At one point on here (Maybe in the summer?) there were two 45 minute Hemi-Sync mp3s.
Suggested to listen through stereo.
I downloaded the first half but never got around to the second.
Now with an Ipod it's a tad easier I'd say.
IS the 2nd half still around?
I think I have them buried around here somewhere, I'll pm you if I can find them :)
Any chance of you doing the same for me? I did try one 'home-grown' LD induction mp3 which I downloaded from LD4ALL months ago, but it had no effect whatsoever on my dreams other than to make me wake up feeling somewhat 'psychedelic' along with everything else in the morning.Quote:

It had a very 'trippy' electronic music soundtrack with some verbalisation overlaid, the gist of which was, "You are dreaming. Become aware that this is a dream. It's time to do a reality check". The vocals were run through a delay (echo) unit and were also awash with reverb, which made them hard for me to understand, even in a waking state, although several people on the board reported positive results with the recording.
I wondered whether, as an added obstacle, the strong, slick, smooth American accent, rendered positively oily by the effects which had been applied to it, and which the verbalisations where recorded in, might be part of the problem: so different from any of the Commonwealth English accents which I'm accustomed to hearing on a daily basis (I don't watch, and rarely have in my life watched, American films or television programmes - I prefer British comedy and I don't have a television anyway, and found it boring and puerile as a child. Nor do I hear American voices in any other context than that of popular music, and over here it's by no means the dominant accent in that arena, as since the eighties a proportion of Australian vocalists have, belatedly, followed that proportion of their British peers and used their own accents for singing).
So an accent comparatively unfamiliar to me might be less likely to register as meaningful speech: the words be less immediately recognisable, and therefore meaningful, by the relative unfamiliarity of their sound, on the same principle which makes people of other races, whom we are not used to seeing a wide variety of regularly, hard to distinguish between (the stereotypical "all Chinese look the same" principle) might be at work too.
Maybe yours will be better. If the voice is not run through a delay unit, it's almost certain to. If not, I am in difficulties if I want to persist with the approach, as I no longer run a recording studio, and don't have a powered desk to plug my last remaining mic into (although creating synthesised music on my Mac and mixing it in should be no problem). But the last thing I'd want to hear in my dreams is the sound of my own voice <g>.
I've heard the Stuart Wilde recordings and his voice is very distinct and clear to me, but they seem to be only a meditation technique combined with audio BWE, not a lucid dream aid.
(Despite being a forty-one year old woman, I'm still mistaken for a teenaged boy - the second lowest vocal life form after that of the whining pre-schooler - on the telephone; my voice is a deep contralto, but flat and toneless rather than rich and feminine,) even though I'm a powerful rock/blues singer, health permitting as always. Apparently I lack the desirable internal cavities, and would probably only give myself depressing dreams of how much I don't sound like Aretha Franklin or Tina Turner <g>).
Absolutly no problem at all, I've been looking and I THINK I might have found where the little mp3's have been hiding...hold on...I think I found one...how to get it on here...hmmm...let me find a way and then I can pass it along :D

It's from Lucid dream tape series, and there's 6, but I only have the first 2.
