Abstract
A signal processing system, machine and method of use to dynamically change the parameters of an audio-visual signal processing circuit without making physical contact.
Claims18
An audio effects signal processing system, comprising:
- a) an audio effects signal processing circuit for receiving an unprocessed input signal and modifying the unprocessed input signal into a processed output signal as a function of at least one parameter of the audio effects signal processing circuit;
- and
- b) at least one touchless sensor emitting at least one touchless sensor output signal in response to the proximity of an object to the at least one touchless sensor;
- and
- c) a processor for controlling the at least one parameter of the audio effects signal processing circuit as a function of the at least one touchless sensor output signal and one or more control algorithms comprising one or more function transformations.

A machine for controlling at least one parameter of an audio effects signal processing circuit, the machine comprising:
- a) at least one touchless sensor emitting at least one touchless sensor output signal in response to the proximity of an object to the at least one touchless sensor;
- and
- b) a processor for controlling the at least one parameter of the audio effects signal processing circuit as a function of the at least one touchless sensor output signal and one or more control algorithms comprising one or more function transformations.
A method for controlling an audio effects signal processing circuit, the method comprising:
- a) receiving at least one touchless sensor output signal from at least one touchless sensor;
- and
- b) selecting or modifying one or more function transformations;
- and
- c) computing at least one modified parameter value for at least one audio effects signal processing circuit parameter as a function of the at least one touchless sensor output signal and one or more control algorithms comprising the one or more function transformations;
- and
- d) modifying the at least one audio effects signal processing circuit parameter to the at least one modified parameter value.
