  2. Robert Monroe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Monroe

    The technique involves using sound waves to entrain brain waves. Wearing headphones, Monroe claimed that brains respond by producing a third sound (called binaural beats) that encouraged various brainwave activity changes. [16] [21] In 2002, a University of Virginia presentation at the Society for Psychophysiologial Research examined Monroe's ...

  3. Beat (acoustics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beat_(acoustics)

    Monaural beats are combined into one sound before they actually reach the human ear, as opposed to formulated in part by the brain itself, which occurs with a binaural beat. This means that monaural beats can be used effectively via either headphones or speakers. It also means that those without two ears can listen to and receive the benefits."

  4. Music and sleep - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_and_sleep

    Binaural beats work by presenting two different frequencies to each ear that synchronize brainwave activity. Those two methods can be combined to improve sleep quality by targeting both the sensory experience and brainwave alterations.

  5. Binaural recording - Wikipedia

    Likewise, with the right ear spatial cues. This means the spatial effect of the binaural sound is compromised to a degree, and in some cases can sound a little odd. It is possible to convert binaural sound into a format that sits more naturally on a stereo loudspeaker system using software, such as Logic Pro's Binaural Post Processing plug-in.

  6. Psychoacoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychoacoustics

    The brain utilizes subtle differences in loudness, tone and timing between the two ears to allow us to localize sound sources. [10] Localization can be described in terms of three-dimensional position: the azimuth or horizontal angle, the zenith or vertical angle, and the distance (for static sounds) or velocity (for moving sounds). [ 11 ]

  7. Neuroscience of music - Wikipedia

    An example is the phenomenon of tapping to the beat, where the listener anticipates the rhythmic accents in a piece of music. Another example is the effect of music on movement disorders: rhythmic auditory stimuli have been shown to improve walking ability in Parkinson's disease and stroke patients. [41] [42]

  8. I-Doser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-Doser

    Research into the neurological technology behind I-Doser is sparse. Peer-reviewed studies exist suggesting that some specific binaural beat mixes can affect aspects of mental performance and mood, [4] [5] act as analgesic supplements [6] or affect perceptions, [7] but there have been no formal studies of any effects of mixes particular to I-Doser.

  9. ASMR - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASMR

    Viewing and hearing ASMR videos that comprise ambient sound captured through binaural recording has been compared to the reported effect of listening to binaural beats, which are also alleged to precipitate pleasurable sensations and the subjective experience of calm and equanimity. [46]
