Dear Music-DSP list, (Apologies for cross posting)
In less than a couple of weeks, the AES Show in NYC will host the first Hackathon-style single-day edition of the MATLAB Plugin AES Student Competition, organized by MathWorks and the Audio Engineering Society. Contestants will be asked to create a VST plugin that emulates a real-world audio effect, through improving a provided baseline MATLAB program, with the goal of matching pre-captured test signals. The winning team takes home $2,000. Participation can be both in-person and online. Huge thanks to Prof. Eric Tarr (Hack Audio, Belmont University) for chairing the technical challenge and leading a judging team of audio DSP academics and Industry leaders.
