Description

PhantomLimb is a little program to generate tones, and test your discrimination of frequency deltas. I wrote it for a friend of mine who is suffering from tinnitus ('ringing in the ears') due to an ear infection. (the infection destroyed some nerve cells in his inner ear, and the lack of signals from the destroyed nerve cells is what causes the ringing--similar to the 'phantom limb' sensations experienced by amputees. Hence the name of this program) By practicing discriminating between the sound of the tinnitus and 'nearby' sounds, he hopes to be able to train his brain to discriminate between the 'phantom' sound and other, real sounds.

Install

Channel stable v1-5

This app is curated in HaikuPorts. Install it from there, it is already available in HaikuDepot.

pkgman install phantomlimb

Download version 1-5 (x86_64) hpkg

Careful: the file comes from HaikuPorts' own server, but installing it by hand is not the way in. It is pkgman that resolves the dependencies an .hpkg does not carry with it, and a package installed on its own may simply not run. Use the pkgman command above, unless you know exactly why you want the file.
