Melody processing and sound onset recruit distinct auditory cortex regions, roughly 10 mm apart.
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 (
