Comodulation masking release (CMR) was investigated as a function of signal frequency (0.5-4.0 kHz) and the total bandwidth of noise centered on the signal frequency. Taking noncomodulated noise of the same bandwidth as the reference condition, CMR for modulated noise increased with increasing bandwidth of the flanking noise outside the critical band centered on the signal tone; however, this growth asymptoted for broad total bandwidths. These bandwidth effects were expressed by scaling the width of the flanking bands beyond the critical band centered on the signal frequency, approximately according to a critical bandwidth scale. After this scaling, signal frequency had negligible effect on CMR magnitude. For the low modulation frequencies involved, a beneficial effect on CMR at high carrier frequencies would not be expected, and none was observed. Some further trends in the masked thresholds in comodulated and noncomodulated conditions, and the choice of appropriate reference condition are discussed.
