Synth builder · C++ / JUCE audio developer · Norwich, UK
I'm building Orbiton, an exciting and novel portable synthesiser with a unique interface.
I also help companies build audio plugins and applications in C++ with JUCE.
Most of my time goes into Orbiton — the hardware, the firmware and the instrument design.
I've just finished BLResampler, an open-source C++ application for generating band-limited wavetables.
Reading The Patterning Instinct by Jeremy Lent.
