This paper discusses how haptic devices and physical modelling can be employed to
design and simulate multisensory virtual musical instruments, providing the musician with …

The FireFader is a simple haptic force-feedback device that is optimized for introducing
musicians to haptics. It is based upon a single-degree-of-freedom potentiometer fader …

The nature of human/instrument interaction is a long-standing area of study, drawing interest
from fields as diverse as philosophy, cognitive sciences, anthropology, human–computer …

This paper describes the implementation and informal evaluation of a user interface that
explores haptic feedback for 3D audio mixing. The implementation compares different …

Physical modelling techniques are now an essential part of digital sound synthesis, allowing
