final This is Akiyama from the ASMR Research and Development Department.
Thank you very much for getting the ZE3000 for ASMR.

Perhaps some of you might have opened this page while wondering, "What is ASMR?" This page is prepared for those who have just started to take an interest in ASMR, allowing you to experience its world with peace of mind.

Even when we say "ASMR" in one word, there are now various ways to enjoy it, from relaxation purposes to enjoying specific sounds or situations. Among them, this time we will guide you on how to more easily feel the uniquely pleasant tingling sensation (tingle) of ASMR, also known as "listening massage."

Furthermore, to make you feel the tingles more effectively, we have carefully selected recommended content below. Please enjoy it together with the ZE3000 for ASMR.

What is a tingle

ASMR, strictly speaking, refers to the pleasant tingling sensation that occurs from the back of the head to the spine when receiving specific stimuli (triggers) such as sounds or images. This sensation is called a tingle. In many cases, tingles are accompanied by a sense of relaxation, calm, and happiness.

In experiencing ASMR, the first important thing is not to overthink "let's feel it." Relax in a quiet environment and let your body be carried away by the flowing sounds.

Another important element is what kind of ASMR content you listen to. Especially, the type of content and the creative craftsmanship of the creator greatly influence the sensation of tingles.

Tingles are often triggered by the proximity of the sound source (proximity effect). Therefore, you may feel them more easily when you watch or listen to content recorded at a distance close enough to feel your breath on the mic. Whispering, tapping sounds, ear-covering sounds, and ear-cleaning sounds are particularly suitable.

Additionally, being able to relax while watching or listening is important. Relaxing makes it easier to immerse yourself in the world of ASMR, so if the content is overall composed of slow, soothing sounds and visuals, you may find it easier to experience tingles.

As for volume, it is recommended to try to replicate the volume in reality. For example, if you are listening to whispering content, setting the volume to a level similar to real-life whispers will increase the sense of reality and be more effective in inducing tingles. In terms of sensation, it might be slightly louder than when listening to music.

Recommended content

Here, as someone who has enjoyed the sensation of ASMR for over 10 years, I will introduce ASMR content that I think you should definitely listen to with the ZE3000 for ASMR. To help you feel the tingles more deeply, I have gathered content that I wholeheartedly recommend.

Coromo Sara. ASMR


ASMR for those who want to fall asleep immediately / 3 hours (No Talking)

This work is packed with a variety of sound triggers, using everyday items from sponges, wooden products, and kinetic sand. The sound and visuals are extremely high-resolution and beautiful, reflecting the creators' strong attention to detail. At the same time, the actions are always slow and careful, and the sounds produced feel gentle and healing. As ASMR content that purely appeals to the senses, I think it has a wonderful level of completion.

2. Ear massage

Macoto ASMR Makoto.

This work is simple in content, involving covering and uncovering the ears with hands in a dummy head mic, but its simplicity highlights the pure quality of the sound. The contrast between the closed feeling when the ears are covered and the openness when the hands are removed creates an unexpectedly pleasant sensation. Because the amount of visual information is restrained, it is particularly recommended for those who want to immerse themselves in sound with their eyes closed without relying on sight.

3. Hand movements and whispers

ASMR that tingles too much from left and right and makes you sleepy😴😪

The soft, inclusive whispering voice of SevenASMR, along with the gentle gaze that reaches beyond the screen and the hand movements that seem to caress your head, simultaneously stimulate your auditory and visual senses. The expression of Ear to Ear (sound moving back and forth between the left and right ears) is excellent. The pleasant sway of sound positioning, which feels like the air is vibrating, guides you into a deep relaxation like magic. The comfort and tranquility wave over you like a tide, promising a blissful experience of falling asleep before you know it.

4. Mouse sound and chewing noise

Runa ASMR【Ms. Runa】


[ASMR] Chatting while chewing gum and candy🍭【Mouse Sound👄】

While focusing on mouse sounds and chewing noises, you can share a natural and relaxing time with whispering conversations. The sounds of opening candy or gum are clearly recorded, and tapping sounds are scattered throughout, making it a satisfying production for sound enthusiasts. Even if you usually don't like chewing sounds, listening to Ms. Runa's soft-toned casual conversation and occasional smiles may lead to new discoveries, making you think, "This is quite pleasant."

5. Ear scratching sound and whispering

Nakia ASMR - Nakia Ch.


[ASMR/KU100] Deep ear cleaning with cotton swab... Sleep-inducing whispering・Breathing・Ear Cleaning・Cotton Swab【Nakia ASMR/Sleep Induction】

An overwhelming sense of intimacy, as if someone is speaking directly into your ear. Nakia's calm whispering voice and slow breathing create a hypnotic sense of relaxation. The way the cotton swab is moved is exquisite, with no sudden stimulation. When the sound enters your defenseless ears with assurance, you even feel a delusion as if something tangible is there. Forget the time and just let your ears indulge in the tactile sensation of the sound.

6. ヘッドスパ・マッサージ

誰かが何かに深く没頭し、心地よさを感じている姿。それを見ているだけで、こちらまで心が満たされることがあります。穏やかな空気感の中でヘッドマッサージを受け、その心地よさに深くリラックスしているbenioさんの姿は、その幸福感をまるで自分のことのように感じさせてくれます。誰かを癒やし、癒やされる体験を共有することの幸福。ASMRコンテンツが持つ、この共感に浸る喜びに、改めて気づかせてくれる一作です。

6. Diagnosis role play

Roleplay significantly deepens the relaxation effect of sound and images. In this work, it takes the form of a roleplay between a doctor and a student (listener). This role distribution naturally puts us in a receptive posture, relieving mental tension. By adding Sapi's narration, you are drawn into the worldview. For those who feel daily fatigue, this work gently envelops you with kindness.

7. Observation-based roleplay

Each person ASMR-like


Roleplay that strongly brings out "Zowa Zowa" sensation / old school Tingle roleplay【 ASMR 】

"What exactly is ASMR?" The answer to such a question and the careful guidance to tingles are packed into this single piece. Each person, like a researcher, unravels the essence of comfort and provides it to our ears as a technique. Not just relying on senses, but pursuing ASMR with logic, this earnest stance aligns with the design philosophy I aimed for in developing these earphones, and as a creator, I feel a strong resonance.

In conclusion

The recommended contents introduced here are just the entrance to the vast and profound world of ASMR. There is no "correct way to listen" to ASMR. What's important is not someone else's evaluation, but whether you yourself can feel comfortable, that's all. From here, please enjoy the journey of sound exploration that puts your mind at ease. I hope this ZE3000 for ASMR becomes a good partner for that.
