EquiSync Design Feature: Binaural Audio Technology
EquiSync: Constant Innovation. With 1000's of brainwave synchronization studies on the books and more
published by the week — EquiSync's carefully engineered, highly precise design is always incorporating the
latest & greatest scientific breakthroughs.
Our Unique Approach. Though certainly not the only way, binaural beats are perhaps the most well-known way of
deepening the meditative state. While they work best with certain "enhancement" techniques, EquiSync's design does
indeed include binaural beats — yet in a highly unique and super powerful way. You can learn the basics
of binaural beats below:
First Discovery. First discovered by Austrian physicist Heinrich Wilhelm Dove in the mid 20th century, the
last two decades have seen an amazing amount of scientific interest in therapeutic binaural audio technology —
with more than 3,000 studies conducted to date.
Gaining significant ground within the scientific community. Today, this simple yet highly effective
technology is used to create an unending list of positive mental states: meditation, relaxation, sleep, focus,
creativity, and more. With a massive "positive benefit" upside, a growing number of researchers, doctors,
scientists, and other professionals have implemented this powerful therapeutic tool in their private practices &
daily lives.
How Do Binaural Beats Work? Put simply, when two precise, yet distinct sounds are introduced, one to each ear
— the brain responds by producing low-frequency vibrations. The brainwave patterns then passively mimic the
difference between the two tones, with the user's state of consciousness following in-step.
Example. If 200 Hz is played in your right ear, and 190 Hz in your left ear, the difference between these
tones (10 Hz) will be experienced as a very relaxing alpha wave. After a few minutes, your state of
consciousness will mirror this particular 10 Hz brainwave, entraining your neural rhythms via what scientists
call "Frequency-Following-Response (FFR)". The countless positive mental, emotional, and physical benefits of the
alpha state then become instantly available to you — opening the door to profound results.
Advanced Binaural Beats. Many binaural beat users find that, assuming maximum binaural beat integrity is
maintained (very important!), a far deeper meditative state can be achieved through certain upgrades to the audio.
For this reason, EquiSync Deepereum & EquiSync Element both include two enhanced binaural beat options:
Vertical Modulation: With this feature implemented, the waveform will resemble more of a monaural beat than a
binaural beat. However, unlike a monaural beat, the left & right audio channels maintain their frequency (Hz)
difference (meaning that it still works like a binaural beat). Many users find this modification to be
extra-effective (versus standard binaurals), and therefore, very helpful for deep meditation.
Horizontal Modulation: Instead of a static left / right volume (as with standard binaurals), the horizontal
modulation feature rhythmically oscillates the volume from side to side, ear to ear (like a bilateral beat).
Assuming that maximum audio quality & left-right channel separation is maintained (as done with our program,
this is very important!), many users find this feature to be a powerful upgrade over standard binaural beats.
Like its vertically modulated counterpart, horizontally modulated binaurals are super effective for deepening the
meditative state.
Whether it's standard or enhanced binaural beats, you are encouraged to find what works best for you!
Note: We encourage you to learn about EquiSync's powerful and unique sound technology (where binaural beats
are but one basic aspect!) in the next sections.
EquiSync Design Feature: Isochronic Tones
Popular & Prominent. Known for their powerful "vibrating" quality, Isochronic Tones are a highly
popular & effective form of brainwave entrainment that, when present on a particular track — are unmistakable.
How Do They Work? On the most basic level, an isochronic tone is simply an audio signal that is turned on and
off quickly. The resulting "pulse" effect can be extremely effective when used for therapeutic purposes.
Great Precision. When implemented in a precise way, including when combined with certain entrainment
techniques & the "best" carrier frequencies (as done with EquiSync!) — isochronic tones can be an incredibly
valuable tool for creating a consistently deep, highly beneficial state of meditation.
Basic Structure. You can see the basic structure of these sound waves in the image below:

EquiSync Design Feature: SynchroWave Modulation
"SynchroWave Modulation" is a key feature on a select number of tracks — particularly EquiSync
Classic's "Second Edition" as well as EquiSync Deepereum's "VibraSphere" tracks.
