BinauralPlayer is a multimedia player that integrates traditional audio and video playback with tools for generating binaural beats and other brainwave-based audio signals.
Written in C++ using the Qt framework, the application enables users to play common media formats while also producing customizable audio tones designed for relaxation, meditation, concentration, or sleep. The software combines a conventional media player interface with a real-time tone generator capable of producing different waveform types and adjustable frequencies.
This is free and open source software.
