I was using the iPod touch app "BinauralBeat" I had a combination of the concentration binaural beat at full volume and the ambient sound of hard rain and thunder at around half volume.

As for ninja and mancon, thank you for the welcome! I love how this community is so accepting of new members and helpful, mancon if you don't mind, what DO I think about when I'm deep into SP and want to finish the transition to full on dream? I mean no matter what you do, you have to have something in your head whether it be a place or an idea or even just a feeling. If you have any suggestions or can you tell me what YOU think about to enable the transition, I'd love your advice. =)
