Beta Blocker radios are designed as a meditational aid and normally do not produce sound. They contain a crystal radio circuit with a germanium diode and few other parts. The radio as it comes from Mr Gold is pre-tuned to assist certain brain frequencies, and is not meant to be hacked…

However, I soldered in an audio connector and ran it to my computer. I used real-time DSP (Digital Signal Processing) with Audio Hijack to produce the sounds you hear continuously in real time, without post-processing. The AuPitch control was used to produce the Worm-Hole Transporter effects in real time.

The pitch seems to control the apparent “altitude’ felt by a listener. Higher pitch seems “up”. Lower pitch seems “down”. Constant pitch yields a steady altitude, whether higher or lower.

More importantly, an upward CHANGE of pitch seems to produce the sensation of acceleration. (a downward pitch change produces somewhat dizzying deceleration!)

This sensing of acceleration is an indicator that one is moving from “one” location to “another” location, which is part of the fun of exploring Parallel Worlds!

The SongBook® AM/FM alarm clock travel radio makes it easy to bring high-fidelity sound with you, wherever you go. “Ideal for both beach and beach house, this warm-sounding, rubber-cased, splash-proof hybrid functions as an alarm clock, AM/FM radio, and iPod speaker. Plug in the book-size device at night, and by morning its six rechargeable AAs will have enough juice to run all day.” (Men’s Journal)

The SongBook radio easily fits in a briefcase. The user-friendly panel offers five station preset buttons, a backlit LCD, and digital alarm and sleep functions. It can run on either an external power supply or six AA batteries; it even recharges NiMH/NiCAD rechargeable batteries* while plugged in. The SongBook radio’s weather-resistant, rubberized coating* comes in a wide range of colors. But, like all Tivoli Audio® products, the operative word is audio. “The SongBook is one amazing portable clock radio. As a matter of fact, it’s an amazing radio period. I’ve even plugged it into my home hi-fi system and used it as an FM tuner. It sounds that good.” (MSNBC)

As with all Tivoli Audio products, the SongBook AM/FM Travel Radio is compatible with iPod and other players. Take the music with you, wherever you go.

An external FM antenna and external AC power supply are included. One year warranty. Offered in your choice of seven colors.
