An evaluation of earcons for use in auditory human-computer interfaces
CHI '93: Proceedings of the INTERACT '93 and CHI '93 Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems

An evaluation of earcons was carried out to see whether they are an effective means of communicating information in sound. An initial experiment showed that earcons were better than unstructured bursts of sound and that musical timbres were more ...
Lyricon Lyrics + Earcons Improves Identification of Auditory Cues
Proceedings, Part II, of the 4th International Conference on Design, User Experience, and Usability: Users and Interactions - Volume 9187

Auditory researchers have developed various non-speech cues in designing auditory user interfaces. A preliminary study of "lyricons" lyricsï ź+ï źearcons [1] has provided a novel approach to devising auditory cues in electronic products, by combining ...
