4hz theta beats… -The left channel of voice two (74hz) and the right of voice one (82hz) produces an 8hz binaural beat – an alpha wave. - Voice three’s left channel (70hz) and voice one’s right (82hz) - producing a 12hz binaural - an alpha/beta wave. - Voice four(L) and one(R)produce a 16hz binaural – a mid beta wave - Voice six(L) and one(R) produce a 36hz binaural - a gamma wave And so on. In all it seems you’ve got most of the spectrum through from theta to alpha, to beta, to gamma waves throughout your preset, something clearly not in accord with your principles of composition. Are you aware of this? Do you account for this in your professional compositions? Assuming I haven’t made a blunder here, I apologise for being the bringer of irritating news. Seems it’s a tremendously popular preset whatever the frequencies produced! Regards, Joe.

This preset quickly became one of my favorites. I listen to it regularly, in combination with 'Satori' and 'You want astral, you got astral'. Thank you for sharing it. It's a work of art and function--feeds the spirit.

20-Jun-2006, Raven

Hi, Joe. I understand your reasoning, and at first glance you might get the impression I am violating my own rule of thumb. However, look a little deeper and you will see that I have employed a trick. It would be easier to demonstrate if I could do so in diagram form, but let me give it a try just explaining it with words. Hopefully it will become clear. You are absolutely correct when you cite the 8, 12, 16 and 32Hz waves, however, consider what each of these numbers has in common for a moment. OK, I'll let you off the hook...each of them is divisible evenly by the number 4. Now, keep in mind, a binaural beat is produced wherever two waves reach a point of intersection. If you could visualize each of the above waves as a nice, smooth Sine curve you would see that the only points at which they intersect are the peaks and the valleys. Nowhere between the peak or the crest do they cross each other. If there were such crossings they would represent a binaural beat that is out of synch with the 4Hz wave. In effect this is what you get. You have your initial 4Hz beat. Exacty 4Hz later it repeats however, added to it is the peak of the 8Hz wave at exactly the same moment. It is not in conflict with the 4Hz wave, it is exactly synchronous with it, only it is added in terms of the strength of the beat (i.e., you now have two beats hitting at exactly the same moment thereby doubling the strength of either one.) Exactly 4Hz later you reach the peak of the 12Hz wave, again, synchronous with the 4Hz wave and, again, doubling it's strength. Then you go another 4Hz later and you get the 4Hz wave, the 8Hz wave and the 16Hz wave, all synchronous, tripling the strength of the initial 4Hz wave, and so forth. Is there a 36Hz wave in there? Yes, but your brain does not register that fact because the peak and the valley of that wave fall exactly synchronous with all the other waves. Now, what would have happened had I introduced say, a 3Hz wave into the equation? It would have peaked exactly 1Hz after the before the 4Hz wave giving me a binaural beat both on the count of 3 and on 4. On the way down to the valley the 3Hz wave would hit bottom 2 counts after the peak of the 4Hz wave, giving me a binaural beat on 3, 4, 6, and 8 (the point at which the original 4Hz wave reaches its first valley.) Now, throw into the mix a couple more waves, like a Schuman, or an 11Hz, then a 5Hz, etc., and you can see that the number of binaural beats assaulting your brain quickly reaches a point of near chaotic complexity. Your brain will not have the slightest clue which one of these dozens of ever-shifting beat patterns it is supposed to be entraining to. So, long story short, exact multiples, if chosen carefully, reinforce each other. Your target Hz frequency should be the slowest frequency you choose. Any other higher frequencies you must be evenly divisible by this lowest frequency. Please keep in mind, the programs I produce are based on my own research and experience. I offer them to you for what they are worth. The bottom line is always going to be, how does listening to any particular program leave you feeling? A well constructed program should leave you refreshed, relaxed, focused and energized (and yes, you can be all of these things and more at the same time!) On the other hand, if you feel agitated, excited (as in caffeine jitters kind of excited,) anxious, uncomfortable, fuzzy-headed, etc., you aren't doing yourself any favors by continuing to listen to that program. Your body/mind knows what's good and what's not. Pay attention when it tells you what it nourishes it and what disturbs it. I hope that helps a little. Thanks for the question, Joe. It was a good one. ~R~

Unfortunately the site I use to provide these programs has a 60Mb size limit per file. The originals are close to 700Mb in size. No amount of compression will get them down small enough for upload to the SaveFile site without grossly compromising the quality. Just to upload the ones that are there I had to cut them down in length from 60 to 20 minutes and then compress them into MP3 format. Ideally, you want these files in full Wav format, uncompressed and pristine. I will put up a website (I know I've said that before) where you can order an assortment of programs on CD. Don't worry, they won't cost an arm and a leg like some companies charge. I have also received quite a few requests for additional information on meditation and breathing techniques. I'll make those available as well, though it takes time to write them out. Usually when I teach meditation I do so one-on-one, not because you need a "guru" or any of that sort of thing, but because it's just easier for me to see what you are doing and guide you along than to try to anticipate possible question or situation and answer it in writing before it comes up. So I will get this all accomplished one of these days, hopefully before too much longer. Tell you what. Since you raised the issue I'll make you a deal. E-mail me your mailing address (don't put it on this bulletin board for the whole world to see or you're likely to get USPS spammed!) Specify any 3 of the 5 programs I've uploaded. I'll burn the 20 minute version of the 3 you choose to CD and mail it to you free gratis this time. That way you get a taste of what they're meant to sound like without loss of audio quality. Best wishes, ~R~

