Hi there, I have this perception experiment uploaded on pavlovia where I use 13ms 3500Hz auditory stimuli beeps. The experiment has 380 trials of this auditory stimuli, and during some trials the beep sound that comes out sounds glitchy, or cut off and does not sound like the rest of the trials. Ive tested this experiment on multiple computers and OS and it still occurs. The cut off sound is completely random, not sure if it is something that can be fixed, but I would love to know whats the reason behind this glitch. Thank you!
The experiment was made on Psychopy builder
Hi, not sure if this helps but to me this happens when there are many other tabs open or other processes running, especially apps that can send audio notification. When I close everything sounds always work fine!
Hello @javiers
Also, I’m not sure if this helps, but don’t start the sound at the onset of the trial, but rather after a small delay.
Best wishes Jens
Hello thank you so much for the response, I usually have all my tabs closed so the experiments run as smooth as possible and it still occurs
Hello thank you so much for the response, all of my trials begin with a 1s ISI
Hello @javiers
Do you the sound-component to play the sound? Or do you load a sound-file during the ISI?
Best wishes Jens
I use the sound-component. Set to 13ms, and 3500Hz.
Hello @javiers
does the same error occur when you use a sound file instead?
Best wishes Jens
