It was not necessary to invoke cognitive-structural representations. This casts some doubt on the existence of such structures. Later in the same article (p. 350), Shepard makes the important point that: considerations of the sensory limitations of the input transducer—such as the reduced efficiency of the ear in discriminating nearby amusical pitches at the low end of the continuum of audible frequencies, which such psychophysical scales of pitch as the mel scale had been designed to represent—are essentially irrelevant to the problem of the representation of the cognitive structures that underlie the interpretation of musical sequences.
