Furthermore, Repp confirmes that the lengthening or shortening of a single interval in an isochronous series triggers a compensation mechanism in the subjects' synchronous tapping.
Additionally, he points out that the perceptual mechanism for the extraction of temporal information which is important for timekeeping in synchronous tapping, must be different from the perceptual mechanism on which judgements of temporal order of events is based.
Additionally, it remains doubtful if a time estimation task as used in the experiment (tapping with interonsetintervals of 5 s) can be regarded as relevant to rhythm production in music.
Mapping Metrical Particularity(Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Thus a meter whose highest level involves a 1.5 second interonset interval--let us assume that this is the highest level of regular patterning that one may hear in the music--has "headroom" for additional levels.
Conversely, if the highest level involves a 4 second inter-onset interval (a measure of 4/4 at a slow tempo, for example), then any higher levels of metric structure are forestalled.
The same also holds for division by threes: recursive ternary division quickly leads to interonsetintervals that are too short to be heard metrically.

Some interonsetintervals (IOIs) were either longer or shorter than the standard, and the deviant intervals were placed either regularly or randomly along a sequence.
When higher intensity tones and deviant time intervals were present in the same sequence, the higher intensity tones always followed the deviant time intervals.
Thus, on the one hand, there would be a repetition of a pattern of long-normal-normal or short-normal-normal intervals in the regular sequences with temporal deviations in every third interval.
4pPP14 Preliminary measures of the focusing of attention on auditory(Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
The focusing of attention on an auditory stream was studied by asking subjects to detect a temporal irregularity in the interonsetinterval between two successive tones of a regular sequence in a 2AFC procedure.
One of these sequences, presented alone as a cue for the target, preceded two observation intervals containing the three concurrent sequences.
The size of the irregularity detected at a 90% level in a target sequence was only detected at chance level in both nontarget sequences.

2pPP42 Temporally directed attending in the discrimination of tempo:(Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Temporal deviations consisted of advancing or delaying the onset of the comparison pattern in relation to an onset predicted by an extension of the periodicity of the standard (i.e., an ``expected'' onset, based on an entrainment model's predictions).
The interonset-interval in the standard sequence was always 400 ms, and the onset of the comparison sequence was manipulated in relation to an ``expected'' interval of 800 ms between the onset of the last tone of the standard sequence and the onset of the comparison sequence.
Discrimination thresholds were determined for conditions in which the comparison pattern onset was early, late, or at the expected temporal location.
When a beat was received in C++, the previous beat’s timer data was subtracted the latest beat’s timer data; this provided the inter-onset interval in milliseconds.
Tempo was then defined in terms of this inter-onset interval; a variable waittime was defined to be the distance between successive sixteenth notes.
There was also a threshold for waittime so that it could not be greater than 220 milliseconds; this was necessary since there would occasionally be a glitch in the Labview timer when it would flip over and start from 0, and this would cause waittime to become impossibly large.
A curious local phenomenon here is the very short second interonsetinterval in the third beat of bar 6, which occurs in the left hand, following a short trill in the right hand, perhaps to compensate for the lengthening associated with the trill.
Intervals longer than a sixteenth note were normalized (i.e., divided by the number of sixteenth notes they contain) and graphed as plateaus extending over their nominal duration along the x-axis.
The unusually short interval in bar 9 may reflect a slip of the finger or possibly a bad splice on the CD..
The LBDM is base on two rules: Change Rule (CR), which boundary strengths proportional to the degree of change between two consecutive intervals are introduced on either of the two intervals, and Proximity Rule (PR) which the boundary introduced on the larger interval is proportionally stronger if two consecutive intervals are different.
To calculate the boundary strength, a melody sequence is converted into 3 parametric interval profiles: pitch, ioi (interonsetintervals), and rest (the interval between current onset with previous offset).
The change rule states that boundary strengths proportional to the degree of change between two consecutive intervals are introduced on either of the two intervals.
Yet another aspect of temporal structure comes into play when there is a causal relation between time intervals, as is the case in describing mental representations for time keepers and the timing of motor programs.
The interonsetinterval stays invariant from the medium to the fast tempo, but seems to scale proportional from the medium to the slow tempo.
We will turn to this technique of analyzing the covariance of the successive time intervals between note onsets in replicated performances at the same tempo, instead of the gross differences in tempo that constituted the independent variable in the previous experiment.
Journal of Motor Behavior: Rate limits in sensorimotor synchronization with auditory and visual sequences: the ...(Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Synchronization of finger taps with an isochronous event sequence becomes difficult when the event rate exceeds a certain limit.
In Experiment 1, the synchronization threshold was reached at interonsetintervals (IOIs) above 100 ms with auditory tone sequences (in a 1:4 tapping task) but at IOIs above 400 ms with visual flash sequences (1:1 tapping).
Using IOIs above those limits, the author investigated in Experiment 2 the reduction in the variability of asynchronies that tends to occur when the intervals between target events are subdivided by additional identical...
The experiments examined age-related changes in temporal sensitivity to increments in the interonsetintervals (IOI) of components in tonal sequences.
Discrimination was examined using reference sequences consisting of five 50-ms tones separated by silent intervals; tone frequencies were either fixed at 4 kHz or varied within a 2-4-kHz range to produce spectrally complex patterns.
After adjustment for inflammation markers and other covariates, the relative risks for low beta-carotene for the 7-year all-cause mortality risk were 2.30 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.23 to 4.31) in men and 0.85 (95% CI, 0.42 to 1.75) in women.

It was something like "the forgotten tradition of in Bach" or something like that.) > > I think what it comes down to is how we define "beat" (I use beat and > pulse synonymously.) If I may suggest some terminological distinctions that I use in computer modelling.
I use the term "pulse" to mean duration between two notes (I don't like the term "interonsetinterval" which sounds as though wielding a clipboard.) I needed a term to describe the construct in which two or more pulses are equal.
The main event here, perceptually, is our recogition (at whatever level) of the parallel between the two pulses -- the strongest parallel of "the same thing," which I call "bounce" as though to emphasize the dramatic nature of the reactivation of a memory.
A tendency of prolongation of the interval beginning with the accented stroke could be seen.
The dividing frequency of about 8 Hz between the two regions is based upon the research of Prof.
Robert Efron, who discovered that the minimum duration of a perception is about 130 ms; when interonsetintervals between repetitive stimuli are clearly shorter than 130 ms, perception of roughness emerges.

A different way of treating event interonsets is to just generate random interonset times within a range - this will sound different.
If you have a PC to run AudioMulch you can hear the difference between BubbleBlower (natural density function) and DLGranulator (interonsets over a random interval.) I'm sure Xenakis has a fair bit to say about such things in Formalized Music, but it's been a long time since I read it.
