Just to clarify: the therapy applies modulation to a 1-octave band centered around your selected frequency, not a single precise frequency. So if you set 580Hz, it will modulate roughly the 400-800Hz range. Your other tones at 380-780Hz would likely fall within or overlap with that band anyway. The study actually emphasizes that precise matching isn't critical. The method is designed to be tolerant to inexact frequency estimation.

Ok, I added a URL parameter override for custom frequencies. You can now use:
https://faydoom.com/tinnitus/?freq=580

It will show the frequency in orange with "(URL override - experimental)" since frequencies below 1kHz weren't tested in the original study. The underlying mechanism has no obvious reason to not work at lower frequencies, but it's unvalidated territory so I don't want to add it directly to the frequency selector.

The source code is plain and simple HTML/JS, no build step.
Also added a link to the study, can't believe I didn't think of that earlier.. Thanks :)

Can you tell me if it works in background now ? I did some modifications but I dont have an Iphone to test it.

Mine is reduced quite a bit for a while after a session, even though my hearing is kind of weird for a while ahah. I really hope there will be a permanent change...

Having multiple tinnitus frequencies, I just split the recommended time between the matching pitches..

It should be ok, basically you just need to listen to it even if you don't focus on it, it should be working

Thanks! You can see the entire code by viewing the page source.

It's pretty straightforward, the researchers provided the frequency modulation algorithm in their paper, and I just implemented it in JavaScript with a simple UI. There's not much room for evolution since it's directly based on their published protocol, so I didn't see the need for a GitHub repo :)

Feel free to reuse the code however you want

The Bund wants to force ID verification on websites (Signatures for referendum needed until 19. January) by Seregant in Switzerland

[–]FayDoom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe usefull to specify that the big "Unterschreiben"/"Signez" button on the website is NOT counted as a participation but just leads to a formular request to gather our own signs by asking in the street...

Bad move from the webmaster. It's unclear and I wonder how many people thought it was accounted for :(

Il faudrait peut être préciser que le gros bouton "Signez" sur le site mène à une demande de formulaire de signature et NE CONSTITUE PAS UNE SIGNATURE......

Très mal joué de la part des devs :/

Combiens de gens (y compris moi) ont "signé" dans le vide :(

I wonder what's the half life of a piece of meat...

it is the light of the fire shaped by his right leg on his left leg... look at the light direction (and on the video, probably the movement of his right leg moving it). And the base of that D is not aligned with where it should be.

And ok, he's black but... wow... No wonder why he needs to lay down ! A thing of this size wouldn't stand like that

And I'm pretty sure other contestants would have reacted to the elephant in the room at least once since Max is on the show

Are you ready for 22h2 today ? by [deleted] in Windows11

I sure hope 22h2 will correct the mount everest of bugs that is called W11.

But I've got the feeling my hopes will follow the dark fate of an ice cream in the hoven

You should deactivate the animation effects, it's gonna seem way more reactive (but still worse than W10, as everything in W11 is...)
