“…In this respect, there is ample evidence that, in isolation, visual and auditory sensory processing are governed by oscillatory activity in the alpha band (Ergenoglu et al, 2004;Hanslmayr et al, 2007;Romei et al, 2008aRomei et al, ,b, 2010Van Dijk et al, 2008;Dugué et al, 2011;Weisz et al, 2011;Frey et al, 2014), while somatosensory processing typically occurs within the beta band (Salenius and Hari, 2003;Foffani et al, 2005;Engel and Fries, 2010;Baumgarten et al, 2015). While there is abundant documentation of the relationship of visual processing with alpha oscillations, and with the speed of alpha frequency (Samaha and Postle, 2015;Wutz et al, 2016Wutz et al, , 2018Gulbinaite et al, 2017;Minami and Amano, 2017;Ronconi et al, 2018), there is little empirical evidence highlighting the specific oscillatory nature of the interaction between multiple senses. We and other groups have shown that the impact of simple auditory stimulation on visual processing seems to be governed by the way sounds phase align alpha oscillatory activity in the occipital cortex (Teplan et al, 2003;Romei et al, 2012;Mercier et al, 2013;Frey et al, 2014;Gleiss and Kayser, 2014).…”
