Brainwave Audio...

[Flubly]

Hey, I've found a few mp3s that people swear get them lucid dreams. Right now I'm trying to experiment and see if the same works for dream recall. I noticed that brainwave generators are used in a lot of these mp3s but I'm not sure which kinds. Can anyone give me tips on what kind of waves to use and what intensities are usually best? On one computer I have cool edit pro 2 which has a Brainwave Synchronizer giving you options on applying Theta, Beta, or Alpha brainwaves to a piece of audio and then controlling the waves intensity in Hz. On my other computer I have Adobe Audition which is cool edit pro bought out by adobe and polished up. It doesn't have the Brainwave Synchronizer but a program called a Binaural Auto-Panner whose roots are obviously in the old program but dropped any info concerning the alpha, beta, or theta waves. Will these programs work?

Its not my place to say, but I wouldn't have thought its something realistic.

I have no idea if brainwave generation actualy works, but I believe there has been some research into this, so it's possible. I still wouldn't bother with it for recall, though. Keeping a dream journal, and being in the right mindset, and thinking (and believing), "I will recall my dreams" works great. Where did you find the MP3s though. If it gives me lucids, I'll listen to just about anything.

Well that would be kind of the reason I'm trying it... to see if it works. There is a lot of brainwave stuff out there and yes you can apply its success to power of suggestion but then again you can do that for anything. In my opinion saying "I will remember my dreams" is power of suggestion. While people are more skeptical about Brainwave stuff because it hasn't been medically proved, engineers do put it in mainstream programs under the name Binaural Auto-Panning because it does seem to have the ability to trick the brain. Anyway it is not any reason not to try since most brainwave generators on the net are free, there's no way they can scam you unless it has spyware cause there's no money involved.

ahem! May I point you to http://dreamviews.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1652 The first (and obviously the best) of the dreamviews tutorials. Perhaps you'll find some interesting info on brainwave entrainment over thar!

i use a combination of theta and delta waves. they totally work. however when i stopped using them i had a week's worth of nightmarish sleep paralysis. the theta waves can also give you spontaneous orgasms, i've found, if you are sensitive to threshold states

And better yet, Artelis gives full tech-support on it and can give you presets anytime you want

I have used bwgen as well, but I use it mainly to relax my body. I can also use hypnotic suggestions, but it is up to me to do the work myself to attain lucidity. Sometimes lucidity comes by accident. In that case it could be a fluke, but I wouldn't think that sound waves by themselves would induce lucidity. However, there are ways to use the frequencies to help you become more conscious during sleep, but there have been many times where I miss obvious signs in a dream, so nothing is guaranteed.
