JAKE'S EHPRA 2.0

[robstar]

thank you very much

I learnt today from a sound engineer that NO laptops can play 20KHZ silent subs so that is where I believe I have lost out on - my mac book pro was used when it shouldn't have.

I will be using my Audio engine now to play silent only - and this will be at night at 50% as per shannons advice and rather than 5hours I'm going to just try and get a good nights worth this way.

During the day if I can I will play a masked track at 50% volume on whatever device I have which may be my phone or laptop.

Either way my primary mode of listening will now be the audio engine for ultra silent and anything else for masked.

headphones when i had used them did give me the dreams I recall so perhaps its time I tried to incorporate that into my regime, which isn't possible unless I take 1 hour out of my day to just listen and relax.

My evenings tend to be used for listening or watching some form of media (music or movie) so masked always gets in the way and leads to anxiety of whether I'm getting the full effect thus for me masked can only be used if I'm not trying to listen or watch anything else during this time.

what do you all think? thanks

Shannon has said multiple times that masked can be run on the same headphones/speakers that you are playing media on as long as you can hear the masked. I do it all the time. Don't play it too loud (can't hear the talking in a movie), don't play it too quiet (can't hear the masked).
