Meditator Posted March 22, 2015 Im turning 18 on April 4th. I put it to my mum that i wanted a mind machine and now were getting one.If you go on ebay or google images and search "MicroBeatMini" youll see the model ive bought.Has anyone else ever had any experience with it? First time hearing about these devices?Essentially its a Ganzfeld device. Dont know what that is? Quickly go look up "Ganzfeld experiment" on youtube or google.The device essentially flashes coloured LED lights before your eyes and the music is brainwave entrainment type sounds (Binaural beats and isochronic tones). And after watching and listening to this device for a while you will literally start Hallucinating!Ive made one of these devices myself before and had hallucinations both visual and auditory. I saw Flashes of lightning with sound!Some people have full blown out of body experiences with these devices.At 200 dollars its definitely an investment, but to me its totally worth it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThunderIdeal Posted March 22, 2015 What does it do if you're already hallucinating? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Meditator Posted March 22, 2015 If youre already schizophrenic or on a hallucinogen its just that much more intense. Its actually usually overwhelming i hear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You've got a pretty cool mum You wouldn't wanna suffer from epilepsy hey. I think that sort of light flashing sets it off, lol. I look forward to hearing about your experiences.

watertrade Posted March 22, 2015 a friend of mine has a similar, earlier device like that . we know it as the 'light and sound machine. ' I have spent ages with that thing pulsing away inside my head. my friend ( you know who you are ;) ) has stopped using it while under the influence as he thought the assisted visions were persisting into normal life a bit more than comfortable. be careful.! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThunderIdeal Posted March 22, 2015 i asked out of curiosity and to try to be funny, and because i was pretty sure meditator tried it with acid first, without acid second. but apart from some novelty, as if chemical induced visions need any augmentation. the capacity for perception is the real bottleneck, but that bottleneck can arguably be altered by all kinds of activities, including time with brainwave generators. so yeah, i'm sorry for immediately connecting the two. it's cool how it just becomes part of your head, because headphones and a laptop isn't the most immersive method.

Meditator Posted March 23, 2015 Once i get the device in the mail ill straight away open it, charge it and write an experience report on this thread. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bert&Ernie Posted March 24, 2015 Awesome idea man! ive always wanted to use one of these... Didn't they use to do stuff like that in america in the 60's? with lsd and random test subjects..... kinda scary really hahaBut i feel like maybe a sensory deprivation tank would be better? if not more expensive but probably worth it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Meditator Posted March 24, 2015 So I just got done using my microbeatmini for the first time.Some experiences i had were that of changing vivid colours. Alteration of consciousness. Relaxation. A sense of delight.Changing the colours of light the glasses were flashing directly affected the alteration of my consciousness. Red was very strong.Im probably going to use this thing everyday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-RC- Posted March 25, 2015 I've had a good mate give me a run on his 'mind modulator' (I think that's what it was called) in an altered state. Old school headset with glasses and a tape player I think. It was actually a closed eye device, and the sound changes correlated with very specific visual changes. Very cool, a little unsettling, and highly psychedelic. First time users exercise caution when tripping is combined with balls. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Meditator Posted March 25, 2015 That sounds similar to my device, minus the tape player. You gotta play it through an iphone or cd player. Some of the specific changes it makes with the music is seriously psychedelic.You gotta close your eyes with mine as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
