Rhythm Labyrinth · How Many Against How Many?

Three ratios in turn, in the same cycle: 2:3, 3:4 and 4:5. In each, try to count the low and the high pulse separately. In the panel's blind test you find the ratio by ear alone. A listening practice with no claim of any effect.

Compare with another sound

Hear both at the same loudness; drag the slider to the middle and they blend.

In the middle the two sounds truly blend; loudness is matched.

B: neighbours on the map

8 trials, half of them the same sound; get at least 7 right and the difference is audible. The result stays on this device.

S · Soundscape, no claim

No health or mental-effect claim at all; it is simply a soundscape.

This session isn't linked to any claim of effect.

A session's level is the weakest of its linked claims; it is never raised by a strong but unrelated claim.
