I am an applied Machine Learning researcher, working in music technology at IK Multimedia Production.
I previously served as an assistant professor (RTD-A) at the University of Trento, Italy.
More info about my work is on my website 🌐.
I also develop audio plugins as Onyx DSP
Some of my recent research projects are:
- 🎸 Neural Modeling of multiple Guitar Effects at once with control conditioning from a smooth latent/vector space (morphdrive repo),
- 🪐 6-degrees-of-freedom Spatial Audio VST plugin development (MCFX-6DoFconv repo),
- 🎻 An AI music improviser based on extended playing techniques that duets with a double bass player (esteso),
I'm passionate about music, audio software development and have been coding C++ JUCE plugins since 2020.
I also love to play the guitar and twist knobs on synths like I know what I'm doing 🎛🎹
