Seek to work on a formative project in a creative atmosphere, where both my computer skills and my passion for music will be useful. I am greatly motivated to team up with high-skilled specialists in sound technology and to be part of a leading company.

Langages

80x86 assembler, C, C++, java, PL7.2, Grafcet, SQL, HTML, ASP

Prefered Domains

Microcontrollers, Signal Processing, Low-Level, Imaging, Real-Time

Operating Systems

Linux, Windows, MacOS 9, UNIX, VxWorks

Signal Processing

Matlab, Simulink, LabView, FFTW

The diploma I am currently preparing includes a Sound & Music Analysis & Synthesis course. I also have a traditional Signal Processing background from my previous degrees.

Sound Analysis & Synthesis

spectral analysis

psychoacoustics & compression

musical parameters calculation (harmonicity, brilliance, volume,...)

spatialization perception & emulation

additive and FM synthesis

effects (chorus, flanger, stretching, reverberation, ...)

MIDI

Signal Processing

Fourrier, Z and Laplace transforms

digital filters design (Finite and Inifinite Response)

electronics (active & passive filters, op. amps, transistors...)

Besides this theorical background, I acquired during either projects or practical works specific know-how that you might find relevant.

Effects

made a Robotization effect, using Overlap-Add technique

Hardware

controlled ADC/DAC board at low-level (PCLab 8055)

Real-Time

designed multithread applications with VxWorks, running on Motorolla

created real-time recursive filters, in C and in LabView

Libraries

FFTW, Jack, MidiShare, faudiostream

Personal Practice

CoolEdit Pro (Audition), Soundforge, Reason

School Project

IUP GI La Rochelle

2002-2003

6 month as a project

· Mission :

to create a 3D "shoot'em up", C++ with openGL

· Tasks :

creation of the engine : classes, motion, collisions, events, scenario…

writing of display functions

· Competence benefit :

understanding of multimedia software architecture

Music

Computer music : composition, audio recording, sound manipulation

Studio engineering : attended a sound technique workshop (80 hours)

Practice of various instruments : drums, guitar (classical & electric), now learning keyboard

Played the drums in an “art rock” band, a traditional Breton music band, and currently playing the bass in a rock/metal band. Use of a Korg AX1000G processor.