How Does It Work? Put simply, rather than the background audio layer (i.e. the nature soundscape or ambient
music) serving the purpose of "masking" the brainwave synchronization tones (which newer users of the technology
typically prefer) —
the revolutionary SynchroWave Modulation feature transforms the whole
waveform into a
fully active entrainment layer (standing on its own).
Volume Modulation. By "modulating" the soundscape audio layer's volume, up and down, with great precision
— SynchroWave Modulation makes the whole waveform look and work like that of a monaural beat /
isochronic tone (see image below).
All Sound Layers In-Sync. From the bench to the field, this powerful feature gets the background audio back
into the game. With 100% of the sound working to deepen the meditative state — the door opens to an
incredible world of benefits!
The image below shows a typical soundscape audio's waveform before and after implementing this powerful
feature:

EquiSync Design Feature: Synergistic MultiLayering
When Mozart sat down to compose his legendary symphonies his job was to orchestrate all of the many notes,
chords, & rhythms available to him in his own masterful, unique way.
Likewise, when creating sound to deepen the meditative state, it's a precise orchestration of many variables:
brainwave frequency, carrier frequency, entrainment technique, entrainment pattern, soundscape type, volume levels,
resonance, and more.
Blending art & science, "Synergistic MultiLayering" is our unique method of combining all of these
variables into one highly effective piece of sound.
While Mozart would hand write his genius compositions onto sheet music, Synergistic MultiLayering is best
represented on our most advanced program: EquiSync Element.
Note: While EquiSync Classic, Deepereum, & Element all implement multilayering as described above, the
screenshots below are taken from the best illustrator of the concept — EquiSync Element.
The
real magic of Synergistic MultiLayering is in how the layers
all work together rather
than the attributes of any one layer.
Synergistic MultiLayering Example: The charts below show a single audio track with 3 entrainment
layers (labeled as "Elements") which create a super powerful effect when played at the same time.

EquiSync Design Feature: The Healing Power of Sound
As our understanding of the world grows, certain ideas once thought fringe are now becoming mainstream. Today, the
healing properties of certain sound frequencies are showing incredible promise.
Perhaps one of the most incredible experiments on the healing power of sound comes from the Japanese doctor
and bestselling author, Dr. Masuro Emoto. He conducted experiments into how positive & harmonic as well as negative
& disharmonic sound vibrations affect the structure of water molecules. He outlined what he found in his
groundbreaking book "Messages From Water".
Surprised and amazed with his findings, he discovered that after exposing water to certain sounds (including
words) during the freezing process — upon examination the frozen crystals would be either distorted &
misshapen or beautiful & highly geometric.
Dr. Emoto concluded that, in effect, everything is vibration. And that certain frequencies can indeed be a
form of healing energy for all forms of life. We humans are definitely impacted by this powerful phenomenon.
As the years and mounting evidence build, even the most hardened skeptics are opening up to the healing power
of sound and its vast potential.
Armed with this growing body of research, EquiSync's foundation is built upon the most harmonic frequencies
known to science (including the Solfeggio Frequencies, the full 528 Hz & 432 Hz scales, and more). Perhaps this is
why so many EquiSync users report amazing experiences with the program?
Want options? With the infinite programmability of EquiSync Element, you can do your own research (on
the web) and input any frequency that you like into the program — right down to the 2nd decimal! There
are no limits!
EquiSync Design Feature: DeepMind Drum Therapy
We have applied the incredible science behind drumming to a select number of EquiSync Classic & EquiSync Deepereum
tracks. Quite a few users report these as their favorites! You can learn a bit more below:
The Mental & Physical Benefits of Drums Used for thousands of years, drum therapy is a time-tested
method used to promote and maintain mental, physical, and spiritual wellness. In fact, scientists are becoming
increasingly interested in these age-old rhythm healing techniques, with more and more academic studies
verifying what our ancient ancestors have known through time.
