Hello, SiriusTraveler.

You might also want to try to use the cues Monroe teaches without the tapes. They can be highly effective, especially if repeated. I used them at different times to induce trance, and they work well - prolonged sessions like when I was travelling on a commuter train, or even a short one, where I actually felt the room fade. Practicing trancing and the counting/relaxation cues over and over was the best trance work for me - no other practice worked as well for me when it comes to inducing trance.

I'm also glad to see that you enjoy experimenting. Try new combinations, it can also boost effectivity to vary the setup once in a while and explore new ways of doing practices.
