Procedural audio may be defined as real-time sound generation according to programmatic
rules and live input. It is often considered a subset of sound synthesis and is especially …

FXive is a real-time sound effect synthesis framework in the browser. The system is
comprised of a library of synthesis models, audio effects, post-processing tools, temporal …

Aeroacoustics is a branch of engineering within fluid dynamics. It encompasses sounds
generated by disturbances in air either by an airflow being disturbed by an object or an …

Featured Application A real-time physical model sound effect that can replicate the sound of
a number of swinging objects, such as a sword, baseball bat and golf club, has great …

Sound effects add vital cues for listeners and viewers across a range of media content. In
this chapter we provide a comprehensive overview of sound effect synthesis, including …

A real-time sound synthesis model for propeller sounds is presented. Equations obtained
from fluid dynamics and aerodynamics research are utilised to produce authentic propeller …

Sword sounds are synthesised by physical models in real-time. A number of compact sound
sources are used along the length of the sword which replicate the swoosh sound when …

The cavity tone is the sound generated when air flows over the open surface of a cavity and
a number of physical conditions are met. Equations obtained from fluid dynamics and …

This paper reports on the procedure and results of a preliminary experiment to evaluate
participants' perceptual experiences of a mechanical theatre sound effect and its digital …

There are a range of different methods for comparing or measuring the similarity between
environmental sound effects. These methods can be used as objective evaluation …
