Abstract:An inexpensive microcomputer-based system has been developed for fast digital synthesis of complex sound stimuli, recording of neural activity, and interactive on-line histogramming and plotting of response properties. The hardware requirements for stand-alone synthesis and spike recording capability are an Apple Macintosh II, a GW Instruments data acquisition card, and a modest amount of interfacing and signal conditioning electronics. Off-line analysis of acquired data files can be performed on any current M… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
