    Musical timbre perception investigated using forward-masking
    Stainsby, Thomas H. ; McDermott, Hugh J. ; McKay, Colette M. ; Clark, Graeme M. ( 1999)
    There is growing general interest in the perception of musical sounds by cochlear implantees. This study was aimed at the perception of one specific aspect of musical timbre, the shape of steady-state frequency spectra. The relationship of the physical and internal spectral shapes was investigated using a forward-masking technique. In addition, the ability of subjects to identify and discriminate selected musical sounds was tested in two related experiments.
