MASKING TONE - Tinnitus Residual Inhibition Get temporary tinnitus relief backed by science. Masking Tone uses a clinically validated technique called Residual Inhibition (RI) - a well-documented method where brief exposure to a precisely tuned tone temporarily suppresses tinnitus. Up to 90% of tinnitus sufferers can experience RI. Most apps get it wrong. Masking Tone gets it right. HOW IT WORKS: - Step 1: Fine-tune the frequency to match your tinnitus pitch — precision matters. - Step 2: Find your Minimum Masking Level — the lowest volume that covers your tinnitus. - Step 3: The app sets the level 10 dB above that threshold — exactly where the science shows RI works. - Step 4: Listen for 60 seconds. When the tone stops, enjoy the silence. Try AM 10 Hz mode for deeper suppression — research (Neff et al., 2017) shows amplitude-modulated tones outperform steady tones and are better tolerated.
