Living Engine

RawWave 2.0 composes sound in real time on your device — four layers evolving continuously. No loops, no account, no server. Pick a mode, wear your headphones, listen for a minute.

Idle — press start
Session length

Stereo headphones recommended — the binaural beat and spatial orbit rely on L/R separation.

Queue

Add parts — they play one after another with an automatic hand-off. A shared wave plays until you stop it, so it closes the sequence.

Signal

Live mix

The scene sets the balance — you set the level. Changes apply instantly.

Space

HRTF binaural panning moves the beat and textures around your head.

Context

Mask the environmentoff

The microphone only measures the noise level — it records and sends nothing. The engine raises the noise floor to mask the surroundings.

Keep screen awakeoff

Asks the browser not to switch off the display during a session. Does nothing while nothing is playing — sleep mode stays battery-safe.

State

Optional — the engine reshapes the current scene around how you feel (levels, texture density, breathing). Nothing is stored.

Fade out

Your sound

No sessions yet — your history, ratings and tuning will appear here.

Rate at least 5 sessions to unlock your personal sound signature.

Your profile (sessions, ratings, tuning) lives only in this browser — no account, no server. Export it as a file to keep a backup or move it to another device.

Preset waves

Hand-tuned recipes from the rawwave lab. Play, save or share — each one is a full sound in a link. Parameter values are first-guess until the listening test — tell us what to nudge.

Science — honestly

Every claim gets an evidence level. What works, what doesn't, and what is still experimental.

Proof of concept — engine, calibration, shareable waves and evidence layer so far. The full 2.0 adds wearable context. Nothing leaves your device. Space — start/stop.
