How?
Digital audio sound-waves are passed through the algorithm. Phase information is analysed, replicated and adjusted to recreate the space and timing intricacies that would occur in the real world. With the changes made to the phases, ears receive the waves at different times making the brain piece together the sound, in tests this improved the perceived quality of the audio. This patented audio process creates brain activity in the areas of the brain that are scientifically accepted to control positivity and approach motivation.
