Six studies explore how signals going from the brain to parts of the auditory system helps the system perform a number of functions, including adapting to background noise and allowing transients and other brief stimuli to be properly coded. They include discussions of the olivocochlear system and protection from acoustic injury, ontogenetic and evolutionary evidence for the motoneuron nature of vestibular and cochlear efferents, de-recruitment by multiband compression in hearing aids, and clinical applications. The CD contains a brief video of hair cell control and damping. The papers were presented at a September 1997 meeting at an unspecified location. Annotation c.