Research has demonstrated the benefits of drum therapy for its ability to speed up physical healing, release
emotional issues, boost the immune system, create a deep sense of well-being, reduce stress, lower blood pressure,
and allow us to relax.
What Can Be Helped By Drum Therapy? Stress and all of its countless ugly derivatives, just to name a few:
anxiety, addiction, chronic fatigue, depression, asthma, hypertension, chronic pain, mental disease, cancer,
Parkinson's disease, emotional disorders, MS, heart problems, & and others. Here are a few results of
scientific studies showing the benefits of drumming:
Deactivate Stress Genes. As evidenced by countless studies, stress factors into almost all disease. A
landmark 2005 study published in the Medical Science Monitor found that listening to rhythmic drumming not only
decreases stress, but also turns off the stress response genes believed responsible for most common
diseases. Clearly, the implications for this finding are profound.
Liberate Emotional Blockages. Without a release valve, dysfunctional thoughts and feelings can create
certain kinds of energetic "blockages" that grow into much bigger problems. Sound vibration can stimulate deep
within each cell of the body, effectively removing said blockages and allowing any pent-up emotional
dysfunction a means of release. In a key 2003 study "Drumming Out Drugs", researchers concluded that drumming
can rebuild & integrate emotional health, while facilitating self expression.
Naturally Release Endorphins. A UC-Irvine researcher discovered that drum therapy can boost the body's
natural painkillers and mood enhancers: endorphins and endogenous opiates. These highly beneficial
neurotransmitters are best known for their ability to ease pain, lower stress, bolster the immune system, and slow
aging. Rhythmic drumming does all this naturally, and when combined with meditation, can work wonders.
Double Alpha Brainwaves. A study by clinical psychologist Barry Quinn Ph.D found rhythmic drums to double the
highly important "meditation brainwaves", producing feelings of euphoria and advanced mental states. Drum
therapy can bypass the sometimes steep meditation learning curve, condensing years of practice, allowing the
limitless benefits of this age-old practice to proliferate.
EquiSync Design Feature: The Purest Frequencies
"If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration."
— Nikola Tesla
Have you seen one of the recent viral videos demonstrating the power of "cymatics?"
In case you haven't, a sand covered metal plate and soundboard are the lone ingredients in this simple yet
impressive experiment.
And as the experimenter adjusts the frequency (measured in Hz) to certain levels on the audio spectrum, in response,
the vibrating sand would "magically" arrange itself into near perfect geometric patterns.
It was the incredible uniqueness and beauty of the "snowflake-like" or "crystalline" patterns (at their
respective frequency) that made the experiment so compelling.
While the experiment likely raises more questions than it answers, it does provide some powerfully
illustrative evidence to the idea that all sound is (NOT!) created equal.
And that, just perhaps, sounds vibrated at certain frequencies can impact consciousness in very positive
ways while opening the door to healing on every level.
EquiSync®: Choosing Carrier Frequencies
For the purpose of building a sound wave based program for deep meditation, EquiSync® contains
frequencies that are most favored among the meditation community, frequencies built upon the most solid
mathematical foundation, frequencies that are most well-known for their healing / therapeutic properties,
frequencies that are most resonant & congruent with their respective soundscape, and frequencies with the
most compelling scientific and anecdotal evidence.
EquiSync Deepereum: With a focus on the most popular tones, including the nine prominent Solfeggio
Frequencies (with 528 Hz a key ingredient!), and much of the 432 Hz / 444 Hz scale. EquiSync
Deepereum offers a spectrum of 29 carrier frequency profiles to choose from, with 3-5 options per
soundscape.
EquiSync Element: Want more options? With the program's infinite flexibility, EquiSync Element lets you
choose any frequency within the human audible range (0 Hz - 20,000 Hz) — right down to the 2nd decimal.
Generally speaking, if you don't have a preference / haven't researched the potential benefits of a particular
frequency, then we recommend simply choosing a carrier profile that is well-known and / or one that sounds the most
pleasing to you.
