Spectral power and topography of the Steady-State-Field (averages of 12 subjects). Bottom graph: topography of the magnetic SSF evoked by the 600 Hz tone (top view, nose up). Upper left graph (green box): spectral power of the magnetic SSF at a selected sensor (left anterior, indicated by green frame) for all conditions and the baseline. Upper right graph: (blue box): spectral power of the magnetic SSF in the source space (MNE) for one selected dipole location. This dipole is approximately located in the area of the left auditory cortex and is indicated by a blue filled circle. Conditions: Tone = 600 Hz tone, NoComp = incomprehensible word string, Comp = word string after comprehension as sentence, T.seq = melody-like sequence of tones, Scale = tone scale).
