Abstract
Some demonstrative embodiments include apparatuses, systems and methods of sound control. For example, an apparatus may be configured to process one or more audio inputs to be heard in one or more personal sound zones, and a plurality of monitoring inputs, wherein the plurality of monitoring inputs represent acoustic sound at a plurality of predefined monitoring sensing locations, which are defined within the one or more personal sound zones; determine a sound control pattern based on the one or more audio inputs, and the plurality of monitoring inputs, the sound control pattern comprising a plurality of sound control signals configured to drive a respective plurality of acoustic transducers such that the one or more audio inputs are to be heard in the one or more personal sound zones; and output the plurality of sound control signals to the plurality of acoustic transducers.