21-Jun-2006, Joe

Hi Raven, Thank you for your detailed reply. Ensuring higher frequencies are divisible by the lower frequencies is something I've often done intuitively in the past when making presets - see "Steps in Time (Revised)" in the relaxation/ meditation section of this site. However, I did so with the assumption that the brain would tend to entrain to both frequencies, not that it would select the lower one only. How can you be confident that the brain ignores the 8hz, 12hz, 16hz and 36hz beats? I understand that they layer perfectly on top of a 4hz beat, and that the peaks of the different beats repeatedly synchronise, but all the different frequencies are still there as part of the mix are they not? For example, every other beat of an 8hz binaural beat will occur at the same time as each beat of the 4hz binaural beat, reinforcing and amplifying it, correct? But what about the 8hz beat itself. It's still there, pounding away at 8 cycles per second... However, I accept my knowledge of neuro-acoustics, or indeed just plain old physics may be at fault here. More interestingly, I'm still unclear as to why multiple entrainment is of necessity stressful or unhealthy. Neurofeedback devices like the Mind Mirror report constant mixes of different patterns of brainwaves *even in experienced yogis and meditators*. See for example (the first one I could find off google): http://www.annawise.com/the_work/the-work-content.html Anna Wise, Geoffrey Thompson, Kelly Howell, Michael Hutchison and others all use multiple frequencies at the same time in their CDs. They may be carefully selected to ensure they complement each other as yours do, but their final outcome doesn't seem to be to just entrain one base frequency. It seems to be, to give one common example, to blend a beta level of alertness with a theta/delta state of deep meditation. I know Michael Hutchison is a big fan of challenging the brain with unpredictable, rapidly changing frequencies, rollercoastering from beta to delta and back again, to challenge the present rigidity of the system and cause it to "creatively reorganise" at a higher level (although this type of work tends to be done with L&S machines and in a clinical context). The other authors and researchers seem to have a more gentle approach of blending the frequencies together. The main point is, the brain seems to combine frequencies naturally, and the more sophisticated and multi channelled your eeg equipment, the more frequencies you see occurring simultaneously. So the old concept of the whole brain resonating at one single frequency seems outdated (at least from what I've gathered through intermittent interest in the field over the years). Do you disagree with these researchers/authors? Why? Genuinely curious, Joe.

21-Jun-2006, Raven

In the interest of time, have a look at the download I uploaded regarding brainwave entrainment and meditation. Much of what you question is addressed there. But to give you just a very short answer let me make an analogy. Your brain is like a multi-frequency tuning fork; like the tuning fork used to tune a piano. Only your brain is capable of all the frequencies rather than being limited to just one. If you took an ordinary tuning fork built to the pitch of C# that was motionless, and you struck another C# tuning fork and held it near the first one, what would happen to that first tuning fork? The answer is obvious. It would begin to vibrate and entrain with the second fork because they resonate at the same frequency. Now, let's say you've got your brain/multi-freq tuning fork sitting there motionless. You strike a C# fork and hold it near. Remember, your multi-freq fork is capable of vibrating at virtually any pitch up and down the scale. Naturally, it will resonate with and begin vibrating sympathetically with the C# fork that you've struck and placed near it. Take this thought experiment a step further. While the second fork is still vibrating at C#, you take a third fork tuned, let's say to A flat. You strike it and hold it near your multi-freq fork. Then you take a fourth fork at a pitch of F, strike it and hold it near your multi-freq fork as well. What frequency is your multi-freq fork going to resonate to? It has the capacity to resonate with any of them. Which one will it choose, all things being equal? As I said, I went into much more detail in the explanation I uploaded. That would go a long way in answering some of what you asked me here. But keep the tuning fork analogy in mind as you read. Yes, the mind is capable of experiencing more than one frequency at a time, but one will always be dominant. The others are naturally occuring, as I explained in that paper. They are not random, and you cannot force the brain to accept them simply because you have put them into an audio track. At best nothing will happen. Of course you may just send your brain into the cerebral equivalent of cardiac defibrillation by slamming it with all those mixed signals. In the end, as I said before, let your body/mind be your guide. It's like that old joke: "Doctor, my hand hurts like crazy when it hit it with this hammer." "Well then, my young patient, stop hitting your hand with the hammer." Best wishes, ~R~

21-Jun-2006, Joe

Hi Raven, Two comments: Firstly, I guess the point of dispute is whether as you say, the brain only exhibits "flashes of multiple frequencies" at specific intervals, or whether it has long periods of simultaneous multiple frequencies, as machines like the mind mirror suggest (eg. experienced meditatiors displaying a specific mix of delta, theta, alpha, and beta frequencies *all at the same time and for a sustained period*). However, I'm not a neuroscientist, so unless you can respond with specific info on this then we've reached a dead end on this one. Secondly, your pdf file is absolutely great - well written, informative, and with lots of practical information. Thank you for taking the time to put it together and offer it up for free. :-) Regards, Joe.

