Introduction: Mismatch Negativity (MMN) is an objective exam that does not depend on the subjects’ task performance or attention. It is regularly used to study auditory processing relative to the automatic detection of auditory changes. Objective: To analyze the latencies and amplitudes of MMN in adult musicians and compare the results with those of the control group of normal hearing non-musicians. Methods: This is a cross sectional and comparative study. The sample consisted of 69 subjects, aged between 18 and 59 years, with 40 non-musician subjects (control group) and 29 musicians (study group) with at least 3 years of musical expertise, and ages over 18 years. All patients were assessed by peripheral auditory evaluation and MMN. Results: The mean latencies and amplitudes were 173.61 ms (±49.80) and 4.25μV (±3.60) in the control group, and 144.23 ms (±17.58) and 5.12μV (±2.73) in the study group. There was a significant difference between the groups per ear (p<0.05), and the mean latencies and amplitudes in the study group were 140.08 ms in the right ear and 148.37 ms in the left while the values of amplitude were 4.83μV in the right ear and 5.41μV in the left ear. Conclusion: The musicians presented better results for MMN, such as lower latency and greater amplitude, showing evidence of improved acoustic stimulus processing at the central level.
