40 Hz Pulse Study II
Moves from Beta to Gamma — 16 Hz easing to 40 Hz over 3 minutes.
Choose the full transition or begin at the advertised audio target. You can scrub and extend either path in the player.
Frequency journey
How the rhythmic pulse embedded in the sound changes from the opening moments to its destination.
The embedded pulse gradually rises from 16 Hz (Beta) to 40 Hz (Gamma), adding rhythmic definition as the ramp progresses. The authored target begins at 3 min and holds for 10 min.
Long-form restorative listening
The restrained movement is designed for low-demand listening where continuity matters more than stimulation.
Give the transition room
Low-demand routines, quiet breaks, and extended periods of unwinding. Start quietly and let the ramp unfold instead of judging the session in its first minute. The target then holds for 10 min by design. You can also start directly at the target, scrub the journey, or extend the hold in the player.
Signal, not a scan. The line shows the modulation rate generated in the audio. It is not an EEG reading and does not promise that brain activity will follow the curve. Listening responses vary.

Choose the spatial feel
This session starts in isochronic mode. You can change how the beat is delivered without changing the frequency journey, or add a Shepard-Risset carrier drift for a continuously falling timbre.
- Monaural
- Two tones summed before they reach you, so the beat exists in the air rather than being built in your head. Smoother and less percussive than isochronic, and it works on speakers.
- Binaural— needs stereo headphones
- Two carriers a few hertz apart, one per ear. The beat is constructed in your brainstem, so it needs stereo headphones to exist at all.

How this one is built
Built around a 40 Hz gamma carrier structure with phase-amplitude coupling. The fastest modulation in the catalog, layered over a light noise bed.
Listen responsibly
Brainwavest is a wellness and relaxation tool, not a medical device. Session names and guidance describe design intent, not a promised physiological result. Binaural mode requires stereo headphones. Start quietly, and never use rhythmic audio while driving. Read the full safety notes.