21-Jun-2006, Raven

Your first point opens a very large can of worms. Can an experienced yogi consciously exhibit multiple brainwave patterns. Perhaps. Perhaps not. More to the point, if he/she could, would he/she bother using a CD to produce brainwave entrainment? Highly doubtful. Those who utilize such tools do so precisely because they DO NOT have that kind of control (if such control in fact exists.) That being the case, as stated in the PDF I provided, those "harmonic brainwaves" (I can't think of a better name for them,) would not be haphazardly placed. They are as they are in accordance with some biological imperative of which you and I are not consciously aware. The body/mind knows what it is (presuming it is functioning properly,) and places those other wave frequencies where they need to be. Think of it like your heart. Most people mistakenly believe their hearts beat, or should beat, at a very precise, unvarying rate. The more even the beat, the better they are. In fact this makes a kind of logical sense but it is wrong. Heart Rate Variability is one of those factors a cardiologist looks at when assessing the proper functioning of a heart. One warning sign of an impending heart problem is when the heart beats too evenly; too perfectly regular. Variability of rate is a sign of health. That being acknowledged, let's assume you could develop a device that would allow you to send a shock; an impulse to contract to the heart whenever you desired. If you were to simply trigger that device at random on a fairly frequent basis your heart would certainly be subjected to "variability" in its beat. But without that innate body/mind intelligence to guide those variable impulses your efforts would be little short of playing cardiac Russian roulette. In my view the same exact principle holds true for brain entrainment. Does the brain have more than one frequency going at any given time? Certainly. Do I consciously know what those frequencies are or should be? Nope. Not a clue. The body/mind knows, but the conscious mind would just be guessing, and the odds are astronomically in favor of you guessing wrong. That is why I take the stand that I'll entrain to a single, dominant frequency; one that is pertinent to the objectives I've set for myself. I'll let the body/mind take care of determining which, if any, other frequencies it wants to throw into the mix. It has the intelligence to do so. I do not. I thought about your initial question as to whether or not the preset I offered violated my own principle. As I mulled it over I hit upon an idea that will perhaps make it more understandable why I have not. Let's take this out of the Hz range and deal with something a little more intelligible to our everyday understanding. Let's deal with seconds. We'll start with a timer that ticks off 100 seconds. To begin, we have our first person clap their hands one time every 50 seconds. In other words, when the timer reaches 50 seconds they clap once. When it reaches 100 seconds they clap a second time. How many claps have we heard in those 100 seconds? Pretty simple. Two claps. OK, we move on and add a second person who is instructed to clap her hands once every 25 seconds. We will presuppose that they clap equally loud and in perfect synchronization with the first person. So at 25 seconds she claps. At 50 seconds they both clap. At 75 seconds she claps again. And at 100 seconds they both clap. How many claps have we heard in those 100 seconds? Easy. Four claps. We now add a third person who is instructed to clap every 5 seconds. So he claps at 5, 10, 15, 20, and at 25 both he and our second clapper clap together. On it continues until 50 at which time all three persons clap together, and so forth all the way up to 100. Now, how many claps have we heard in total? The answer is 20 total claps. Let us suppose that it is possible to entrain the human brain in increments of Claps Per Second (CPS) rather than Hz. In our above example we have a clapper at 50, a clapper at 25, and a clapper at 5. Which of those three clapping frequencies is our imaginary brain going to entrain to? Since each of the larger numbers is divisible by 5, the brain is only going to register a single clap every 5 seconds. Eventhough we have clappers at 25 and 50 the brain will not recognize them as such. It will lump them together with the lowest common denominator, or 5. The principle I used in the preset is the same. The brain will only register the lowest common denominator, or 4Hz. The others will simply blend in and be virtually invisibile in and of themselves. Hope that clarifies what I meant a little better. Best, ~R~

21-Jun-2006, Joe

Hello Raven, I never suggested advanced yogis would ever listen to binaural beat cds! What I said was that researchers like Anna Wise found a specific blend of Delta, Theta, Alpha and Beta waves in very similar proportions, in nearly every meditator they scanned. See the link I posted for an introductory page on this. I take your point about not knowing the exact frequencies of each level of this blend, but I'm really not convinced that the brain could be damaged by combining non-harmonic frequencies. Certainly not just through the relatively mild effects of binaural beats. I mean maybe. Maybe. I very much respect what you say about everyone's body/mind being individual, but some would use that as an argument against using entrainment at all - "let the mind find it's own natural patterns, and stop trying to drive it with rigid, mechanical stimuli"! The odds are, as you say, astronomically in favour of you selecting a different frequency to the one your body/mind would naturally have created. But if it's not harmful to entrain to 4hz, and I really don't think it is (although some suggest that regular entrainment to theta and delta is contra-indicated for those with learning difficulties - they’ve already got enough), then I don't really see how it suddenly becomes harmful to entrain to 4hz and 22hz (not a multiple of 4!) simultaneously. Anyway Raven, your presets seem to be genuinely useful to people and well composed (I'm downloading one of your wav files to check out as I type) and I'm starting to get that "How many angels can fit on the head of a pin" sense of this being a futile argument here. I'm not an expert on the brain. I'm not a professional neuro-acoustic engineer, and I've little more to contribute to this issue. But do take a look at the Awakened Mind format for brain training, and see if it diverges from your own ideas. Now, onto the maths! Let me keep everything in your analogous example of clapping the same apart from changing the 100 seconds to 100 hundredths of a second (CS) (so we smoothly glide back into hertz land). The first person who claps his hands every 50cs is clapping at 2hz. The second person who claps every 25cs, (at 25, 50, 75 and 100cs): 4hz. The third person, who claps every 5 cs, 20hz. You say it is the third person, who claps every 5cs, that all the rest will blend into. But this is a 20hz frequency *the highest frequency you detailed* NOT the lowest. Was this just an oversight in your example? If not, then it's same with your preset. If the highest frequency is 36hz (a man clapping every 2.78 s) then all the lower frequencies (eg the 4hz man clapping every 25cs) will surely blend into it. Every 9th clap of the 36hz clapper will be complemented by one of the 4hz clapper, and the 4hz clapper, according to your analogy will therefore blend into the background. Therefore, the dominant frequency of your preset will be 36hz - and all the slower beats will just amplify the claps of Mr 36hz which happen every 2.78cs). At least according to your analogy. Correct me if I have erred here! Regards, Joe.

