denote the standard errors of the means. Negative values reflect improvement, positive values reflect impairment. Subjective tinnitus loudness, subjective
tinnitus annoyance, and experienced handicapping by the tinnitus were measured with visual analogue scales. Groups (Target, Placebo and

Year: 2011 Region: Germany Short and Intense Tailor-Made Notched Music Training against Tinnitus: The Tinnitus Frequency Matters
24 users were recruited with chronic tinnitus and less than 50 dB of hearing loss to listen to Tailor-Made Notched Music Therapy for 6 hours a day for 5 days. 3 hours after completing only five days of therapy, tinnitus loudness was decreased by approximately 20%, and 31 days later, remained reduced by about 10%. This effect was noted only for Notched Music applied to users with a tinnitus frequency under 8,000 hZ.

Normalized tinnitus loudness changes relative to baseline at four time points after training completion for both patient groups. White bars represent the low tinnitus frequency (≤8 kHz) group, black bars represent the high tinnitus frequency (>8 kHz) group. Asterisks denote significant changes, the error bars denote standard errors of the mean. Positive values indicate aggravation, and negative values indicate alleviation."[/caption]
Year: 2016 Region: Germany Clinical Trial on Tonal Tinnitus with Tailor-Made Notched Music Training
The original German team that pioneered Tailor-Made Notched Music Therapy enrolled 100 patients in a clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of this same treatment. After a three month duration, tinnitus loudness was found to be decreased in the treatment group. The reduction in loudness was observed to be small, but persisted one month after the cessation of therapy.
