    Hello,

    I am about to purchase a ThoughtStream USB and I need to know if it will work with a laptop running Windows 8. I would appreciate hearing from someone on this. Thanks in advance.

    Hello and welcome!

    The ThoughtStream is a standalone product and does not need to be connected to a computer to operate.

    Which software are you interested in using with the ThoughtStream?

    Hi, thank you for your welcome and speedy response.

    I understand that the ThoughtStream is a standalone product, but I would like to use the USB software to log sessions.

    Prior to your answering Andy's question I will say that the free ThoughtStream monitor provided by us does work on 8.1. There is a newer version of the driver for the USB chip. I will put it up on the support site tomorrow and post a link here. The current driver there might work too. I just recently got a hybrid tablet with Windows 8.1 so that is what I am testing with.

    Mind Workstation from Transparent Corp works with the TS USB on current Windows. I don't know about Mental Games yet, but can test if you are interested in that.

    Mind Workstation supports the ThoughtStream very well. It automatically calibrates its range to your personal reading and maps the readings to a useful range of 0-100. There are several types of content you can control with the biofeedback reading: light, sound, screen visualizations etc.

    MWS includes a feature called BioOptimization that uses the ThoughtStream to gather data on your response to session parameters (entrainment frequencies, sound pitch, light brightness, etc), while testing a number of different values and building a database that optimizes those settings according to the results. Used over time it takes much of the guesswork out of determining what works best for you.

    I am somewhat of an expert on that software (and obviously the ThoughtStream) so if you have any questions or special needs please feel free to ask. Also, the support from Transparent is excellent as well.

    Best,
    Scott
