About

Frequency & Tone Generator

Features
Read full description

Most frequency apps play one tone at a time. Kyma lets you stack as many as you want โ€” and shape every one of them. Name a state, press play, and the sound is already built. Or open it up and tune every layer yourself, the way you would tune an instrument. WHAT'S INSIDE โ€ข More than 190 sounds, filed by state: Focus, Calm, Rest, Recovery, Energy, Body โ€ข Pure tones, binaural beats, solfeggio frequencies and colored noise โ€ข Unlimited layers, each with its own volume, all playing at once โ€ข 12 native effects on every layer: filter, oscillator, harmonics, LFO, flanger, reverb, delay, chorus, envelope, arpeggiator and more โ€ข A live cymatic figure drawn by the audio that is actually playing โ€” not an animation BUILT FROM YOUR ANSWERS A short setup asks what you need and builds your first session while you listen. Each layer is added in front of you, and you hear it arrive. Nothing is picked from a menu. HONEST ABOUT THE SCIENCE Kyma cites 16 real studies on sound, music and sleep โ€” from Cochrane, The Lancet, PNAS, Neuron and others. Every one opens with a tap, so you can read the paper yourself. We do not claim those results as our own. NO ACCOUNT, NO ADS Seven sessions free. No sign-up, no email, nothing to cancel if you walk away. Headphones recommended for binaural beats โ€” they need one ear per channel to work. Kyma is a wellness sound tool for relaxation and focus. It is not a medical device, makes no diagnosis and offers no treatment. Terms of Use (EULA): https://kymaapp.com/terms/ Privacy Policy: https://kymaapp.com/privacy/
