Sense: an electroacoustic composition for surround sound and tactile transducers
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper describes the construction of a system for tactile sound using tactile transducers and explores the compositional potential for a system of these characteristics. It provides a short overview of the technologies involved and the composition methods and studio techniques developed to implement this project. Sense for fourteen discrete channels includes a surround 5.1-sound composition, the development of a six-channel tactile transducers system and the demonstration of the compositional methodology used in the piece. The purpose of the project was to create a holistic listening experience where the audible listening experience is combined with the tactile experiences ultra and infrasound.

Some Considerations for Spatial Design and Concert Projection with Surround 5.1
This article describes the process of composing an electroacoustic music piece using a 5.1 surround sound system for studio monitoring and diffusion in a concert hall. Specific spatial ideas explored in the composition of the piece are explained in connection to the possibilities offered by this system, as well as to its limitations. Considerations are outlined regarding the quality of the spat...
متن کاملSpatial Composition in the Multi-Channel Domain: Aesthetics and Techniques
This paper outlines technical and aesthetic approaches to sound spatialization for electroacoustic music composition. In particular, the paper discusses how spatialization (sound diffusion) can be used to realize specific musical objectives. Technological solutions to problems associated with adapting multichannel compositions for live spatialization are explored, with particular reference to t...
متن کامل3-D Sound Spatialization using Ambisonic Techniques
The exploration of sound spatialization is a preoccupation of many composers and performers of electroacoustic music. Two-channel stereo techniques are widely used in the genre, but more sophisticated forms of sound spatialization are often restricted to those with access to significant technical resources. Recent technological developments have increased access to high-quality, multi-channel a...
متن کاملAn electroacoustic sound transmission system that is stable in any (dissipative) acoustic environment: An application of sound portholes
Active electroacoustic systems are commonly employed to transmit sound from one location to another. For example, consider the following configuration: a person talks into a microphone, which produces an electrically amplified signal for driving a loudspeaker, and the loudspeaker induces an output acoustic signal allowing someone else at a more distant location to hear the person talking. Unfor...
متن کاملInterchange Formats for Spatial audio
Space has been a central parameter in electroacoustic music composition and performance since its origins. Nevertheless, the design of a standardized interchange format for spatial audio performances is a complex task that poses a diverse set of constraints and problems. This position paper attempts to describe the current state of the art in terms of what can be called “easy” today, and what a...
