Baddeley's multicomponent working memory model includes slave systems for the processing of verbal and visual-spatial information (Baddeley, 2012; Baddeley & Hitch, 1974). The current study utilized a concurrent suppression paradigm to test for the possibility of a subsidiary tonal system within the multicomponent working memory model for processing musical information. Three primary working memory tasks (tonal, verbal, and visual-spatial) were each paired with four secondary suppression tasks (tonal, verbal, visual-spatial, and no suppression). All 12 conditions were administered to 58 college students (musicians and nonmusicians) in order to examine the relative impact of the different types of suppression (singing, speaking, or tapping a spatial pattern) on tonal, verbal and visual-spatial working memory tasks. Visual-spatial suppression had a detrimental impact on visual-spatial working memory compared to both tonal and verbal suppression. Similarly, tonal suppression had a detrimental impact on tonal working memory compared to both verbal and visual-spatial suppression. Although tonal suppression interfered more with tonal working memory than verbal suppression, there was no differential impact of tonal and verbal suppression on verbal working memory. These mixed results regarding the existence of a tonal loop are discussed within the research surrounding the extent to which verbal and tonal working memory share resources. The results are interpreted within the framework of the multicomponent working memory model, and the role of the episodic buffer is discussed in terms of the asymmetric tonal and verbal working memory findings.