22-Jun-2006, Raven

I understand your point, however, I'll just issue you this challenge. Go through the lists of presets on the Bwgen site and read the comments. Look for ones that say, "First I felt mellow, then I felt excited, then I felt spaced out, then I got anxious, etc." Look at that preset's construction and the odds are you are going to find multiple frequency mixed tracks. Then look at the one I provided, or at another person's work who kept it basic and did not mix tracks. You won't find those erratic mood shifts in the comments. So, does create a negative impact? For my money, yes, it does. Can that negative impact be severe? Any epileptic can tell you they avoid flickering lights. Not all flickering lights set off seizures, but you hit the right combination and a seizure is triggered. Will binaural beats cause similar adverse reactions? Do you really want to act as the test subject to find out? I have two more tracks I'll be uploading, probably later tonight or tomorrow if I get them completed. One is a .05Hz track and the other is a 75Hz track, so I've used Gamma and Epsilon entrainment. I'll be curious to see how people react to them. Probably not many have ever been exposed to the ultra low or ultra high entrainment tracks before, so it may prove an interesting experience. Thanks for all the feedback, Joe. It's good to have someone who keeps you honest! ~R~

22-Jun-2006, Joe

Hi Raven, Ultimately, I think I agree with you. Not least because when people stick six or seven different frequencies together, the whole thing becomes a mess, in part because of the many extra binaural beat frequencies generated by the intermingling of the left and right channels. And I'm being neither obsequious nor disingenuous when I compliment you Raven. What you've produced seems really great. I am a little surprised that you haven't commented on the maths above. You do see that your clapping analogy makes no sense in terms of your argument don't you? Your suggestion that "the higher harmonics fade into the background of the lowest frequency" is illogical if you think it through. It's the complete opposite! You've confused the length between each clap(/beat) with the frequency of each clap(/beat). Read through what I wrote above (and indeed what you wrote) if you don't see what I mean! But do keep up the good work. It's the results that matter - and I'm sure your preset has a strong, dominant 4hz beat - just not according to your explanation above! Regards, Joe.

23-Jun-2006, Raven

You are correct. In my analogy with the clapping I did reverse frequency of clapping. The slower the clapping, the higher the Hz frequency. After reading your post a couple of times I came to recognize that my analogy was in fact backwards. ~R~

23-Jun-2006, natura

Maybe this place is not the appropiate to write about isochronic pulses but… I can´t understand how they work. We can not listen to a ultrasound under 20Hz. Eaven most of the speakers can´t reproduce it. So, how can it work?

23-Jun-2006, Joe

Hi Raven, Well it's good my schoolboy maths hasn't completely deserted me! But as I said, your presets seem to work splendidly anyhow. I look forward to following your future work. Be well, Joe.

23-Jun-2006, natura

When I´ve said ULTRAsound, I mean INFRAsound; of course.

24-Jun-2006, Raven

Isochronic entrainment refers to gaps or spaces in a tone such that the gaps fall at the desired Hz frequency. The simplest way to "visualize" it is to say that to the ear an isochronic pulse would sound like a tone you were turning the volume up on, then down to zero, up, then down to zero. The human ear generally registers tones between 20Hz and 20,000Hz, (20kHz). For adults the sensitivety of perception on the upper end normally falls with age down to the vicinity of 16kHz. In the mid-range of that hearing spectrum we are able to register a change as small as 2Hz. For example, at the Seattle Science Center there is a device that plays a tone in one ear over headphones. Another tone is played in the opposite ear attached to a dial that allows you to raise or lower the pitch. The idea is to try to get the tones to match each other exactly. You adjust that dial until you think you hear the exact same pitch being played in both ears. When you have it you hit a button and the machine then tells you if you have an exact match or not. It's been so many years ago that I played with the device that I don't recall how close the pitch had to be in terms of Hz for the machine to recognize it at an exact match. But let's say you started off with an identical pitch in both ears, then adjusted the dial of one ear either up or down. In order for your ear to recognize a true change in pitch you would have to make an adjustment of at last 2Hz or more. Anything less and it would still sound like the same pitch to you. However, eventhough you could not recognize the change in pitch in anything less than 2Hz, you would still be able to detect that binaural beat pattern. It wouldn't sound like a musical tone, but would just be that "beating" noise (technically known as "phase variance") we hear when listening to binaural sound programs. Using isochronic entrainment sounds you would still hear the "beat" of the pulses eventhough the musical pitch that beat represents is well below what your ear would recognize as a pitch. Did I answer your question, or just confuse you more? There is an older book written by Dave Siever from 1997, a chapter of which is online in PDF format. It contains more extensive information than I've given you here if you'd like to have a look. It can be found here: https://www.mindalive.com/2_0/ch6.pdf Best wishes, ~R~

