2b audio stimfile creation
Posted: Fri Jan 28, 2022 10:51 am
Hi peeps
Just wondering if I could get some input on how yall go about creating your audio stimfiles? I've been experimenting with creating my own, I've made a 25min long file which turned out ok... But not fantastic like some of the others I've used. My latest foray was generating a 140hz square wave in Audacity, importing that into Ableton and using envelopes to modulate the volume into interesting shapes and patterns. It felt nice, but there were parts that didn't feel as nice as I'd hoped and some parts there was barely any feeling!! Just a matter of experimentation and testing, which I am definitely not opposed to!
I've noticed that a lot of files I've listened to also modulate the frequency of the wave, something I've yet to learn how to do in Ableton with my amateur production skills LOL. Does the variance in frequency translate into a noticeable difference in feel? I wanted to create a test file with a constant volume wave that rised in pitch so I could hook myself up and see for myself how it felt, but alas my Ableton knowledge is very limited and I dunno how to do that.
Any input on this topic would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks yall!!
