Honest notes

what this is, and what it is not
On the frequencies

Pitch assignments such as Om ≈ 136.1 Hz and the chakra note-ladder are 20th-century conventions (Hans Cousto's "Cosmic Octave" and modern yoga practice), not ancient doctrine. The syllables themselves, however, are centuries to millennia old.

On the license

Everything here is synthesized with the Web Audio API in real time. There are no recordings and nothing to attribute. Treat this file as CC0 — copy, remix, and share it freely.

On practice

These traditions intended the syllables to be produced by your own voice and breath. Consider the drones an accompaniment to hum along with, not a replacement.

Questions listeners ask

tap to open
What am I hearing — are these real recordings of chants?SoundA1

No. There are no recordings and no samples. Every sound is synthesized live in your browser with the Web Audio API — vowel-formant drones shaped to each syllable. That is why the whole player is free of any license: treat it as CC0, copy and share it freely.

Is Om really 136.1 Hz?HonestyA1

That pitch is a 20th-century convention — Hans Cousto’s “Cosmic Octave” earth-year tone, adopted by modern yoga practice. It is not ancient doctrine. The syllables themselves, however, are centuries to millennia old.

Which tradition do these sounds belong to?ApproachA1

Five families sit side by side: Hindu and yogic seed mantras, Buddhist syllables, the Abrahamic Amen, Hū and Kyrie, Taoist healing breaths, and steppe overtone drones. Each is an equal carrier of the same human practice — offered as study, never ranked, never preached.

How do I use the player?UseA2
  • Tap any syllable card to sound it; tap again to stop it.
  • Layer several cards to build a drone.
  • Volume sets loudness; Space sets the reverb.
  • Tap the breathing mandala — or the Silence card — to fade everything to stillness.
Should I chant along, or just listen?PracticeA1

Chant along. Every one of these traditions intended the syllables to be produced by your own voice and breath. The drones are an accompaniment to hum with, not a replacement for your own sound.

Why does nothing play until I tap something?BrowserA1

Browsers require a user gesture before any page may make sound. The first card you tap wakes the audio engine; after that, everything responds instantly.
