Temporal Masking
Temporal masking is the characteristic of the auditory system where
sounds are hidden due to maskers before or even after that time. The
effect of masking after a strong sound is called post-masking,
and can be in effect up to 200 ms. The pre-masking, where a
sound actually is masked by something which appears after it, is
relatively short and may last up to 20 ms. An illustration of this can
be found in Fig.
.