I have uploaded a 75Hz entrainment file named Epsilon 75. Ordinarily I don't bother with ramp up or down segments. For reasons I won't elaborate on here I find them to be largely wasted time. However, in this particular instance, because the 75Hz frequency is so far outside our everyday brainwave frequencies, I constructed the file to run at 75Hz for 20 minutes with a 10 minute ramp down period descending to a nice, relaxing 12Hz. Epsilon frequencies have sometimes been associated with ecstatic states of consciousness. More than that I cannot say. Here's the link: http://www.savefile.com/files2.php?fid=1903634&key=941171 Best wishes to all, ~R~

Thanks for the info, Raven. I have proved with BrainWave Generator to make a 7Hz to 4Hz, and with "25% smoothed rectangular wave", it works.:)

Hello Raven, I downloaded and listened to the preset. Being new to brainwave so I have a couple questions hope you don't mind. How long should I listen it to? It's keep playing for more than 40 minutes now I don't know if I should adjust the time? You mention about custom made preset for clients. Could you please tell me (please email me) how it works, I think I need your help for my own preset. Thanks very much Nam

Raven, great job. Downloaded everything and trying little by little. Got a q: since I suffer (well, actually I enjoy every minute of it) ADD, theta waves are forbidden. Do you think I can achieve same levels of concentration for meditation with alpha? I have also used theta waves for LD and OOBE, and I have had great experiences. Take care and keep up the good job.

23-Jul-2006, Raven

I understand that people diagnosed with ADD typically display disproportionately high levels of alpha through theta brainwaves, so to intentionally entrain to these frequencies is a bit like trying to put out a fire by dowsing the flames with gasoline. I don't know if alpha meditation is the answer you're looking for. People spontaneously go in and out of alpha all the time during the day. Alpha waves are what we feel when we begin staring off into space or daydreaming. If you were intent on meditating my suggestion is that you try the Epsilon 75 program I provided. Quite honestly, I cannot say whether or not it will be effective for you with regard to meditation, but I can say that brainwaves of 75Hz will at least not put you to sleep. Or maybe you need to stick to the beta entrainment waves for the moment until your ADD comes under control. Perhaps a more profitable approach (other than meditation) would be to practice some breathing exercises. Sudarshan Kriya breathing would be an excellent choice. If you have no access to a class and/or cannot afford the $300+ dollars required, try a yoga breath technique called the "Bellows Breath". This consists of breathing rapidly in and out of your nose at a rate of about 2 to 3 breaths per second. Start at one breath per second for 30 seconds. See how that feels. You will find your diaphragm is your weak spot. It will fatigue rather quickly which results in the breath becoming irregular. If you can hold out for 30 seconds at one breath per second speed it up to 2 breaths. It may take a few days or even weeks before you work yourself up to 3 breaths per second. The trick is to breath quickly but still deeply enough that you are getting sufficient oxygen intake. In other words, you should not be feeling like you're "out of breath" at any time. If this occurs it means you need to slow down the breaths and allow them to become deeper. Work at that level for awhile and then try speeding the breaths back up. Bellows breathing is useful for focusing concentration because you cannot easily perform it if your attention is insufficiently focused. The breath will become irregular should you allow your concentration to become distracted. ~R~

Keep in mind, the audio files are quite large averaging 30Mb in size eventhough they have been trimmed to 20 minutes' length and compressed into MP3 format. They will take time to download, so have patience. Also, they have become quite popular and are downloaded a few hundred times per day. So the website they are hosted on may occasionally experience slightly slower download times as their bandwidth is taxed. ~R~

12-Aug-2006, d

12-Aug-2006, Raven

Mark, there are guidelines available at the links I gave above that give general instructions on creating brainwave tracks. The best advice I can give is to keep your tracks simple and don't intentionally try to mix brainwave frequencies. Pick the one you want to make the dominant entrainment frequency and let your brain fill in the blanks on the others. As far as instructions specifically about using the Bwgen software, there are basic tutorials available here on the Bwgen site I believe. To really become effective at it you're going to have to be willing to experiment. There really is no shortcut method of learning how to create effective programs, but you can give yourself a bit of an edge by downloading the presets others have created and altering them. Look at the settings they have chosen. Dissect them. Don't be afraid to make a change to a preset then listen to it to see how your body/mind reacts. Feedback by other users is one of the most efficient ways to determine the effectiveness of your presets. Unfortunately, the Bwgen site here seems to have ceased accepting uploads of presets long about last February. You can open a free account and upload your own presets at www.savefile.com as I did. Then you can provide links to those presets that the members here can use to obtain and evaluate your work. There is another site that has a Bwgen forum located at: http://bwgen.tehforums.com/ You might also consider registering as a member at this site so that you can solicit feedback from its forum members as well. In addition, there is a Bwgen Yahoo Group you can join at: http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/bwgen/ Hope this helps get you started. If you have specific questions about the Bwgen software as you work on presets post them here and I would be happy to see if I can help you. ~R~

Hi All... Last week I fall asleep with music on my headphone... I never do this because I have a very delicate headphone... But what happens is that I dreamed the sound of the music, and in the dream I ask to me from where this music came from....(ok after wake up I have realized :).... Now I see that for me this work better than of the "music before to fall asleep", and I want to add some affirmation or intention with music to hear while I sleep... Raven or all the other , can suggest me a good background, noise, tones , and frequencie that can work GOOD to put on with affirmation and hear during the sleep ....??? Thanks this can be very help for me...

