Scarlett 2i2

Manufactured by Sennheiser

The Scarlett 2i2 is a 2-in, 2-out USB audio interface designed for recording and monitoring audio. It features two Scarlett microphone/instrument inputs with gain control, 48V phantom power, and high-headroom, low-noise preamps. The Scarlett 2i2 connects to a computer via USB and provides direct monitoring, allowing users to hear their input signal with zero latency.

Data were collected with between one and four computerized stations for each testing location. Each station included a computer, a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 USB sound card, two sets of Sennheiser HD 280 Pro headphones and a tapping sensor (Fig. 2). This design is identical to that reported in the paper by Jacoby and McDermott that introduced the experiment paradigm^{26 (link)}. Each sensor contained a microphone embedded in sound isolation materials and covered with a soft cloth to muffle impact sounds as much as possible. Instructions for constructing the sensor are provided in the supplementary Open Science Framework (OSF) repository. The microphone in each sensor was highly sensitive, and light touches generated bursts of noise that were recorded by the microphone. The sound card simultaneously recorded the microphone output and the audio stimulus played out by the participant’s headphones, so that the latency of the response recording relative to the stimulus was nearly eliminated (less than 1 ms). The specification of the hardware and instructions for building the sensor are provided in the OSF repository associated with this paper (see ‘Data availability’).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
