How This Binaural Beat Generator Works
The player sends one steady tone to the left channel and a slightly different tone to the right. The number shown on each preset is the frequency difference between those tones.
Stereo headphones are recommended because each ear needs to receive its own channel. The presets are listening options, not medical care, and they do not promise a particular mental state.
Choosing a Preset and Volume
Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta, and Gamma are conventional names for frequency ranges. Try a preset because its sound feels suitable for the activity, not because a label promises a specific result.
Keep the carrier tones quiet and comfortable. Short sessions are a sensible starting point, and the timer makes it easy to stop automatically.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need headphones?
Stereo headphones are recommended so each ear receives its intended channel. Speakers mix the channels in the room and reduce the intended stereo separation.
What do Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta, and Gamma mean here?
They label preset frequency differences. They are convenient listening categories and do not promise a particular mental or health outcome.
How loudly should I listen?
Keep the tones quiet and comfortable. Stop or reduce the volume if the sound feels irritating or uncomfortable.
