Tinnitus is only possible if you are using the ultrasonic or hybrid track too loudly, or you are playing the masked tracks WAY the hell too loudly (heavy metal concert loudly) on speakers. If this is the case, all you need to do is adjust the volume downwards or switch to masked. I suggest that if you have ringing in your ears, it is most likely the ultrasonic being too loud, so just adjust it downwards a bit per day until that stops.

You can listen to it forever, as long as you're using it at a safe volume. I suggest you use it for (X-35) more days, where X is the date of release for DMSI 3.3.

I wasn't in either of this cases and I still got tinnitus from subliminals, so I doubt that it's the only possible way to get tinnitus.

I seriously doubt that. I would say you already had tinnitus and using the subliminals the way you did made it more obvious. But the masked tracks cannot give you tinnitus unless you use them at rock concert level volumes, because they are just like any other sound. Ultrasonic audio is known to trigger tinnitus, and it has to be used at lower volumes than masked to prevent that for some people.

You can seriously doubt about it if you want it doesn't change what I have experienced.
I never had any problem what so ever in my hearing before doing AM5, I would go in clubs with music much higher than normal level and I wouldn't have any hearing pain or tinnitus sound after it.
After doing AM5 around stage 4 or 5 I started to get tinnitus with pain from just from people speaking if it's a bit loud, I always listened to the masked track during that time. Also the sound level was quite low as my brother couldn't hear it in the next room, certainly not rock concert level.

So according to you it made my tinnitus more obvious, even if it was the case that would still make your subliminal the culprit especially since tinnitus is a subjective problems. Probably everyone can remember an experience when they heard a very loud noise and their hears hurt a little bit, in wars video games you can see that all the time when a grenade explode near the player, to make it realistic the player hear this hissing sound for about 5 seconds or so. Tinnitus is exactly that but it doesn't stop.
In that grenade example would you say if a guy experience that in real life and he got tinnitus afterward from it, would say that grenade wasn't the cause of the tinnitus but that it just made it more obvious to him that he tinnitus before. I could have others example like with headache, if you don't notice you have an headache, then you don't have any headache as it's subjective, same with tinnitus, if you don't notice it then you don't have it.

Quote:because they are just like any other sound.

I agree with you on that. There is a thing written on headset sometimes, like don't listen for long period of time as it may damage your hearing.
It can be normal sound from speaker, it still seems to damage the hearing after long period of times. And to me it's exactly what I experience if I watch movies all day or series or youtube or music all day without stopping my tinnitus gets stronger. And if I use headset it worsen the effects.
The sound doesn't need to be special, hearing your subs more than 8 hours a day is probably not a good thing for anyone long term wise.

Human ears are designed to be used for very long periods of time. Your whole life, in fact. That warning on the sides of headphones isn't about using them for long periods of time, it's about using them at high volumes for too long. You can listen to waves crashing at the beach for a whole life, if you live at the beach, and never have tinnitus in response. You can listen to jungle sounds under the same circumstances, and same deal. But somehow, listening to a masked subliminal is supposed to be triggering tinnitus because of the masking track being played at reasonable volume? I'm going to have to say that's not possible.

The only way I can think of that you could possibly have tinnitus in direct response to the subliminal under the conditions you describe, is if it is some sort of previously unrealized resistance tactic. I don't question that you experienced it, but I do question what caused it, and I guarantee that the masking tracks I use, played at reasonable volumes, can't do that. I can also guarantee you that the subliminalized audio itself can't do that for the very same reason on a masked track. Leaving us with the only possible explanation being some sort of subconscious response to the subliminal messages. And honestly, I can't see how that is possible either... although I do not know what the cause(s) of tinnitus are (aside from overvolume of audio). So that seems a possible explanation, but I have a significantly hard time following how that is possible even as a resistance tactic unless it is an extremely rare resistance tactic that results from the subconscious trying to get you to stop listening. Otherwise we'd have figured out that it's a resistance tactic already.

Well you are the expert, but maybe it's inevitable to take away the sound of "the script being played up" in one's mind?

It isn't that annoying for me, not like the high pitch sound you get the day after a loud concert, but lower and more gentle.

It also feels like when something is worked on, the pitch become more distinct.

I am pretty much with Greenduck here. I don't even think this is "real" tinnitus but the side effect of processing the script. I can't tell the reason, but maybe some personality types, maybe these ones who are more easily overwhelmed by a huge amount of information hear it es some sort of echo of processing the script, I don't know. And I also don't perceive it as that loud so it doesn't bother me at all.

I don't agree with you at all on that, my experience has been very different from what you describe here.

First your comparison to natural sound isn't appropriate to me, what I listen to isn't natural sound. It's reproduced natural sound from a speaker, which is totally different for me.
Sound from nature, waves, or rain sounds are way more loud than your subliminal that I play during the night or the video I watch on internet.
But those naturals sounds doesn't trigger any fatigue or tinnitus but sounds produce from the speaker, headphone or any sound device do produce tinnitus for me, and the longer I use the stronger the effect.
Yesterday I played 8 hours of hypnosis track while I sleep, I do notice that my tinnitus is slightly stronger this morning.

One can do the same comparison with headphone, the volume limit that is said to produce damage is way lower than the sound of waves at the beach at least to me.

Resistance, no comment on that.
