Creating Your Own Binaural Beat Frequencies
When working with binaural beat frequencies, there is no true and tried
method or best program or sequence, only when you experiment and see
what works for you via trial and error will you get the best of the experi-
ence.
When using your PHOTOSONIX light and sound system, you have the
option to choose binaural beat frequencies from the menu of pre-existing
programs, or create your own.
Creating your own beat frequencies allows you to quickly determine the
real and actual effect that the binaural beats frequencies are having on
your mind/body connection. All PHOTOSONIX light and sound systems
utilize binaural beats; however to set your own beat frequencies manually,
you will need to use the Nova Pro 100, or the InnerPulse.
Older PHOTOSONIX systems also allow you to manually set beat frequen-
cies such as the Muse, Muse #, Nova, Nova Pro, Galaxy, and Galaxy Pro;
but do not have low frequency pitches that make beat frequencies a
powerful tool for affecting consciousness.
Regular headphones do not process pitches below 60 Hertz, this is the
reason you will need broad frequency headphones like the ultraBass
Headphones tested for PHOTOSONIX systems.

History of Pulsed Beats Frequencies
In experimental psychology and medical research communities; there has
been a fascination concerning repetitious sound waves, such as drums.
It is an anthropological observation that repeated drum beats, for example,
can quickly induce deep trance states, particularly at night next to a camp
fire where the flickering light of the flames creates its own trance-
type state.
Since the 1930s, researchers have investigated the impact of pulsed tones
to better understand their impact on brainwave states. Repeating tones,
however, can be annoying. Binaural beat patterns arose as an option
because they were more palatable to the ear, versus a constant beat in
that beat frequencies wavered up and down in volume, making it a gentler
experience for the brain to process.
Oster published a study in 1973 in Scientific American which
promoted the
use of low pitches, saying that they were more efficient to entrain
brainwaves. Low pitches mean, tones that are several octaves below
middle C on the piano.
