Dear Xueliang Zhang,Yes, definitely. The auditory system tries to find a sound that is similar to the 200-Hz complex tone. Once the "embedded" complex tone is heard out, it is often difficult to neglect it.

Dear list, A pure tone can extract corresponding harmonic from complex sound when appearing alternatively. I wonder if a harmonic sound can do the same job? For example, a complex sound with F0=200Hz appears with a complex sound with F0=100 Hz, can we get a continuous perception for F0=200Hz? Thank you for your answers in advance. Xueliang Zhang
