Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Montage for Increased Pitch Perception

Anode: Temporal Lobe (T3) – OR – Temporal Lobe (T4)

Cathode: Opposite Shoulder

Study Results: Improved Pitch Perception

Other Uses: Improved Audio Processing and General Hearing

Notes: Popular montage for musicians and lovers of music. Studies noted significant improvement in auditory processing occurring with audio frequencies of around 4k Hertz.

Scientific Studies:

• Polarity-dependent transcranial direct current stimulation effects on central auditory processing.
• Non-invasive brain stimulation applied to Heschl’s gyrus modulates pitch discrimination
