Melody and energy-onset generators occupy distinct auditory cortex loci.

Evidence

The melody generator was located in the medial part of Heschl’s gyrus (HG); the onset generator about 10 mm more posterior in PT—a common location for the onset N1m. — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 4703 (#corroborates, via linked claim)

Categorization

  • XREF: connects to: Melody processing and sound onset recruit distinct auditory cortex regions, roughly 10 mm apart.; Melody change processing localizes more anteriorly than energy onset in auditory cortex — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 4703; Note-evoked auditory activity arises from two distinct sources in each hemisphere (+1 more)
