poBAS

After recently discovering that I was neurodivergent I have been focused on learning to regulate my nervous system. So I took my musical knowledge and my programming knowledge to create poBAS. I designed these Bilateral Ambient Soundscapes to help regulate my nervous system. The long and repetitive nature of the soundscapes help calm me by providing a predictable and stimulating auditory environment. I listen using noise-cancelling headphones at a low volume to keep it stimulating but not overstimulating. That helps keep my mind occupied when I am trying to do things such as relax, focus, think, or sleep. Those are all times when my mind tends to race making all of those things more difficult for me. The base app provides 8 soundscapes that you can loop so you can see if it is something that could help you as well. It also includes 25 second previews for the ot her 42 soundscapes that are included in the full version. Full version description: poBAS provides seamlessly looping ambient soundscapes that you can make your own. Every soundscape begins with a simple, generic name so you can rename it however you like, creating a personal library that feels familiar and meaningful to you. You can organize your library using customizable filters. Use the included Calm, Focus, Recovery, and Rest filters, assign any combination of them to each soundscape, create entirely new filters, or edit the existing ones to match the way you think and listen. There are two ways to listen: **Choose Destination** lets you select a single soundscape and loop it continuously for a session of your chosen length. **Plan Journey** creates a guided listening session by randomly selecting soundscapes tagged with the Filter you choose. Select a filter, choose your session length, and decide how long each soundscape should play before poBAS transitions to another randomly selected matching soundscape. *** Features *** • Bilateral ambient soundscapes • Seamlessly looping audio • Background mode • Rename every soundscape • Customizable Filters • Choose Destination mode • Plan Journey mode • Session timer (5 minutes to 12 hours) • Multiple app themes • Minimal, distraction-free interface poBAS, short for **Bilateral Ambient Soundscapes**, is created by Placid Octopus Studios, with music by Placid Octopus.
