I presently don’t have the patience to search the forum and go through various threads related to making subliminals with audacity.
I made an audio subliminal with audacity, this is to help me learn multiplication and division tables, what I did was I recorded myself reading the multiplication tables and division tables and I opened this file in audacity, I imported other masking sound, and I reduced the volume of my recording until it was barely audible. I then exported this as wave file and played it on repeat while sleeping till I woke up. But I didn’t learn the multiplication and division tables.
I wonder if I’m doing anything wrong. Can anyone tell me the various types of audio subliminals and how I can make them with audacity?
I know by experience that either these types of audio subliminals work or emf waves can be used to condition mind. Asking physicists about emf waves to condition mind, they said it is impossible, so I’m back to audio subliminals.
Unlike many other processes and techniques, this one comes with tools to get spoken messages in and back out of modulation as a check on the quality of the work. It’s not single-ended—encrypt a message and hope for the best.
The idea is not to destroy the quality of the voice by masking or covering it up. It’s to encrypt the messages cleanly and clearly so the subconscious mind can perceive it and derive meaning without the daytime, talking on the phone, sweeping the floor mind being aware there’s anything going on.
I suppose this is the modern-day version of becoming aware of a wild animal trying to eat you before your conscious mind figures out the danger. It can save your life.
However, messages do tend toward “Multiplication Tables Good,” not “Seven Times Eight is Fifty-Six.” Knowing your times tables is not going to save your life in the bush. Your goals may have outstripped the process.
I think by emf waves, I meant wireless sources not something attached to or placed inside the body.
Even if I avoid doing this while sleeping, some other person may not. Some of the behaviour I notice in myself seem to be result of subliminal conditioning, I’m unable to identify if the source is audio or video or both. It seems to be manifesting when I wake up after a nights sleep, so I’m suspecting it is happening during sleep through audio subliminals.

Microwave ovens were designed after the supposed DEW Line microwave technician who stood in front of a powerful radio antenna and, while he was unaffected, the chocolate bar in his pocket melted. It was determined that standing in front of a multi-story tall radio antenna was probably not the best idea.
I have attended a number of retirement parties for broadcast technicians who spent years in direct exposure to thousands of watts of radio energy, with no effect at all.
Somewhere I have a picture of a technician in front of one of the radio towers of WRC holding a lighted fluorescent tube. Not connected to anything, just lighting up on its own. No affect to the technician.
So while I can put up a terrific explanation of sub-audible sounds based on human history, I can’t do nearly so well for radio waves. Very few radio transmitters in the bush.
Technology always progresses, maybe by now, DEW engineers have developed something to condition mind with emf waves. If I compare EMF waves to sound waves, the emf waves which lit up the bulb would be like loud noise at ultrasound, humans can’t hear but it is still there, the medium can be adjusted to make it influence human behaviour, the same thing might happen with emf waves.
I’m very interested in knowing more about sub-audible sounds, if you have experience with them, I’d like to learn about it.
Stimulating the sleeping brain with new information likely disrupts the functions of sleep
I think I would be worried about that, although that might be the goal. You don’t need to clean up, solidify, and organize the events of the past day. We’re going to give you New and Improved information to deal with. Although again, I’m not sure “Seven Times Eight is Fifty-Six” is a valid substitution for warm feelings about the neighbor’s cat. Your goals and form may not be the best match.
Messing with sleep functions is dangerous. That’s a torture tool.
I think you might be able to force this to work if you used “Seven Times Eight is Fifty-Six” alone, by itself, repeatedly, for several nights. Then go on to “Seven Times Nine is Sixty-Three” for several nights. You’re competing with one, two, and three word messages: “DANGER RUN!” and “CAT FUZZY.”
Don’t leave out “Nine Times Seven is Sixty-Three.” That’s valid, as well. I am reminded of a completely stupid boating joke. I only know how to tie a bowline knot one way, so if I have to tie one on the left side of the boat, I have to get out of the boat, tie it, and then get back in. Not the most useful talent.
Are you following somebody’s published process for this or are you extrapolating? I don’t think I’ve ever heard of someone trying to do what you’re doing.
My goal is not to substitute any warm feelings I might have about any cat. At present I’m trying to confirm if audio subliminals work and I thought learning multiplication tables might be used to test it.
I’ll eventually use the effective subliminal technique decondition my mind which I think is happening during my sleep through some form of effective audio subliminal. In my reply to your earlier post, I asked you to share your knowledge about sub-audible sounds, will you be sharing it? Why hasn’t my post shown up on this thread?
I’m very interested in knowing more about sub-audible sounds
Sure, but that’s even less useful than the single sideband stuff.
Through a quirk of road construction, metrobusses and large lorries produce a 1.8 Magnitude earthquake in my house when they go by. I’ve learned to distinguish the floor and wall movement from a real earthquake pretty well, all in sub-audible right-brain impressions. I don’t say to myself: “Oh, there goes the 302 bus.”
All sub-audible. Have you seen that video of a roomful of cats suddenly going nutso several seconds before an earthquake? That’s the effect.
All using words like “I can sense it,” or “I can feel it,” not “I can hear it.” Again from history, this is sensing the large animal who wants to eat you by sensing tiny changes in the environment.
I don’t know how you’re going to get “Seven Times Nine is Sixty Three” into that.
