Listening-in-readiness Barry Truax has, according to Borgo (1999), “described three general modes of engaging with the acoustic soundscape: listening-in-search, listening-in-readiness, and background listening”. 5 (pp. 79–80)

"Listening in readiness implies for Truax a “state of attention to receive “significant” audio information and familiar sounds-associations built up over time that may be readily identified”. (p. 80)
