Misc. Binaural Beat MP3 Files
These binaural beat MP3 files are more complex than the fixed pitch or sliding files. They include either a pattern or mix of different frequencies. Think of them as a chord instead of a single note, curry instead of just one spice.
Some of these files are older than the single frequency fixed pitch binaural files. The descriptions are culled from the notes I made when I created the files. I apologize for not keeping better records.
Right-click on each filename to download the MP3 file. Save it to your hard drive, put it on your iPod/iPhone/G1 or MP3 player, burn it onto a CD, or listen to it on your computer. Remember you must listen to these files using headphones in order for them to work.
Set aside a regular time each day and find a quiet place to sit. Relax, focus on your breathing, and use these modest MP3 files as a tool. Establish the habit. It's a small investment with large rewards.
Nada Brahma Schumann Resonance My notes read:
10 minutes based on Nada Brahma (Sadja)
136.1 Hz C#
left: 136.1 -> 132.19 Hz
right: 136.1 -> 140.02 Hz
1 minute fade in, 1 minute fade out
Schumann Slide My notes read:
our goal is to funnel day-to-day beta waves (19.7 Hz) into alpha (7.83 Hz)
19.7 and 7.82 Hz are Schumann Resonances
given a 440 Hz base frequency:
slide 1 4 minute (24000 ms)
sine 1 left 459.7 Hz /447.83 Hz
sine 1 right 440 Hz/440 Hz
slide 2 6 minute (36000 ms)
sine 1 left 447.83 Hz
sine 1 right 440 Hz/440 Hz
the slide:
after a 5 second lead in, the first third takes you from beta to alpha and the last third hovers at a 7.83 binaural beat.
a minute fade in, a minute fade out.
Schumann Slide Kung is 20 minutes long. Be forewarned that this is a 18 meg file.
A3E3A2 is a compound sound and is described here (PDF). Actually it's more like notation than a narrative description.
Unless otherwise specified all binaural beat files are centered around a 136.1 Hz sine wave. This tone is called "Nada Brahma", the sound associated with Om.
I also made some meditation timers, both audio and video files of varying length. Time yourself from 10 to 30 minutes in 5 minute intervals. No binaural beats, just a single bell at the end of silence.
Don't stop. Learn more by reading some of these meditation books. Buy them or visit your local public library.
Don't forget to sit.
