title: Spectral and temporal processing in the human auditory cortex--revisited.
abstract: We use novel noise-like sound stimuli to identify cortical areas in which the functional magnetic resonance signal covaries with spectral and temporal acoustic complexity. The results support a model of hemispheric functional asymmetry for fine-grained spectral and fast temporal processing.
