Step 8: Choosing the Frequency Variation

In the section labeled Frequency Variation you can influence the intervals of audio-
visual stimuli during the session. You have the choice between three frequency variation 
levels: low, medium and high level of frequency variation.

Frequency variations

• 

If you would like to experience a relaxative session we recommend the selection 
of a low frequency variation. This means that there will be longer time periods 
inbetween the frequency markers, resulting in longer time periods for changes in 
stimulation frequency and color. 

• 

For the brain to receive a more diversified and stimulating session, we recommend 
a medium level of frequency variation. More markers will be implemented and 
there will be more audio-visual shifts.

• 

For the area of performance improvement, we recommend a high level of frequen-
cy variation. The session will include a lot of shifts in audio-visual stimulation.

Please make sure to consider your personal intentions for the session, before 
selecting your subject. Your goal should match the selections you make here!
