A digital sound editor.
A series of digital computer programs which facilitate the production and control of acoustic stimuli for hearing assessment and research are described. The package, which is available for PDP 11 computers under RT-11, allows sounds to be digitized, adjusted for amplitude and/or dc offset, edited while in digital form, and output to file or tape. The waveform editor package includes facilities to edit sounds in time--with some sections removed or added with temporal precision of 0.1 msec or better. Two or more sounds may also be combined for stereo or monaural (sound-on-sound) output, or two may be concatenated. Together, the programs permit a wide range of manipulations useful in preparing sound stimuli for use in hearing experiments or in clinical audiometry.
