What does music sound like for a CI user?

In normal hearing, place and rate pitch mechanisms are seamlessly integrated and support one another. In electric hearing, place and rate pitch mechanisms are both disrupted. Difference between middle C and one semitone above or below ~15 Hz

Pitch perception is the single biggest obstacle for CI-mediated perception of music Relative pitch > absolute pitch

How do we measure musical sound quality in CI users?

Musical Sound Quality is Poor in CI Users

  • CI users subjectively report poorer musical sound

quality following implantation

(Gfeller et al 2002; Lassaletta et al 2008)

  • Sound quality traditionally assessed via

questionnaires or rating scales (Lassaletta et al 2008; Gfeller et al

2008; Looi et al 2008, 2011)

  • Assessment of sound quality can be used as a tool, not an

indicator of preference or enjoyment

Cochlear Implant-MUltiple Stimulus with Hidden Reference and Anchor

(CI-MUSHRA)

  • 25 full quality musical stimuli are increasingly degraded:

– Example: Removal of bass frequencies – Hidden reference (best sound quality) – 200 Hz HPF – 400 Hz HPF – 600 Hz HPF – 800 Hz HPF – 1000 Hz HPF – Anchor (1000-1200Hz band-pass filter) No Alterations Highly Altered

How do we improve music for CI users?

  • Change the CI
  • Change the brain
  • Change the music

Can we tune cochlear implants?

Conclusions

  • Music is the pinnacle of hearing
  • Critical impairments in pitch, timbre and sound quality

are observed in CI users

  • These impairments reveal limitations of CI processing

that speech testing does not

  • Cochlear implants are severely out of tune
  • We must work to improve CI designs, processing

strategy, musical training, and even the music itself
