Ideas on how to say "controllerism"?

¡Hola!
I'm currently in my third year of spanish classes (spanish 1 and 2 in Middle School, spanish 2 again in High School because of a weird difference in courses), and I'm wondering how I might say "controllerism"(1)(2) in Spanish. So far I've come up with "controladorismo", and for "controllerist" "controladorista". Any ideas?

I am not familiar with this word, so I don't know how it is translated; however, you're making things unnecessarily complicated: most words in -ism are translated as -ismo. Just remove that unnecessary extra L in controllerism, and you'll get "controlerismo", which sounds almost identical.

Golden rule here in the grammar forum. Provide CONTEXT of word. Does this refer to a game controller as in joystick? I don't know what controllerism is in English.

Controllerism is the art of manipulating sounds and creating music live using computer controllers and software. ¡Ya lo sé!
