## Files and Folders

Individual audio files are included in three .zip files, separated by Bird Subject.   

#### Subject A Pre-Stim Syllables: Individual audio .wav files of different birdsong syllables with a harmonic structure from adult male zebra finches that represent 25 copies taken just prior to the Experimental Stimulation, e.g. 'Pre-Stim'. Subject A has Syllables B, C, D, F, G. Individual audio files have the naming convention based on syllable copy number.

#### Subject A Stim Syllables: Individual audio .wav files of birdsong syllables with a harmonic structure from adult male zebra finches that represent 25 copies taken during the Experimental Stimulation, e.g. 'Stim'. Subject A has Syllables B, C, D, F, G. Individual audio files have the naming convention based on syllable copy number.

#### Subject B Pre-Stim Syllables: Individual audio .wav files of different birdsong syllables with a harmonic structure from adult male zebra finches that represent 25 copies taken just prior to the Experimental Stimulation, e.g. 'Pre-Stim'. Subject B has Syllables B, C, E. Individual audio files have the naming convention based on syllable copy number.

#### Subject B Stim Syllables: Individual audio .wav files of birdsong syllables with a harmonic structure from adult male zebra finches that represent 25 copies taken during the Experimental Stimulation, e.g. 'Stim'.

#### Subject C Pre-Stim Syllables: Individual audio .wav files of different birdsong syllables with a harmonic structure from adult male zebra finches that represent 25 copies taken just prior to the Experimental Stimulation, e.g. 'Pre-Stim'. Subject C has Syllables D, E. Individual audio files have the naming convention based on syllable copy number.
