Notched Therapy for Tinnitus

I'm a long time sufferer of tinnitus - even as I write this it rings away in my head. I found research performed in the last few years that tells of a study performed with tinnitus sufferers and "notched music therapy".

Often the sites that would help create notched music required some payment (that I personally didn't find was justified). Notched music can also be created using Audacity, but I knew with the new WebAudio API it could be done in the browser. So this is my attempt.

Project Status

Currently the project is just a bit of the client side, which I've hosted, or you can try out on using a 5minfork of this repo (make sure to navigate to public directory).

However, I do intend to flesh out the server side so the app can freely provide:

  • Match and find the pitch of your tinnitus ✔
  • Play white noise with your pitch notched out ✔
  • Upload (via drag and drop) your own mp3 files and notch ✔
  • Recording of tinnitus pitch over time
  • Export white noise as wav (done in client side)
  • Export white noise as mp3 (done using round trip to server)
  • Upload a zip file of mp3 files to notch
  • Export (as a zip or individual files) of notched mp3 files (also requires trip to server)

More details to come as I continue to develop this.
