Abstract
Systems and methods for collectively generating sound are provided. A sound composition can include multiple component pieces and those component pieces can be divided amongst devices so that the devices can collectively generate the sound composition. For example, each component piece may be assigned to a different device and the each device may provide its assigned component pieces in a synchronized manner so that the overall sound composition is collectively generated. By generating a sound composition in this manner, the network may create new and exciting spatial effects.

13. A method for collectively generating a sound composition that includes multiple component pieces, the method comprising:
-
determining a characteristic of a network that includes multiple devices; assigning a component piece to at least one of the devices in the network; transmitting data to the at least one device; and generating sound using the at least one device, wherein the at least one device generates a blend of the component piece and the sound composition and the blend is based at least partially on the characteristic of the network. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
