Exploring Real-Time DSP Systems for Mixing and Performance

Over the past four years, Jatin Chowdhury developed a wide variety of audio DSP systems intended to be used by mixing engineers and instrumentalists, including non-linear digital audio effects, timbral converters, binaural renderers, physical models, and more. This presentation will give a brief overview of all his previous works as well as several still in progress, along with more in-depth discussion of recent projects including notGuitar (a real-time timbral conversion system), various distortion effects, and NewMixer (a non-traditional mixing tool).

Bio: Jatin Chowdhury is an electrical engineer turned audio engineer, currently completing his first year in the Music, Science, and Technology program at the Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics at Stanford University. His academic interests include digital signal processing, digital audio effects, and creating musical tools. His musical interests include, piano, saxophone, and exploring the broken sounds of the world. Before attending Stanford, Jatin received a Bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Southern California, with Minors in Physics and Music Recording.
