We evaluated the social interactions and communication between unfamiliar individuals in pairs. For these recordings of social behaviour and ultrasonic communication, we focused on pairs of individuals since we currently cannot identify the emitter of USVs when animals were interacting closely. Therefore, we recorded undisturbed dyadic interactions between two unfamiliar individuals (from two different housing cages) of the same age (14-20 weeks of age) and genotype for 47h (two days and nights). For that purpose, we coupled the Live Mouse Tracker system (plugin 931) with one CM16/CMPA microphone (Avisoft Bioacoustics, Glienecke, Germany) connected to the Avisoft Ultrasound Gate 416 (300 kHz sampling rate, 16-bit format; trigger: level of this channel; pre-trigger: 1 s; hold time: 1 s; duration > 0.005 s; trigger event: 2 % energy in 25-125 kHz with entropy < 50%; Avisoft Bioacoustics, Glienecke, Germany). LMT and Avisoft systems were synchronised based on the protocol described in (de Chaumont et al., 2021). Each upload includes the sqlite database from LMT (processed, with USV synchronised) and a zip file with all USVs sequences automatically recorded by Avisoft.
