Abstract

We show that people continuously react to time perturbations in the range 3–96 ms in otherwise isochronous sound sequences. Musically trained and untrained participants were asked to synchronize with a sequence of sounds, and these two groups performed almost equally below the threshold for conscious detection of the perturbations. Above this threshold the motor reactions accounted for a larger proportion of the stimulus deviations in musically trained participants.
