Abstract
This paper presents the development of methods for gesture control of sound spatialization. It provides a comparison of seven popular software spatialization systems from a control point of view, and examines human-factors issues relevant to gesture control. An effort is made to reconcile these two design- and parameter-spaces, and draw useful conclusions regarding likely successful mapping strategies. Lastly, examples are given using several different gesture-tracking and motion capture systems controlling various parameters of the spatialization system.
