Notes:
(1) The Sirius includes programs created by Dr. Hans Bittner,
based upon his research at the University of Essen. Proteus includes
updated versions of those, plus many of the highly acclaimed programs
from our MindLab series of machines.
In addition, all Proteus programs are stored in "flash" memory,
so you can replace any or all of them as you see fit--a total of
2,000 segments altogether. Version 1.2 supports 100 programs total,
while Version 1.6 supports 199 programs in two banks.
(2) We are committed to adding new features to Proteus--always
for free--you just download them from our website to your PC, then
into Proteus. You'll never need to buy a new mind machine!
(3) This program is different every time you run it.
(4) You can set your own light/sound pulse rate in real time.
(5) Exclusive! Proteus can control two different colors simultaneously,
each with its own brightness and frequency settings. Over 250 color
combinations produce a startling array of visuals and the broadest
range of mood shifts of any light/sound technology on the market.
(Patent pending.)
(6) Proteus includes a serial connect cable with a DB9 connector
so you can use any Windows 98+ PC to create, edit, form session
libraries and download them into Proteus. The always-free software
upgrades will regularly add new features (coming soon are: independent
control of the two color channels; dual binaural beats; biofeedback
control of light/sound parameters; realtime segment playback while
editing, more).
(7) Binaural beats are produced by playing two sine waves at slightly
different frequencies in stereo headphones--an additional entrainment
feature.
(8) AudioStrobe is a technique which embeds light control signals
on compact discs (more than 30 titles are available). Both systems
include decoders, but Proteus is the only one with fully active
control circuity--for crisper, perfectly synchronized lights and
audio program.
(9) ColorPulse converts the beat of music into pulsing light patterns,
while MicroPulse does the same thing with the built-in Sirius microphone.
Only available on the Sirius.
(10) BioConnect allows such parameters as pulse rate, color brightness,
binaural beat frequency, etc. to be controlled via biofeedback
(such as ThoughtStream). The most powerful way to experience light
and sound! Available January 2002.
(11) The range of light/sound pulse rates available. Proteus has
the broadest range available anywhere on the market today.
