INTRODUCTION: The various competing sound present in our environment is being constantly untangled by our brain, and attributed into distinct perceptual streams analogous to the distinct sound sources in listeners’ environment (Bregman, 1990; Moore & Gockel, 2002; Carlyon, 2004). The process with which the nervous system makes sense of complex patterns of acoustic stimulation is called auditory scene analysis (Bregman, 1990).
