Using sound to get 'high'

Brings new meaning to Sex, drugs, and rock&roll...

Apparently, they are using binuaral beats to alter the brain waves. I wonder what this will sound like on a big system???

The effect can be quite pleasing and possibly emotional (once you get into it), if not feeling a little weird / phasey at first.

BT used this technology throughout his This Binary Universe DTS DVD. I had a chance to listen to it through a dual SVS setup...comfortably loud.

I listened to the Youtube link on there...didn't do anything for me...I think it would make me sleepy.

Got a laugh out of the article.

That "Gate of Hades" is child's play.

Put that technology into the hands of an artist that knows how to use it like BT (mentioned above):

(Must be heard live, start-to-finish, in 5.1 to fully appreciate)

or an engineer like John Bedini:

This is actually quite a point of interest for me. I help out with a halloween show every year, and part of the event involves an entrance through a haunted house. The first year I stepped up the haunted house by adding my AT to the system, and the next year it was two ATs + a number of hidden speakers throughout the house, plus some infrasound tracks I created to lay under the running thunder/lightning track. Last year I altered the infrasound track by separating the ATs to opposite ends of the house and including some low-level low frequency tones that combine to create harmonics in the 3-6hz range. While testing it out I was told by my friends who were building out some of the rooms in the house that I needed to turn it off because they were becoming increasingly uneasy and agitated with it running. I'm going to do some more testing and experimentation this year to see if I can take it to another level of disturbing.

Haha, I want to do this!!

I haven't helped out with a haunted house since college. Loved doing them, whether it was setup or performance. Now that I have the rig, I'd *love* to do sound for one of them.

Maybe I can find a local charity that's going to do one.

nice music great to place it in a very echoey place

[CafSentryGnome]

is there anymore info on these effects. im interested in how it works. using subsonic sound to scare people/animals is interesting. i have noticed that people with subs in there cars tend to see less kangaroos on the road. also could explain why there are some home theater systems with 2 sub woofers i always just thought it was for marketing reasons.
