Hi I’m interested in trying to tame the reactive aspect of tinnitus nothing else. I have noise induced hyperacusis & tinnitus. Did you find the clomipramine drug softened or stopped the reactivity of your Tinnitus? Thanks

Hi Sarah I’m in London and keen to know more about the UCL tinnitus trial Nick47 mentioned-you say you signed up to it can you share the details with me please? Thanks

Yes, pink noise has a lower volume of the high frequencies than white noise, and brown noise is lower still.

The difference between white, pink, brown noise etc is the volume level of the all the individual frequencies present in the particular noise type (white, pink, brown etc). White noise is the harshest of the 3 due to the higher frequency volume levels. Brown noise has the same frequencies...

Welcome, Michael's advice echos my own thoughts on you particular situation - I too have noise induced tinnitus from music. I am still getting to grips with how to stop my tinnitus spiking and I have found that not listening to music over speakers or earphones helps keep it under control. My...

Just out of interest have any of you in this thread who are dealing with noise induced reactive tinnitus & hyperacusis ever use a pink or white noise in ear generator. If so did it help?

Hi Sean, Don’t know it this helps but I have just tried an equaliser app “Denon Audio” which is available for android and apple platform. It’s allows you to make custom EQ curves for playback of audio on a phone or tablet. I have tried it and using the 10 band preset as a starting points it’s...

I got mine nice and simple - playing guitar with a young band in a rehearsal studio who were going at full tilt for hours. I hadn't been in a rehearsal studio for 10 years previous to that had forgotten how loud it can get. I was unprepared and my ears were regretfully unprotected. I have to say...

Totally agree! Loud music caused my tinnitus and seems to make it spike so I’m wary of it. I am thinking about leaving music alone for a extended period & see how I go much as that idea frustrates. Thanks for being so open, I don’t know any other musicians in this predicament your similar...

Meh

Hi thanks all this is helpful you guys are fighting the same workarounds with trying to listen to music again that I am. I have resorted to turning my speakers side on pointing towards the acoustic panels in my studio so I don’t get the tweeter beaming directly into my bad ear. Also I think...

Hi Sean, just seen your reply thanks v much for staring this thread and the reply - did the low pass filter suggestion help with your reactivity?

Thanks for the response - my spike will come on after about 30 mins to an hour of listening to music. If I carry on and continue listening to music in a spike the spike duration can last for a week or more. My speakers are a pair of pro ac DB1 studio monitors I have been using those for the...

Hi it does not seem to matter what speakers I use. Even listening to music at low volume 65-70db will set it off. Due to my work I have to listen for extended periods of time throughout the day. Music in any environment is problematic unless it’s really quiet. Don’t fully understand why but it...

So John how did you achieve that please?

Hi Sean, Just wondering where you are at with the tinnitus and listen to music over speakers spikes? I’m a musician 9 months into noise induced tinnitus with hyperacusis and like you I find any music is now a trigger for a T spike. My own feeling is that most popular music covers a broadband...

Thanks so much for your quick replies it’s been very reassuring. I’ll see how I go tomorrow at the hospital. Thanks again

Hi I’m new suffering tinnitus and hyperacusis in left ear. It started 3 weeks ago after a band rehearsal. My day job is producing music for TV. After leaving work alone for over 2 weeks following the injury I did 3 hours evening mixing work at very low volume level over speakers a few nights...
