I made these binaural beats from scratch! Either I'm bad at searching or seriously close to zero info exists online on how to make these sounds. Dive into the rabbit hole, and you'll find a video or two that show how to make one frequency, but nothing about the symphony. I guess it's just expected someone should have general music making knowledge. Have no fear! I did the research so you don't have to. I basically just downloaded some of my favorite binaural beat tracks and analyzed the frequencies, to see how they do it.
- First using free software like audacity, generate the individual frequencies. I used 500, 400, 300, 200, 100, 80, 50, 30hz (the last three are unnecessary, but I had to cut some of the deep frequencies from the original audio because of shaky hands and the vibrations they jiggled into the mic. So these frequencies filled in the gap). You do this by generating a 400hz tone on one side (channel) and a complementary 404hz channel on the other (delta wave). A combination of magic and science that I won't pretend to understand, causing a pleasant oscillating sound know to induce sleep.
- Secondly, this is the fun part. Add a reverb to the frequencies. It gives them life, and lets the volume fluctuate oh so slightly. You can go as crazy as you want with this, I choose to play it safe for my first track.
- Third! Place them all on a timeline and start mixing. Really whatever sounds good to you, is the right call. Yet here is a general outline: Vary the volume with a smooth curve, about every 25 seconds you should increase the volume for intervals of 6-7 seconds. Add smaller bumps in volume once every while to fill gaps. Lastly, pan each frequency. From left to right, about every 25s bump on volume you should have the channel volumes adjusted. (I did something like, -25, -80, 30, -90, 15, 45 etc)

#ASMR, the acronym doesn't matter so let's just relax. I'll be the first to say, I did too much in this video. Tried HDR for the first time, let me know how it worked for you. Personally, it looks great on all my devices. I noticed youtube makes multiple files, one in standard rec.709 which will be displayed at a much lower bitrate and another in HDR which is only viewable on appropriate screens. I remember on one of my older phones, watching HDR was a pain: the brightness would be maxed out and the overall image would look... odd. I really hope that isn't the case here, and everyone can enjoy this video, as I'd like to do more in the future.
