What am I up to?
| |||
| · | | I have a small software development company called Particular Programs Ltd. I may be available for consultancy if you have a music-audio-related software project in mind. |
| |||
| · | | My company publishes audio software through the foolishly-named website Breakfast Quay. |
| |||
| · | | Between 2005 and 2020 I worked as a developer in the Centre for Digital Music at Queen Mary University of London. Many of my projects from this period can be found on the SoundSoftware code site. |
| |||
| · | | While there, from 2010 to 2014 I worked on the SoundSoftware project, aiming to help audio and music researchers in UK academia manage software development more productively. |
| |||
| · | | I have a blog, a LinkedIn profile, photos on Flickr, occasional tweets, and potential non-tweets. |
|
Software new and old.
| |||
| · | | Rubber Band Library, an audio time-stretching and pitch-shifting library and utility program. GPL with commercial licence available. |
| |||
| · | | Sounds Different, a commercial desktop application for comparative visualisation of music audio recordings. |
| |||
| · | | Rubber Band Audio, a small commercial utility applying Rubber Band Library in musically useful ways. |
| |||
| · | | Sonic Visualiser, a free program for looking at the contents of digital audio files, particularly of music. |
| |||
| · | | Rosegarden, an audio and MIDI sequencer and musical notation editor for Linux. |
| |||
| · | | EasyMercurial, a friendly user interface for the Mercurial version control system. |
| |||
| · | | Vamp, an interface for audio analysis and feature extraction plugins. |
| |||
| · | | The DSSI audio effects and instrument plugin interface, and dssi-vst plugin adapter. |
|
Software even older.
| |||
| · | | Studio to Go!, a commercial Linux distribution of music and audio applications: discontinued in 2008, but you can still read a review or a couple of articles about it. |
| |||
| · | | wm2 and wmx X11 window managers. |
| |||
| · | | Bitmap Garamond and Codec one-size BDF bitmap screen fonts. |
| |||
| · | | Mandarin big-5 online annotator with matching grammar notes for complete beginners like me. |
| |||
| · | | An OpenGL hack for xscreensaver inspired by SGI electropaint. No longer worth your time: this program is infinitely better. |
| |||
| · | | A simple Missile Command style game for X11. |
Very short stories.
