Re: maximum tatum (one tatum, two tata)

I beg to differ with Pierre but there should be a difference
between predictive sounds (such as a glissando, or even Morse code)
and totally random onsets. One of your contributors mentioned multiple
sounds, and there too, there is a matter of attention (cocktail party
effect) and illusion (alternating octaves) where there has been some
research, although not terribly much in the way of discrete event
counting. Diana Deutsch's work is of note.
