[Tutorial] Add surround estim to any video

[47dahc]

So you have been thinking about or possibly already diving into the realm of estim and would love to know how to create an estim audio file and then add it to a video as a surround channel so you can zap your junk in sync with a video. Well, I'm here to help you out.

I'm going to try my hand at laying out the process that I use that seems to have worked for myself and how I did Redlighter's Passion 2 video.

I'm assuming that the reader of this has basic computer knowledge and can navigate the internet, Win10 file system, and install programs. Not going to go into much detail with programs, just the required program preferences and steps I use.

This also requires the use of a second audio device such as a USB sound card and the use of Voicemeeter Banana which I will lay out in a following post. There are a lot of screenshots and steps and it seems very time consuming and daunting but rest assured, it really isn't. If I have all the files available, I can encode a video in less than 15 minutes depending on the length of the video. The hardest part is obtaining a completed funscript if that is the route used. Like anything else, the more you do it, the easier it is.

Ok, lets get to it.

1. Obtain a funscript or premade estim audio file

Spoiler: show

The first thing you will need is a funscript or a premade estim audio file for the video that you want to add surround estim to. This can be done by:

• Downloading a provided estim track from the creator of the video.

• Using other funscripts uploaded by users across numerous sites like EroScripts or RealTouchScripts.

• Scripting the video yourself using numerous programs available.

• If you d/l'd or already have an estim audio file, skip to step 3.

2. Create the estim audio file

Spoiler: show

Can't add estim to a video without the audio file. Once you have your desired funscript, this is how you convert it to phase modulated .mp3 audio.

• Navigate to the online funscript converter.

• The settings are up to you for your particular estim setup.

• The settings in the screenshot are what works for me for most funscripts.

• Choose your settings prior to your file.

3. D/L, install, and setup Audacity

Spoiler: show

Audacity is an open source audio editor. I use it to combine the video audio with the estim audio created in step 2.

• Install Audacity

• Once installed, open it and press "Ctrl-P" or, in the tool bar select Edit --> Preferences to open the "Preferences" window.

• Select "Import/Export" in the left pane and ensure that "Use Advanced Mixing Options" radial button is selected.

• Click in the area left of the waveform to select the entire track. You'll notice that the area will turn a light blue color when it is selected and the area behind the waveform that can be seen will turn white. If you need to, click in the area below the waveform to deselect and see the difference

Spoiler: show

Congrats, you just created your six channels needed for surround sound.

5. Export the combined surround audio file

Spoiler: show

• Press Ctrl-Shift-E or, in the menu bar, select File --> Export --> Export Audio

• Navigate to where you want to save the file

• In "Save as type" field, select "AC3 Files (FFmpeg)"

• In the next window, this is where you'll choose how many channels you want to export. Change the slider till it says "Output Channels: 6". Note: You will not get this window if "Use Advanced Mixing Options" wasn't set earlier.

Spoiler: show

Screenshot 2021-01-25 140400.jpg (43.97 KiB) Viewed 7305 times

• Select "OK" and it will start the export

Spoiler: show

Screenshot 2021-01-25 140436.jpg (13.37 KiB) Viewed 7305 times

• You can now exit Audacity

Congrats, you just created your surround estim audio file. Just a few more steps.

6. Multiplex the surround estim audio into the video.

Spoiler: show

To multiplex the video and estim audio together, I like to use MKVToolNix which is a Freeware multiplexing tool. It will only export to MKV format but, for the process we'll be using it for, it will not change any quality in the video. Not that I have noticed anyways. Anyways, lets get to multiplexing shall we.

• D/L and install MKVToolNix. The version at the time of this tutorial is 52.0.0.

• Open MKVToolNix.

• I don't remember changing any settings but you can browse them if you want by selecting "Ctrl-P"

Spoiler: show

• In the "Source files" section, right click and select "Add files"

Spoiler: show

Screenshot 2021-01-25 144453.jpg (51.71 KiB) Viewed 7305 times

• Navigate to your video and AC3 surround file that you created in step 5 above. I suggest having them in the same folder for ease of locating and adding them in one step.

• Highlight both and select "Open"

Spoiler: show

Screenshot 2021-01-25 144924.jpg (28.48 KiB) Viewed 7305 times

Kind of hard to see so I will concentrate on the red and green areas.

Spoiler: show

Screenshot 2021-01-25 145232.jpg (269.56 KiB) Viewed 7305 times

• In the lower area, "Tracks, chapters, and tags:", you should have and see the video file, the video audio track, and your surround audio track.

Spoiler: show

Screenshot 2021-01-25 151503.jpg (42.6 KiB) Viewed 7305 times

Each column should be fairly self-explanatory.

• If the track is checked under "Codec" column, it will be multiplexed.

• If it has the green check in the "Default track in output" column, it will be the audio playing when you start the video.

• Change the name of each track. To do this, highlight the audio track and you'll see the right hand "Properties" window become available. In the "Track name" field, type the name you want.