Messing with subaudible/sub-sonic works is totally possible in Audacity. Audacity will edit sounds way below human hearing, but you can’t get any of it out of Audacity and into the real world with most consumer sound cards.
A good chunk of that single sideband discussion is the gymnastics you have to go through to select the right digital sampling rate and bit depth so your soundcard doesn’t destroy the work. One of our goals is to be able to produce the effect and also reverse it on command. None of this ‘maybe it works and maybe it doesn’t’ stuff.
The instant you start talking about effects with no tests, no second pathway sensing, or no bidirectional reversing, you leave the engineers in the dust.
Did you try the plugin? Again, I can’t emphasize this enough, your message has to be right-brain impressionistic and simple. Not memorizing log tables.
Posts have to be read by a forum elf before they become visible. We get a lot of spam. No, I’m not interested in buying adult entertainment from Russia.
Yes, I’ve tried the plug-in you mentioned and the resulting audio showed small blobs on the spectrograph, when I played it, it was barely audible with high pitched squeaks, when I used frequency analysis on the resultant file, the audio portion only occupied 14KHz to 20KHz, even though I selected 14KHz as the carrier frequency.
Has my sound card produced the correct output, is the plugin supposed to create audio which is high pitched and sound like squeaks but are barely audible? It wasn’t intelligible. Would it be intelligible to the subconscious mind? How can I find out if my sound card is capable of producing the required output. Can you tell me what kind of sound card I’d need? I have Creative USB sound card, should it be fine?
No. My thing is getting you published after you read an audiobook and knowing the basic engineering. I have a pretty good idea how to “Microphone.” Will you be publishing an audiobook later? I’m here for you.
This is where the Forum Format can run into troubles. This isn’t a help desk. A forum is users helping each other. So we can wait for other forum elves to unscramble this—the people who wrote the tool comes to mind—or other posters who have the same troubles you do and have ideas how to solve your problems from their experiences.
As I have written some of the Nyquist code / plug-ins related to “hidden messages”, I should probably chip in at this point.
For me, “silent subliminals” are a curious form of steganography (hidden messages). Just like children frequently have fun inventing “code writing”, so other forms of steganography can be fun and intriguing to play with (a curious example by Aphex Twin: Hey, Who's That Face in My Song? | WIRED).
However, I also tend to agree with Wikipedia that “subliminal messaging” has little or no effect.
A much more effective way to remember something is through repetition - sometimes called “learning by rote”.
Learning by rote is not good for developing understanding, but it is still considered one of the most effective ways to memorize and recall basic facts.
Sub-sonic frequencies are not very suitable for carrying messages. In simple terms, a 1 Hz frequency carries 1 piece of information per second, so it will take a long time to transmit a meaningful message. The higher the carrier frequency, the more information it can carry per second - which is why optical broadband networks run at extremely high speeds.
About the simplest way to embed a “hidden message” in audio, is to modulate a high frequency carrier tone.
In it’s simplest form, this can be done by applying this code to a mono track via the Nyquist Prompt effect:
;version 4
(mult (hzosc 14000) *track*)
After applying that code to a mono voice recording, the sound becomes a high pitched squeak / swishing sound.
To decode the track, apply the same code again.
For a more sophisticated version, and a long discussion about “silent subliminals”, read this topic: Silent Subliminals [solved?]
I may publish an audiobook after I have confirmed to myself that audio subliminals work. If I have no such proof and I make an audiobook, it would be like cheating the buyers of the audiobook. So now I’m in the testing phase.
I have to disagree with Wikipedia, I have actual experience it works, I think subliminal messages have to be tailored to each individual, each person’s hearing profile is unique, subliminal messages become effective, when they are made taking into a person’s hearing profile and their mental world. Like for example, you might have two friends, two friends have their own separate houses, one friend has a door on the east side, other friend has a door on the west side, if you go to the friends house which has a door on the west side, but you try to enter from east side, you’ll keep hitting into a wall, the same thing happens with subliminal messages, there are some general subliminal messages which might work on every individual but once you want to take it up, you really have to pay attention to the person’s mental world(their past, present, values and ambitions, etc), their visual acuity, hearing profile.
That was my reasoning behind recording myself say multiplication table and playing it on repeat while I slept. But I couldn’t learn it, there was a masking noise, maybe because it wasn’t effective.
So is the correct output after applying the subliminal filter to a track is high pitched squeaking noise? Decoding the track using a code you mentioned in the other thread didn’t really recover my voice.
I have seen the thread before actually registering here, it was actually get help for it, I joined this forum, there were some posts on that thread which talked about frequency modulation, amplitude modulation, etc, do I have to use those too, to make an effective subliminal?
I can tell you some form of hypnosis and conditioning is going during I sleep but it isn’t similar to hypnopompic. I suspect a high-pitched noise is embedded subliminal content and it is repetitive which is conditioning my mind, and sometimes hypnosis is also being practice through that.
You said that multiple times now. You think there’s someone attacking you in your sleep and embedding messages? The goal is to sort which method they’re using? Do you sleep in an environment where that’s possible?
A first pass at discovering this might be record the area around your head with your phone and the VoiceMemo app or equivalent. If the intruder is within hearing frequency range, including that single sideband thing, something should appear on the recording.
Also see: some apps to discover if you snore at night. It’s their job to record the area around your head.
In the case of Apple, a much better app would be the MusicMemo download. That one has no automatic processing or noise reduction. It records whatever is there, music or otherwise.
