Deos anyone know any good audio software? one where i can add multiple tracks togeather, and cut and chop it how i see fit? basically something like garage band, but without the price tag?

If you're using windows, linux or mac, [url=http://audacity.sourceforge.net]Audacity[/url] is the standard recommendation, and it will do everything you want.

Its a bit short on non-destructive editing, and the interface isn't the best for this kind of work, but it is the best I've found.

On windows mobile (like my phone), there's an app called WavePad that just about does the job, but you need a separate utility to convert the results to mp3.

Thank you demigraph. downloaded istalled and ready to go. Kinda hard to get the hang of though. Like putting a different track underneath one to enhance the effects that kinda thing is difficult haven't figured it out yet.
I guess like any new program there is a learning curve

I can't recommend anything better that is free - but if you need any tips on editing in general, just ask.

Ok well ive pretty much figured out how to use it, its straight forward and easy. Two more questions if anyone knows the answer. Is it possible to change a mono track to a stereo? and also does anyone know where i can get binuarals tracks or beats or even if i can make them myself and wich frequencies are safe?
Im pretty sure a subliminal is just one track layered under another but at a very low volume so you don't pick up on it right?

MN_Friendly guy explains things very well.

Just to clarify, the binaural effect is due to the difference in frequencies that you put into the left and right channels. You literally subtract one from the other. So to get a binaural of 5Hz, you could have 100Hz in the right ear, and 95Hz in the left (or 1000 and 995).

Human hearing is from about 60Hz to 15,000Hz (15kHz), but the range of say a telephone is only up to around 4,000Hz (4kHz).

It's best to experiment and research the most appropriate difference in frequencies on the web. Some of the people who contribute here have made many binaural recordings using lots of different techniques in combination. It would be an idea to ask them what they did. Most people are willing to share.

Still rather confusing but i see where i went wrong. one more question thought. If its best to get the listner into a certain brain state and the brain state i want to get them in is say alpha at 7Hz, would i put say left channel 7.1 and right channel say 7.4? just for experiments sake.
Where are all these huge numbers in the thousands coming from?

7Hz is inaudible. That's why you need to trick the brain into hearing it using binaural beats.

You'd probably use something like 4000Hz on one side and 4007Hz on the other to create a 7Hz binaural.

I make homemade files for myself and my boyfriend (online for the time being). I have a mic but I'm not confident with the hypnobility of my voice, so I just use Speakonia. I use the lowest voice possible.

What I do is to write a long script than has two main halves. As in, somewhat repeats what it says but with different wording. I render the whole thing as wav, then I take the half and cut and paste it to the beginning of the file. I render that, then I go in audacity and import both the wav files. I put one on the left channel and one on the right. This makes it so two voices are saying different things at the same time.

What you can do is to take a memorable loop and play it in the center channel, slightly higher than the other channels, in fact I sometimes pitch down the back channels 1.5 semitones. I use:


"Your subconscious, is opening to suggestions. Your mind, is training to more easily accept and obey, all suggestions in this audio file, and to keep them active in your subconscious throughout the day, every day."

The file should be a minute or two, depending on the script, and loopable.


I've had great effects with my boyfriend, just this way. We're both furries, so I made furry files for him, and tried a couple myself. Fun ensues.

I had another question. Audacity wont let me export files as mp3. How do i get it to do that?

Cooool thanks for being a friendly guy friendly guy.

Ok so i cant find this lame.dll file anywhere. where do i g to download it? cuase its nowhere on my comp.

never mind Google yielded appropriate results:) got it working

for a great explaination of Binaural effects see http://www.bwgen.com/theory.htm

Another program I find useful is Goldwave...mainly for editing. It is very user friendly and I have taken many files from here and edited and reassembled them to my own personal tastes and needs...e.g. taking out awakeners to make loops, combined my fave inductions with file bodies and tacked on my fave awakeners. I am not sure if it is available anywhere for free but it was worth the price since I do a lot of editing of various sound files.
