ToneGen your way to the Center of the Universe

What if I told you that Tone Generator Software could cure cancer or could attribute itself to miracles? Not a bold enough statement? What if I told you that it could elevate human kind to the highest levels of human consciousness and understanding and perhaps save the planet?

The 528 Hz frequency, also known as the Solfeggio or love frequency, is associated with everything from DNA repair to miracles. Found especially within new age belief circles, proponents of the theory claim that the entire universe is constructed through a musical, mathematical matrix composed of nine core creative frequencies. According to the belief, the Solfeggio frequency is the key component of this matrix and the frequency can be found in everything from sunlight to oxygen and all manners of human interaction from laughing to yawning. It is also sometimes called the love frequency, a frequency that can help human beings achieve a higher level of consciousness, purpose and ultimately, world peace.

It might sound crazy and if you’ve never heard of the 528 Hz anomaly before, you’re probably not alone...but that doesn’t mean you’re not subliminally aware. Many believers contend that people are aware of this frequency at a purely subconscious level, as it resonates outward from people as joy. By shutting out negative frequencies (such as A440 Hz) and embracing the positive, one can achieve a deeper understanding of self and live a happier, healthier and more fulfilling life, existing as one with the center of the universe.

Ready to achieve a higher level of purpose? If so, ToneGen can help you get started. It’s free to try and easy to use, so set the frequency to 528 Hz, light a candle and meditate your way to the center of the universe.

If you'd like to learn more about the Solfeggio frequency, here's a good place to start. http://www.burlingtonnews.net/blog/?p=16

Create Unique Sounds with MixPad and WavePad

MixPad is typically used as a multitrack audio recorder and mixer instead of spending 10’s of thousands of dollars for a professional multitrack mixing desk. However, I like to use MixPad to create a variety of unique sounds I can use as sound effects or to play on my synthesizer. These sound effects can be used in commercials, movies, videos, music, audio programs, or by DJs on the radio. I still have a synthesizer in my basement midi studio that utilizes waveform oscillators to create sounds. One of them was advanced for the time and had 3 oscillators to create sound. With MixPad, I can create sounds with a virtually unlimited number of oscillators by loading snippets of sounds on the tracks and mixing them to create a new unique sound. MixPad has given me a range of possibilities I hadn’t had before.

To create your own sounds, once MixPad and WavePad are installed, all you need is a sound or waveform. You can get this from WavePad’s new sound library, NCH Tone Generator (another handy program from NCH Software), load an mp3 from your computer, rip tracks from a cd, or record a new sound with a microphone. I would begin in WavePad and play around with the sound. Listen to it forwards, backwards, apply live effects, etc. Once you have the fundamental sound, you can load it into MixPad to mix with other sounds. MixPad will allow you to stagger and mix the various snippets of sound you create. The result is a unique sound envelope that is yours and doesn't exist anywhere else in the world. Vanilla Ice could have learned a lot from this simple technique back in the early 90’s.
