This paper describes Sound Scope Headphones, which enable the user to control an audio mixer through natural head and hand movements. When listening to music, a listener might want to hear particular parts more clearly or reduce the level of some parts. Such a capability is possible with commercial audio mixers that perform multi-channel recording and mix-downs. However, commercial audio mixers are too complicated for musical novices to be able to control numerous channel volumes and panpots. Our headphone device controls an audio mixer by using three sensors: a digital compass, a tilt sensor, and a distance sensor. These sensors are mounted on the headphones and they detect natural movements, such as of the head or a hand placed behind an ear when the user is listening to music. By putting their hand behind their ear, the listener adjusts the distance sensor on the headphones to focus on a particular part that they want to hear. We made three distance sensor prototypes and experimental results show that musical novices are more able to find a target instrument in a multi-channel recording with an infrared distance sensor.
