      <property>
	      <name>Modality</name>
	      <value>
			<type>string</type>
	      </value>
	      <definition>The stimulus modality like acoustic, haptic, light etc.</definition>
      </property>
     
      <property>
	      <name>Duration</name>
	      <value>
			<type>float</type>

		 </value>
	      <definition>The duration of the stimulus in seconds.</definition>
      </property>
      
      <property>
	      <name>OffsetTime</name>
	      <value>
			<type>float</type>
			<unit>s</unit>
		 </value>
	      <definition>The temporal offset (with respect to the begin of the recorded trial) with which this stimulus was presented.</definition>
      </property>
      
      <property>
	      <name>Function</name>
	      <value>
			<type>string</type>
	      </value>
	      <definition>The function of the described stimulus. E.g. if the white noise constituted the carrier.</definition>
      </property>
      
      <property>
	      <name>OutputChannel</name>
	      <value>
			<type>string</type>
	      </value>
	      <definition>The physical output device (e.g. an analog output channel, a monitor screen, the same loudspeaker, etc.). This 
	      information can be used to explicitely express that several stimuli (that share the same OutputChannel) are jointly presented.</definition>
      </property>
      
      <property>
	      <name>Mean</name>
	      <value>
			<type>float</type>
	      </value>
	      <definition>The mean intensity of the white noise stimulus.</definition>

	      <name>LowerCutoffFrequency</name>
	      <value>
			<type>float</type>
			<unit>Hz</unit>
	      </value>
	      <definition>The low frequency cutoff of the highpass filter with which the stimulus was filtered. (Lowest frequency may also be
	      limited by the stimulus duration)</definition>
      </property>

			<type>float</type>
			<unit>Hz</unit>
	      </value>
	      <definition>The upper frequency cutoff of lowpass filter with which the stimulus was filtered. (Upper cutoff may also be
	      defined by the nyquist frequency, respective the sample rate.)</definition>
      </property>
      
      <property>
	      <name>Filter</name>
	      <value>
			<type>string</type>
	      </value>
	      <definition>The filter method applied to limit the frequeny content of the stimulus.</definition>

	   <property>
	      <name>Position</name>
	      <value>
			<type>2-tuple</type>
	      </value>
	      <definition>The position of the stimulus on e.g the screen. Specified as a 2-tuple (x;y). By default this position refers to the top-left corner of the object or its bounding box.</definition>

			<type>string</type>
	      </value>
         <definition>By default stimulus positions are specified by the coordinates of the top-left corner (or of the bounding box). Use this property for other definitions.</definition>
