Abstract
Transient and steady-state auditory evoked fields (AEFs) to brief tone pips were recorded over the left hemisphere at 7 different stimulus rates (0.125–39 Hz) using a 37-channel biomagnetometer. Previous observations of transient auditory gamma band response (GBR) activity were replicated. Similar rate characteristics and equivalent dipole locations supported the suggestion that the steady-state response (SSR) at about 40 Hz represents the summation of successive overlapping (10 Hz) middle latency responses (MLRs). On the other hand, differences in equivalent dipole locations and habituation effects suggest that the magnetically recorded GBR is a separate phenomenon which occurs primarily at low stimulus rates and is unrelated to either the magnetically recorded MRL or SSR.
