Hi! I'm a graduate student in NYU's Music Technology program. There, I'm transferring my skills as an audio engineer and producer into real time audio effects development. For my thesis, I'm developing a digital distortion and compressor using the JUCE framework. Mainly, I am interested in the intricacies of implementation. A basic digital dynamic range compressor is easy to find online. But how do you build one that is useful? One that sounds good, is easy to control, and offers something new to users?
I graduate in May 2020, after which I hope to refine my plugin into a commercially viable product. I will also be seeking a junior developer position in audio software.
In a previous life, I led an indie rock band, touring around the US and recording other bands when I was home. That's how I got into this whole mess.
