Soundsory taps into the universal power of music with a playlist of enhanced rhythmic songs. A patented dynamic filter makes the higher-pitched sounds crisper while softening lower pitches. Combined with tempo changes from song to song, Soundsory stimulates our hearing and balance systems. This challenges the brain and helps form neural connections.
