Only useful if we want to play something different out of left and right channels.
Is stereo the same as having 2 mono channels? How can we define as left or right in making a WAV?
The difference seems to be that a stereo track has 2 or more channels, which can be different between them, and the ears & brain merge them into one sound. Whereas having 2 mono channels often means they're the same. trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/AudioChannelManipulation to assign as left or right. However, there is no point in doing that as they're the same data. If there's only one single channel, it's played out of all available speakers. Would text to speech as a subliminal be useful for stereo? Or you could overlap as a second channel the subliminal audio. Do you think that would be useful to have your text read with text to speech as subliminal? Might not work with Unicode though.

Yes, it would be useful for stereo. But you could also overlap it as a second channel. Yes, TTS is useful for subliminals. All the TTS engines I've seen (with later manual merge to the audio) work with unicode. |

So if the character is in sanskrit, the TTS will read the actual sanskrit word? Same with Chinese?

In that case the TTS would need to support those languages, or you can use transliterated writing which may have greater support. |

You can try both and see which is stronger. 0% smoothing is better if you are ok with the pulses sound, or sounding like data being transferred. That retains more of the original information.
Even that uses a sine wave pattern so it sounds good. I remember you saying that if there's pulses it's no good.
Do 99% and 100% smoothing feel powerful? |

Do 99% and 100% smoothing feel powerful? 99 and 100% are indistinguishable from one another.
528Hz feels pretty good. I like it in the heart.
