If you want to use continuous .wav audio files (e.g. concatenated speech or music) during EEG or reaction time (RT) experiments, you can add cue points (as text markers) directly to your .wav audio files to ensure timing precision. Presentation can read these cue points as the sound attribute “cue events”.
