Use the slider to pick from 60 sounds and create a mix of around 8 sounds. The knob adjusts each sound's volume. Create a mix of sounds to sleep to, run the sound through your stereo or headphones and turn the volume up fairly high, turn out the lights and sleep. Click the "save" button to save or load mixes to one of 3 save spots. The "silence all" button kills all sounds currently playing. update 6/22/18: improved the volume adjust knob action, it was pretty terrible
My code, otherwise I'm using almost all "found" everything on this including sounds except for my old space heater (RIP) All my life I slept like the dead until I became ill and developed insomnia. My wife has tinnitus so I was already familiar with the benefits of sleeping to certain noises like things that make a white noise type sound. So I scoured the internet for sound sources and chopped them up into loops careful to avoid sound artifacts that make the looping stand out. Wow, it worked so well that I had trouble coding it, I kept passing out! Works on my cats too, I'd wake up with them all over me :D There is something cool about a Scratch project you get practical, everyday usage out of and I used this thing for years. With the update of Scratch to 3.0 there is now a tiny little audible hiccup \when loops restart but it is so slight that once you get a few sounds going at once the hiccups vanish. The default sound was modeled after a rainy summer night in Arkansas complete with Spring Peepers, crickets, and rain on a tin roof, one of my wife's favorites sleepy sounds. But there are all kinds of water noises, more creatures, all sorts of household appliances as well as a selection of noise generators. Wanna sleep on a high altitude flight cruising through a Arctic tunnel underwater while a didgeridoo plays softly next to a popping fireplace? I got you covered. Lets throw in some cat purrs. Nite!
