Guest guest Posted July 8, 2003 Report Share Posted July 8, 2003 , I agree that the NeuroCybernetics has excellent Alpha/Theta. The best approximation we have in BMr is to use MIDI sounds, and set a "go" on alpha and theta, as in the "deep" and "deep2" protocols, and pick a nice sound such as echo drops, seashore, bowed glass, etc. This does provide relaxing sounds, and also provides modulation of the amplitude, which is very informative and dynamic, yet soothing. Another option is to use "component sounds" and put high thresholds on alpha and theta, so you hear the unique sounds individually, but not all the time. You can substitute sounds in the files "sayalpha.wav" and "saytheta.wav". We have some nice water sounds, etc., on the brainm "files" section of the web site, and I know Pete Van Deusen has also uploaded some nice sounds for this type of use. We plan to add the multiple sounds with gongs, etc., in a future update to the software, but no firm schedule yet. Tom [brainm] I am looking for a good substitute for Alpha Theta as produced by the EEG Spectrum system. This has sounds indicating a general alpha or theta state, a deep ocean wave or a shallow brook. Then there are brief sounds indicating bursts of alpha or beta. After a crossover the inhibits are changed from 15-30 hz to 2-5 hz. Sounds are the weakest link of the Brainmaster software. Is there any other software that will play on that platform that can aproximate this paradigm? I want to sell my cumbersome system.Thanks------------------------------------------------------------------------Support eGroup for BrainMaster owners and users with practical, clinical and nonclinical questions and issues.Subscription Info: brainm------------------------------------------------------------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
