Questions about LMS 5.75.6

[Shannon]

Okay, I’ll start out with a speaker first. Thank you!

You are quite welcome.

Hi Shannon, will ultrasonic be effective when the sound is transmitted directly to the brain? I have gotten a transmitter that is able to transmit the sound data from my phone directly to my cochlear implant (practically directly to my brain).

I’m assuming that the masked version should work with this as the risk of my hearing not picking up the subliminal audio is eliminated completely, unless I configure the volume inappropriately. :p

To summarise, the sound will not be played out loud from the speakers at all. The sound is transmitted directly from the phone, to the transmitter, then to my implant and the brain. 

Also, I would like to clarify what volume to listen to the subliminal at? (With the transmitter) I’ve been following this analogy: Listen to them at the same volume in which you would watch pewdiepie at haha

As I said before, that depends on whether or not the microphone is able to accurately pick up and reproduce the pitch of the ultrasonic audio, and the electronics of the implant do not artificially limit the pitch you can experience.  I can't know if that is happening, so I can't answer that.

Further more, as best we understand, ultrasonics audio is only "audible" by virtue of the fact that it vibrates the tiny hairs inside your cochlea and possibly also inside the semicircular canals.  I don't know if this might bypass the need for anything else, or possibly hinder it.  

I’m assuming that the masked version should work with this as the risk of my hearing not picking up the subliminal audio is eliminated completely, unless I configure the volume inappropriately. :p

Masked audio is at the normal pitch for speech, but it is not at the normal volume.  It is hidden in another sound.  As far as I can work out, masked should work if you're using a cochlear implant.

To summarise, the sound will not be played out loud from the speakers at all. The sound is transmitted directly from the phone, to the transmitter, then to my implant and the brain.

 

So that would mean the limitations would be... can the transmitter transmit audio of that pitch? Can the implant handle it?

Also, I would like to clarify what volume to listen to the subliminal at? (With the transmitter) I’ve been following this analogy: Listen to them at the same volume in which you would watch pewdiepie at haha

That's a funny analogy, but you're actually on target.  The way to set volume is to listen to one or both of the masked tracks and set them to a comfortable volume.  That should work fine for ultrasonic.
