Summary

Digital computer systems have revolutionized the field of animal psychoacoustics. Even basic computer systems have the power to perform experiments that were difficult or impossible only 30 years ago. These new abilities have had a profound effect on the field by allowing researchers to generate virtually any stimuli for which they can write a mathematical expression. This chapter discusses the essential theory and practical knowledge needed to generate stimuli using modern Digital Signal Processing hardware.
