What is Seeing, Listening, Drawing: Interferences between Sensorimotor Modalities in the Use of a Tablet Musical Interface about?

Audio, visual, and proprioceptive actions are involved when manipulating a graphic tablet musical interface. Previous works suggested a possible dominance of the visual over the auditory modality in this situation. The main goal of the present study is to examine the interferences between these modalities in visual, audio, and audio-visual target acquisition tasks. Experiments are based on a movement replication paradigm, where a subject controls a cursor on a screen or the pitch of a synthesized sound by changing the stylus position on a covered graphic tablet. The experiments consisted of the following tasks: (1) a target acquisition task that was aimed at a visual target (reaching a cue with the cursor displayed on a screen), an audio target (reaching a reference note by changing the pitch of the sound played in headsets), or an audio-visual target, and (2) the replication of the target acquisition movement in the opposite direction. In the return phase, visual and audio feedback were suppressed. Different gain factors perturbed the relationships among the stylus movements, visual cursor movements, and audio pitch movements. The deviations between acquisition and return movement
