# obspy.core.stream.Stream.attach_response

`Stream.``attach_response`(inventories)

  Search for and attach channel response to each trace as trace.stats.response. Does not raise an exception but shows a warning if response information can not be found for all traces. Returns a list of traces for which no response could be found. To subsequently deconvolve the instrument response use `Stream.remove_response()`.

      >>> from obspy import read, read_inventory
      >>> st = read()
      >>> inv = read_inventory()
      >>> st.attach_response(inv)
      []
      >>> tr = st[0]
      >>> print(tr.stats.response)
      Channel Response
         From M/S (Velocity in Meters per Second) to COUNTS (Digital Counts)
         Overall Sensitivity: 2.5168e+09 defined at 0.020 Hz
         4 stages:
            Stage 1: PolesZerosResponseStage from M/S to V, gain: 1500
            Stage 2: CoefficientsTypeResponseStage from V to COUNTS, ...
            Stage 3: FIRResponseStage from COUNTS to COUNTS, gain: 1
            Stage 4: FIRResponseStage from COUNTS to COUNTS, gain: 1

  Parameters: | inventories (`Inventory` or `Network` or a list containing objects of these types.) Station metadata to use in search for response for each trace in the stream.
  Return type: | list of `Trace`
  Returns: | list of traces for which no response information could be found.
