Embodiments relate to devices, systems, and methods for creating highly localized, remote audible zones or noise control zones by utilizing nonlinear interactions of ultrasonic beams. Ultrasonic sources may produce inaudible, straight or curved trajectories that can bypass obstacles, such as human heads or barriers or follow direct paths in open space. When intersecting at a designated target zone, the nonlinear acoustic interaction generates an audible difference-frequency wave within the human audible range, delivering targeted sound content without disturbing surrounding areas. Alternatively, the ultrasonic sources may produce beams to control and / or cancel audible content in a designated zone.
