(A) A reproduction of Figure 12 from Todd and Brown (1996) illustrating the auditory-motor hypothesis as it was envisaged at this time. The auditory system computed both low-pass and band-pass representations of a rhythmic sequence. This then allowed a central process to make use of a motor representation to interpret the meter and select an appropriate metrical grid. (B) A reproduction of Figure 16 from Todd and Brown (1996) illustrating a simulated auditory nerve input and metrical grid response to a duple accent rhythm.
