genTrain: Generate auditory presentation
In crodriguez-saltos/portableStim: Portable Stimuli

Description Usage Arguments Details

Generate auditory presentations based on existing sound files.

genTrain(sound, species = NULL, infodb = NULL, tpres, intRend.type,
  intRend.length = NA, int.factor = 1, nbout = NA, bout.length = NA,
  intBout.type, intBout.length = NA, rate = NA, seed = NA, writewav = T,
  output, ext = "wav", report = T, returnoutput = F)

`sound`	Source sound. Can also be a directory, or many directories, containing the sound file.
`species`	Species for each sound file.
`tpres`	Total duration of presentation in seconds (5 min for sound transmission)
`intRend.type`	Type of intervals between renditions (constant - mean natural interval –- median) (depends on species) - read from a database.
`intRend.length`	Length of the interval between rendtions. Only functional if intRend.type = "custom".
`int.factor`	Factor by which to multiply the length of the interval between renditions. (0.5, 1, or 2) (for sound transmission experiment).
`nbout`	Number of bouts in presentation (all experiments except sound transmission – only those in which bout interval type= random)
`bout.length`	Length of each bout (predetermined: 20s – behavior; 10s – sound transmission; 5s - ZENK)
`intBout.type`	Type of interval between bouts. Can take the values "random" or "constant".
`intBout.length`	Length of interval between bouts (depending on type of interval: range, number)
`rate`	Bout rate, in times per minute.
`seed`	Seed for random number generators.
`writewav`	Logical. Should presentation be written into a wave file?
`output`	Name of output file.
`ext`	Extension of output file. Omitted if already specified in output.
`report`	Logical. Should silence gap start times be reported?
`returnoutput`	Logical. Should output filename be returned?
`infoDB`	Databasee containing info on each source file.
`nrend`	Number of renditions per bout.

If the length of the source audio files is such that the presentation would end being longer than T, the last instance of the source sound will be truncated in order for the duration of the presentation to be equal to T.
