Controller Design Issues: Parameter Mapping
What algorithm parameters do you wish to control (and how)?
Some algorithms offer intuitive parameter mappings:
e.g., clarinet physical model: breath pressure
In other cases, a parameter may present a less obvious mapping solution:
e.g., clarinet physical model: reed stiffness, vocal-tract shape
We may have a technique with known parameters but no intuitive interface
e.g., granular synthesis: grain size, grain density, ...
An existing interface may play a role in the algorithm control design:
e.g., a controller with push buttons only
A good control mapping may combine two or more algorithm parameters:
e.g., brass physical model: lip resonance, pipe length