HI Raven, I wanted to compliment you on your work. Its very profound to me. I've been trying to save much of your BWgen presets with backgrounds into mp3's which I can take with me. Unfortunately there seems to be an issue with my system recording wave's while playing , so I've in the meantime been downloading your full programs which you have on savefile.com Unfortunately, half of them seem unavailable at the moment. Would you know of another place where these files are available for download? Thanks much. http://www.savefile.com/files.php?fid=9660927 http://www.savefile.com/files.php?fid=1903634 http://www.savefile.com/files.php?fid=9660927

16-Aug-2006, Raven

They aren't available anywhere else. I've only uploaded them to that single site. Savefile.com does sometimes do server maintenance that may make some files temporarily unavailable. Give it a few hours or maybe a day or two then try again. If Savefile becomes too unusable I will find an alternative site to upload the files to and provide links to access them. It appears this Bwgen site is accepting uploads once more. I have submitted a couple of new Bwgen presets. If all goes well they should be available any day now for download. ~Raven~

20-Aug-2006, Raven

The files I provided on the Savefile.com website should be available once again within 48 hours. Savefile.com is migrating file servers to improve performance and has suspended all downloading until the migration is complete. I will provide the download links when this process is complete, as the existing links may no longer be valid. ~R~

25-Aug-2006, Raven

The files at the SaveFile.com site are being uploaded once more. They appear to have finished migrating to their new file server. In order to save time I will post master links that lead to several broad categories of files I've uploaded. That way instead of copying and pasting multiple links you just have to paste one and it will, for example, take you to the page where all of the audio files are listed and available, or all of the written informationj, etc. Full entrainment files combining binaural, monaural and isochronic programs: http://www.savefile.com/projects/712695 Please note, I have not restored all the files that were there previously yet as the upload process is fairly slow. Additionally, I will soon upload several new programs including a Schuman Resonance file and a .2Hz Gamma file and perhaps a couple of others, so check back from time to time. Written information and instructions: http://www.savefile.com/projects/927788 Bwgen presents and accompanying background sound files that are too large to upload to the Bwgen site: http://www.savefile.com/projects/696166 Hopefully the download times on all these files will be a bit quicker now that SaveFile.com has new and improved servers. ~R~

13-Sep-2006, satish

Can we listen to these presets while doing other work like on computer or while workout on a treadmill? Is it necessary to attentively listen to it?

14-Sep-2006, Raven

It depends on what entrainment wave you are listening to. Some waves facilitate learning and retention of the studied materials, so yes, you could read or study with that entrainment program on and it would actually improve the quality of your study time. Other frequencies help you to focus, so working on the computer might be more productive if you listened to one of those frequencies. But you can't mix and match frequencies with activities and expect to get desired results. You cannot, for instance, sit down with an entrainment program geared towards helping to attain a meditative state of mind, like a deep theta or even delta frequency, and expect it to help you write a better novel. The activity is in conflict with those particular brainwave patterns. So choose your entrainment frequency to match your planned activity. The information I provided in the download links in an earlier post here regarding entrainment and meditation provides more information about this kind of matching. ~Raven~

16-Sep-2006, satish

Thanks for response, I have downloaded most of your mp3 files and these are excellent, and instantly produced the desired effect as explained by you. Good work keep it up. As you can see i am new to entraining my brainwaves. However i have tried meditation but with little progress/growth. Can we listen to one after another like primal and eternity or awakeningmeditation 6.1. Initially when i tried doing this i got headache. I was scared and stopped using these for some time. Also can we use different entrainment on different days? is it harmful in any way? Thanks in advance.

17-Sep-2006, Raven

Listening to different entrainment programs in series shouldn't produce any ill effects. Logic would suggest you would combine them so that they merge into each other. For instance, you start with a deep theta, move to a higher theta, then to a deep alpha, and so on. I suppose you could mix them up, i.e., start with a deep delta and jump to a theta, then back to an alpha, or something like that. It wouldn't be my personal preference, but I suspect it wouldn't do any harm, either. Regarding headaches, the actual entrainment waves themselves can be heard as "beating" noises. In some programs they are pronounced; in others you can barely hear them at all. If you use headphones, particularly when listening to programs having very audible entrainment waves, that beating sound could cause a headache. If you're using a purely binaural program you have no option about headphones; they are virtually required (unless you can position yourself perfectly in the middle between two standard speakers,) for you to get the benefit of entrainment. In that case your only option is to turn down the volume on the program. If you're going to have drumming going on in your head then at least it should be quiet drumming. On the programs I provided for downloading, each of them is composed using binaural, monaural and isochronic wave patterns. That means you can listen to them without need of headphones. You won't get the binaural effects, but the monaural and isochronic wave entrainment will not be affected by lack of headphones. Try those programs without headphones and see if it gets you around the headache issue. ~R~

