Naja

Ich verstehe den Sinn dahinter aber was es erzeugen soll aber sie müssten noch viel mehr Funktionen haben wie zbs das man die Wellen kürzen kann das man ein guten Bass hat um es dann auf 16 Buttons zu legen. Dann noch mehrere Ebenen wo die gleichzeitig die Töne abspielen kannst etc. Ich glaube man versteht mein Ansatz aber ist wahrscheinlich schon Tod die App

Love it

Use it to create simple binaural tones and white noise to sleep. Also gives relief for tinnitus. Used it to test specific hearing loss frequencies. Truly useful free app.

Peut faire mieux

Volontairement très basique, donc très incomplet.
Mais intéressant pour l’expérimentation
(par exemple : pour entendre précisément l’effet des battements entre fréquences sonores exactes).

Ce qui est dommage, c’est qu’on ne peut pas cliquer sur l’affichage des valeurs de fréquences pour y entrer directement un nombre.

Not working.