• Name all audio tracks to whatever you want. The 2 channel audio is the original audio and the 6 channel track(s) is your estim surround track(s)

Spoiler: show

Screenshot 2021-01-25 152520.jpg (42.4 KiB) Viewed 7305 times

• Choose a destination file and location and select the "Start multiplexing" button

Since it isn't re-encoding and only adding audio tracks, it's a fairly quick process depending on quantity of tracks and length of video. Think the longest I waited is 30 seconds.

Spoiler: show

Screenshot 2021-01-25 161103.jpg (28.94 KiB) Viewed 7305 times

When the status bar says 100%, you should have an MKV video file in your destination folder.

I have some videos that have multiple audio tracks for different funscript converter settings or d/l'd estim tracks and each one is added as a separate track. Just try and name them so you can tell what settings/tracks were used. You can see in the screenshot, I have a file from BoundSquirrel as one of the tracks. Each track will need to be created just as we did above in Audacity and exported to a separate surround file. In the example, I had 4 different files in the source files. The video file and 3 different surround audio track files.

Thanks to palvinolag, he uploaded a great video on Voicemeeter Banana in this topic

Just get it installed and follow his video.

I think that is it. I hope this helps in your quest to zap your junk. In all reality, when setup correctly, estim is addicting and some of the best orgasms aside from real sex that I have ever had.

Enjoy!!!

This is gold and the type of detailed instructions that I've been looking for! Thank you. I'll need to give this a shot once I have the chance because trying to sync videos to stim audio and also trying to seek around is difficult. This is awesome.

[puste]

Thanks for this detail description.
I have also try to make some estim files from funscript. But I can not fugure out why
Edging do nothing convert to the estim file.
There is just silence when edging ocurs.
Can any one tell why this is so. ?

Another possible route to sync Video with Estim file. Is to use my program CHPlayer V3.
https://github.com/puste1/CHPlayer
Then you do not have to fiddle around with Sorround sound settings etc.

Glad it helps. Took a lot of reading and trial and error to get it to work the way I wanted it to. Been happy with it and recently have been using Script Player to test out frequency combinations. I'm currently messing around with 777 and 1500. That's why I said the settings were the choice of the creator. Everybody has different trodes and setups and you gotta do your homework to figure out what works for you.

You're welcome. Edging sections usually don't unless the scripter programmed it into the funscript. Most funscripts will have a 0-100 position and during the edge sections, if the last signal was 0-100, the settings in the online converter will cause it to fade out. To get around this, you have to open the script in one of the tools and add that edge section using any up and down motion between 10 and 90. I think it's Liquid on EroScripts that does the best at this. He'll create a section in the script that goes 80-90, 70-80, 60-70, 50-60, and so on and back up again. It does a great edge cycle. Off the top of my head, I think it was Passion 2 that he did it on.

My experience with doing basically what you have detailed leads me to make one suggestion.

After you load each of the audio channels you will see the display as shown in the tutorial. Specifically the audio often goes to the top and bottom of the display range and is clipped. I always adjust the level lower so this distortion is reduced. If your audio does not reach the top and bottom you can skip this process.

I highlight each audio channel and for each I go to "Effects" and select "Amplify". You will probably see a negative amplification value shown as the suggested value. Use that value or make it 2 db, or whatever you like, larger in the negative direction and then apply the effect.
Do this to each channel.

[Ghingis]

The v1.1.1 ScriptPlayer has a new feature, that can convert funscript to estim audio on the fly.
I haven't had the time to test it, but I thought I share.

I haven't ran into that with the online converter audio but have seen some video audio do it. That is a good point and thanks for mentioning it.

Yes, I use Script Player as well for VR videos that I have scripts for. I finally figured out how to connect my phone with DeoVR app to it and it works great. The estim conversion has actually been a feature for a few versions but it can still get buggy, If you ever listened to the audio for the stim, it'll get noisy with clicks and pops. I haven't felt anything unpleasant but I know it's there. I've also ran into issues with videos not playing well depending how they are encoded. Ran into that with Stacy vs Sybil. It was real choppy with 1.1.0. Haven't tried it since I made a surround file for it.

Anybody have any tips about converting audio into an Estim file? I have been trying to create something that syncs to music and/or "sexy sounds" . I tried making some transformations using Audacity (removing spikes, etc.), but the result was not great.

Anybody have any tips about converting audio into an Estim file? I have been trying to create something that syncs to music and/or "sexy sounds" . I tried making some transformations using Audacity (removing spikes, etc.), but the result was not great.

I've been thinking of an approach and am about to try it:
Identify some broad frequency bands in the source audio that you want to drive the action, like maybe a bass range for an anal signal and a vocal range for some head flutter, etc. You don't actually stim to these frequencies, but you use them as filter bands. Think of a graphic EQ, and when one of those bars jumps up or down, it is going to drive a stim signal. Now pick the frequencies that feel good, and use the amplitude of that filter (EQ bar) to shape the feel-frequency. You could put each frequency on any channel, no need to limit to two frequencies.

My first try is with a vocoder to detect the bands, modulating an output signal that is just the feel-frequencies as sine waves. This doesn't give me control over the input vs. output frequencies, but I have something rough ready to try for my next session, and it was really quick to do, just to see if this has promise.
