Case Study · Spotlight 003

Therapeutic sound,
generated live.

Pulse is a browser-native sound-therapy engine I designed and built end-to-end. It synthesizes binaural, pulsed, AM, and vibrotactile frequencies in real time on the Web Audio API — nothing recorded, nothing installed, no account. And it's honest about the science.

The Idea

Synthesize, don't stream.

A frequency isn't a file to download — it's a number an oscillator can produce on the spot.

The problem

Most sound-therapy apps ship pre-rendered audio behind an install, an account, and a paywall — big files for what is, fundamentally, a pure tone. You can't nudge a frequency by a hertz, layer two together, or hear it the instant you land.

The approach

Build the whole thing as a live oscillator graph in the browser. Every tone is generated on demand — zero recordings, instant playback, and infinitely tweakable.

No account, no install, no sign-up. Open the page and it's already running.

Delivery Modes

Four ways to feel a frequency.

Pulsed Tones

Audible on-off gating of a tone — the rhythm you hear, no headphones required.

waves

Smooth AM

Continuous amplitude modulation for a gentler, sustained version of the same pulse.

headphones

Binaural Beats

Two slightly detuned tones, one per ear, that the brain fuses into a beat. Headphones only.

speaker

Vibrotactile Sub

Sub-bass frequencies meant to be felt as much as heard — laptop, phone, or powered subwoofer.

Three Doors

Tonight I want to…

Start from intent, not jargon. Each preset is a tuned starting point you can stack and reshape.

2 Hz
Sleep

Deep Delta

A slow delta-range pulse for winding down and drifting off.

15 Hz
Focus

Mental Sharpness

A beta-range pulse aimed at alert, heads-down concentration.

30 Hz
Body

Body Resonance

A gamma-range frequency you feel physically — built for somatic awareness.

Presets are only the entry point. Underneath, Pulse is a stackable session builder — layer multiple frequency components, mix delivery modes, and tune the result to whatever your ears (or speakers) want.

Honest by Design

Including “we don't know.”

The space around “healing frequencies” is full of overclaiming. Pulse takes the opposite stance: every frequency card states what the research actually supports — and where it doesn't, it plainly says we don't know.

Evidence-informed, not hype. It treats the user as someone who can handle the truth, which is the same principle behind everything I build.
