I've been using them for years and find they are really great for meditation, relaxation, or getting yourself into a deep focus mode. I'm a big fan and tend to pull them out every so often.

Do you use different binaural frequencies for each of your activities? Like theta for meditation, gamma for concentration?

[-] Soulcreator@programming.dev 1 points 5 hours ago

Oh yes, of course. I've played with a binaural beat generator to see how different tones affect me. For example gamma tones sound like a swarm of locust, but holy crap does it help me focus.

That said I will generally just search through YouTube as they will generally have a (somewhat) pleasant sounding binaural beats for just about any mood you are looking to invoke.

If you haven't yet, I suggest you play around with a few different tones and see how they affect you.
