Flexible routing of visual input signals has been linked to changing patterns of synchrony between gamma rhythms of distant neural groups. It has been proposed that attention increases distant gamma-band synchrony by increasing the gamma frequency of the sender group processing the attended stimulus. This stimulus is subsequently preferentially processed. However, the frequency of gamma activity fluctuates over time, varies between areas, and depends on stimulus characteristics, which may complicate entrainment between oscillators. Here, we investigate the relationship between the frequency of
