Auditory Streaming

Listen

Hw1

Process

The first section demonstrates auditory streaming in one channel: instruments 1 and 3 are grouped while instrument 2 remains solo.

In the second section, I make use of 2 channels, and reverb the first instrument in the left channel. It becomes unclear in this section with which instrument the third instrument is grouped, but it definitely disappears.

the third section removes the reverb, to test if this is what is creating the grouping of sounds. In this section, I find that I group each instrument separately, or that I group instrument 2, which is a full octave higher than the other two, with instrument 3.

in the last section, I wanted to pit pitch against channel, and found that channel won.