02-Oct-2006, Satish

Raven I have this inhibition to go to stage and talk and also clarity in thoughts. Some time i am very passionate about an issue and the same issues looks frivilous some other time. What brainwave is causing this? or is there some entrainment to steady this pattern, drop inhibition and have clarity of thought at all times. ~S~

03-Oct-2006, Raven

Being nervous in front of groups is a common problem, Satish. Keep in mind that your brainwave patterns are not the "cause" of the situation. They are more like a by-product of your current situation. Let's use meditation as an example. We hook Tibetan lamas up to EEG devices and ask them to enter into a very deep state of meditation. Once they have achieved this we take a measurement of their brainwaves and find that their brains are producing much higher delta waves than they would in ordinary, waking consciousness. If we misinterpret the data we might think that the delta waves "caused" the lamas to enter into meditation. In truth, it is exactly the other way around. The lamas entered their meditative state and as a by-product of this state the brain increases its delta wave production. Some would argue that the delta waves are the reason for the meditative state, but I would counter that argument by calling their attention to the fact that delta waves are also found in deep levels of sleep. So if delta waves "cause" sleep, why didn't the lamas just go to sleep when their brains were producing all those delta waves? Why meditation and not sleep? The answer is that there is a "correlation" between delta waves and mediation, and there is a "correlation" between delta waves and sleep. "Correlation" and "causation" are not the same things. Many people, when they are anxious, nervous or agitated, have a great increase in their brain production of beta waves in the 25Hz to 40Hz range. That doesn't mean those waves are causing the anxiety. However, there is probably a correlation between the two. So in your case you could listen to some slower wave entrainment programs before getting up in front of people. That might help, but often it isn't practical to be sitting on the stand waiting to speak to a group of people with a set of headphones on. Also, what if your nerves act up during the time you are speaking? Not much chance of your listening to an entrainment program at that point. You would probably do better using some deep, rhythmic abdominal breathing. This kind of breathing quite naturally slows your brainwaves down. Better yet, use an entrainment program while you practice the breathing technique. One will enhance the other. Then before you speak, use the breathing technique. And if you get nervous while you're speaking, pause and take a mini-deep breath or two. It isn't difficult to sneak them in, and because you have conditioned yourself to relax and slow down by breathing you'll find in time that taking even a couple of deep breaths acts as a trigger for the nerves to calm down and the brainwaves to slow. One nice technique for breathing is to imagine you are breathing into and out of your heart, right in the center of your chest. Breathe in for 5 seconds, breathe out for 5 seconds. No big pauses inbetween breaths. Just in for 5, out for 5, and imagine the breath going directly into and out of your heart. This is a breathing technique that is taught to people who have hypertension (high blood pressure). It slows the heart rate, decreases blood pressure, and tends to lead the brain into a state that produces more alpha waves. Try that and see if it helps. ~Raven~

09-Oct-2006, Brett

Raven how do I create isochronic tones with Bgen? B

11-Oct-2006, Raven

Hi, Brett. To get isochronic waves with the Bwgen software you need to go to the "Sound" tab, then click the "Modulation" button. By default it's set to Off. A dropdown menu will appear on which you need to make a change. It will say "No Modulation". Change that to "User Defined". Now that you're set up to create isochronic waves you need to figure out how to specify the Hz frequency. All isochronic waves are is a modulation of the volume, from a higher volume to a lower one, or even to no volume, then back to the original volume, and so forth. The rate at which you modulate the volume IS the isochronic wave. Once you set modulation to "User Defined", as outlined above, you'll see the setting controls for modulation. Whatever Hz frequency you want your wave to be, just divide that number into 1000. If you get a number with a decimal (i.e., 1000 divided by 12 = 83.333333...), just round up or down to the nearest whole number. That will get you close enough. So, as in the example above, if you wanted a nice, 12Hz alpha wave in isochronics, you would set the modulation to 83 milliseconds. If you wanted a 6Hz theta wave you'd set it to 167 milliseconds (that's 1000 divided by 6, rounded up to the nearest whole number.) That's all there is to it. ~R~

16-Oct-2006, Raven

You must have the Bwgen program to run .bwg files. The free version of the program plays only those presets that come with the program itself. To import and use presets created by other people you must purchase the full version of the Bwgen software. ~R~

17-Oct-2006, Seeker

This preset is even good to listem,when you go to sleep.Very good preset overall: 30/10,nice work !! Is this preset good for lucid dreaming, to listen after WBTB?

