Mind Machines

Devices that use pulsing rhythmic sound and flashing light in synchrony in order to modulate the frequency of the user’s brainwaves. A Mind Machine features programs that can induce deep states of relaxation, concentration, even altered states of consciousness similar to psychedelics.

Mind Machines are perfect for regulating sleep cycles. Remember to not use the machines too often on the same day as it can strain your eyes and of course, don’t use them if you are light sensitive or have any afflictions related to pulsing lights, like epilepsy. Try using them every evening if you want to relax before bed. After you’re done with everything and are getting ready for sleep.
From all the tests we performed on the Kasina the battery seems to last for about 30 medium length sessions. Kasina is known for it's long battery life - but it really depends on what you play, the length of the session and the intensity of the light.
The Kasina’s battery makes this portable Mind System the perfect travel companion - as you can take it with you on a trip without having to worry about charging it.
As for the Limina mind machine, the battery life depends on the AA batteries you have for it, with similar power spending. If you're out of juice, simply switch the batteries with new ones or recharge any AA rechargeable batteries and you're ready to go.
The most obvious difference is the price, Limina being more cost efficient. Limina only requires a couple of AA batteries(not included) in order to work. The display of the devices also differs, the Limina has a monochrome LCD while the Kasina features a Color LCD.
Limina has a fixed internal memory, with plenty of space for you to add new sessions, but does not feature a built in MP3/WAV player, which means that added sessions must be encoded as KSB files.
Limina plays the AudioStrobe and SpectraStrobe encoded files by connecting your AUX patch cable to the jack of your phone. For flawless signal we recommend using the USB - PC cable.
You can use the Mind Machines any time you like. If you want to relax and sleep well, choose from the low frequency sessions like Night Voyage just before going to bed. If you want to be more active or concentrate, choose something like Accelerate or the sessions meant to sharpen your focus. Read the included manual that describes what each session is generally geared for and what kind of mood they aim to instill.
The Kasina and Limina have regular jacks for headsets so pretty much anything will work. The packs come with their own set of earbuds but it’s not mandatory that you only use them.
The Kasina and Limina each come with their own set of glasses but they are interchangeable. The DeepVision GanzFrames ™ are made to work for both. Be gentle with the wires, don’t pull on them and store the glasses appropriately and they will last for a long time.
Do NOT open your eyes with the normal glasses the Mind Machines come with. Always keep your eyes closed to avoid straining them. The only frames meant to allow you to open your eyes during a session are the DeepVision GanzFrames™.
