Computer software, interface hardware

Under exploration.


It would be nice to use an approach similar to the Shakti helmet, which directly receives its pulse patterns from the PC soundcard. However, it seems that the audio output on soundcards is AC coupled and cuts anything below 20Hz. And as far as I understand, TMS devices operate at much lower frequencies.

Even though many sound card specification tables typically indicate this lower limit of 20Hz, I have produced frequencies below 1Hz using 'PureData' music software on various sound cards, and even using my Dell's standard sound chip. I'm pretty sure that as long as the software can generate the frequency, it will work. Conversely, soundcard's upper limit is of course the maximum it can physically achieve.
