Frequently Asked Questions

Binaural beats are an auditory illusion created when two slightly different frequencies are played separately into each ear through headphones. Your brain perceives a third "beat" frequency equal to the mathematical difference between the two tones. For example, if 395 Hz is played in your left ear and 405 Hz in your right ear, your brain perceives a 10 Hz beat.

This perceived beat can influence your brainwave activity through a process called "frequency following response," potentially promoting relaxation, focus, sleep, or other mental states depending on the frequency used.

Yes, stereo headphones or earbuds are required for binaural beats to work. Each ear must receive a different frequency independently. Speakers won't work because both ears would hear both frequencies, preventing your brain from creating the binaural beat effect.

Any standard headphones will work - you don't need expensive audiophile equipment. The key is proper stereo separation between left and right channels.

We use Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) analysis to measure the exact frequencies generated by our audio engine. Every frequency is verified to be within ±0.01 Hz of the target - a precision level used in professional audio engineering.

We also measure Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) and verify it stays below 0.001%, ensuring clean, pure sine waves without audio artifacts. This level of quality control is what separates scientifically valid binaural beats from the "fake frequency" apps that dominate the market.

Binaural beats are generally considered safe for most people when used as directed. However, we recommend the following precautions:

  • Avoid if you have epilepsy or seizure disorders - certain frequencies may trigger photosensitive responses
  • Don't use while driving or operating machinery - binaural beats can induce relaxation or altered states
  • Consult your doctor if you have any neurological conditions
  • Start with shorter sessions (5-10 minutes) and gradually increase duration
  • Keep volume at comfortable levels - binaural beats work at low volumes

If you experience headaches, dizziness, or discomfort, discontinue use immediately.

Different frequency ranges promote different mental states:

  • Delta (0.5-4 Hz): Deep sleep, healing, pain relief
  • Theta (4-8 Hz): Meditation, creativity, hypnosis, REM sleep
  • Alpha (8-13 Hz): Relaxation, stress reduction, light meditation
  • Beta (13-30 Hz): Focus, active thinking, problem-solving
  • Gamma (30-100 Hz): Peak performance, memory, cognitive processing

Our preset library is organized by use case (Sleep, Focus, Meditation, etc.) to make selection easy. Each preset uses frequencies validated by published research for that specific application.