17-Oct-2006, Raven

Primal Overtones is right at the theta/delta cusp(4Hz) so it could be used for lucid dreaming. I'm not sure what the acronym you used "WBTB" means. Sorry. ~R~

19-Oct-2006, Tyler

Raven, is it okay for one to overlap isochronic tones, or does this ruin the effect? also how do monarul beats work and how can i incorporate them into a preset with binarul and isochrinic beats? thanks so much, i love your presets. ~Tyler

19-Oct-2006, Raven

Tyler, I'm not certain what you mean when you ask about "overlapping" isochronic tones. If you are asking if you can use isochronic waves in combination with monaural and/or binaural waves the answer is yes, definitely. All the programs I provided for free download on the savefile.com site utilize all three kids of waves. However, if you're asking if you can use multiple Hz frequencies of isochronics at the same time, my answer is, no, don't mix frequencies. That goes for isochronics, monaural and binaural waves. Again, on the savefile.com site I've provided some fairly detailed written material explaining why I do not mix frequencies. I won't repeat it all here, but would refer you to the material at savefile.com. As for making monaural waves, you can produce them by placing two different tones in the same ear. To make a binaural wave, for example, a 6Hz binaural wave, you put a 100Hz wave in one ear and a 106Hz wave in the other. The brain tries to match the two waves but can't. So it produces a third wave which is equal to the difference between the 100 and the 106 Hz waves. That gives you a 6Hz binaural wave. To make a monaural wave you simply put the 100 and the 106 waves into both ears rather than separating them. That isn't the only way to do it, but it is the only way I know of using the Bwgen software. ~R~

Hello Raven, I read all that you say here and I learn interesting things. I like your preset, it very god work! I have one question: what you say abaut Box X metod (create by James Mann).With this method, are used 2 voice and result 2 binaural and two monaural beats. I ask your advice, because you I think you know what you say. Thanks!

19-Oct-2006, Raven

There is a nice introduction on creating a harmonic X box here: http://f1.grp.yahoofs.com/v1/8JI3RQ1xXSAP_zxIy-7GiTkHq_7GfmfhPOfeNroNut1742zu3Jndt5IkWj0HwQUHOC39iaiwrRfhhsQVAAzoPLCoErTeOwLnow/Harmonic%20Box%20X%20method.txt ~R~

Raven, I know you do private commisions and such, but do you have any commercial CD's available to the public? I've downloaded all your free stuff, and I like it very much. I'd like more and I'm willing to pay for it. Kirk

20-Oct-2006, clau

Hay Raven, The link it's not working. But I read documentation about Harmonic Box X at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/bwgen/files/Harmonic%20Box%20X%20method.txt I make copy and paste here to read everyone are interesting(it's not may work, it's just a copy): "Box X is a method of combining 2 different voices (actually 4, thus the "box") and entraining the brain using binaural AND monaural beats. Harmonic (and half-harmonic) BoxX involves focusing on a specific frequency and multiples of it. Harmonic Box X is an incredibly effective way to entrain the brain. So far I've found that it is at least 3 times as effective for me. The deep meditation ones I made are very fast and effortless in execution. I might upload one to the files directory if anyone is interested. This is a quick way to make a harmonic box X (described by James Mann in Awakening Mind I) in bwgen. For this demo: Take a desired binaural beat frequency of 15 (beat) Take an audible pitch of 500 (pitch) Step 1) Add voice 1, assign pitch and beat as above Step 2) Add voice 2 Step 3) For voice 2 pitch, multiply beat by 2 and subtract from pitch. So pitch - (beat * 2) or 500 - (15 * 2) = 470 Step 4) For voice 2 beat, multiply the voice 1 beat (15) by -1, which would make it -15 And that's it! You got yourself a harmonic box X The pitches are now as follows: V1: 507.5 | 492.5 V2: 462.5 | 477.5 507.5 - 492.5 = 15 462.5 - 477.5 = -15 492.5 - 477.5 = 15 [monaural] 507.5 - 477.5 = 30 [crossover freq] 492.5 - 462.5 = 30 [crossover freq] 507.5 - 462.5 = 45 [monaural] I've found this to be particularly effective with Schumman frequencies, using 7.83 as the base. Can produce some interesting effects to say the least." What you say about this method? This mixing of binaural and monaural ..it's OK? clau

20-Oct-2006, Raven

Kirk, I am slowly but surely working up a collection of commercial programs that I will offer for those who wish to purchase them. The ones I offer for free download are very high quality even though they are mp3 compressed and, of course, shortened in length so that the size is small enough for me to upload and for you folks to be able to download. I would venture to say that they are as effective, and probably more effective than just about anything else you will find commercially available on the market today. For one thing, it is only in the relatively recent times that isochronic have wave forms have been recognized as being superior in many ways to their more well known binaural cousins. The combination of all three, binaural, monaural and isochronic waves is something very few manufacturers are putting out. So be patient. In the meantime I'll most likely add a few more downloadable programs to the Savefile.com site. Quite honestly, it's more important to me that as many people as possible be able to obtain and use these kinds of tools than it is that I make a financial profit from it. I get quite a few e-mails from people asking about them, or for help in creating their own programs, and probably 50% or slightly more of these come from people who live outside the USA. Many of them come from countries in which their currency value is far below the US dollar. If I were to ask them to pay even a few dollars for the costs of programs it could translate into a week's worth of wages in their currency. They'd never be able to afford it. So my main focus has been on creating and offering as much as I can for free download. So, again, be patient. Ultimately I will offer commercial CDs for those who would like them. ~R~

20-Oct-2006, Raven

Clau, mixing binaural, monaural and isochronic wave formats is not only "OK", it is much more effective than using any one of them alone. ~R~

22-Oct-2006, jen

I've downloaded the mp3 files to my Itunes and am going to try and burn them to my Ipod or a CD. I really like them. Eternity is actually a bit...intense and primal. I emailed you privately. I definitely would love some kind of CD in mostly theta/delta. Your work is great and wonderful. Thank you.
