Controlling the Perceptual Organization of Sound
... One might think that it would be simple to decompose the summed pressure wave by simply representing it in the frequency domain (as a set of frequency components). A mixture of natural sounds is shown in Figure 1 as a spectrogram, which shows time on the x-axis and frequency on the y-axis, the darkn ...

Recent work using ABRs elicited by short duration tones rather than click stimuli, has shown that threshold estimates can be made with reasonable accuracy across a range of stimulus frequencies (Stapells, Picton, Durieux-Smith, Edwards, & Moran, 1990).

Olivocochlear system
The olivocochlear system is a component of the auditory system involved with the descending control of the cochlea. Its nerve fibres, the olivocochlear bundle (OCB), form part of the vestibulocochlear nerve (VIIIth cranial nerve, also known as the auditory-vestibular nerve), and project from the superior olivary complex in the brainstem (pons) to the cochlea.
