I am a Professor with the Centre for Digital Music at Queen Mary University of London, where I lead the intelligent sound engineering research team. I have published over 150 peer-reviewed papers, including over 40 in premier academic journals. I am co-author of the textbook Audio Effects: Theory, Implementation and Application. I am a Fellow and former President of the Audio Engineering Society, the leading professional society dedicated to supporting the field of audio engineering and its allied arts. I am a Royal Academy of Engineering Enterprise Fellow and have extensive experience commercializing research. I frequently consult with companies in the audio space, or others in need of audio-related expertise.

I have served as an expert witness in major cases related to audio technology and patent litigation.

I am Entrepreneur-in-Residence for Science and Engineering at QMUL. I have co-founded four high-tech spin-out companies. LandR, who provide intelligent and automatic online music production services, Waveshaper, who deliver intelligent AI-based audio effects, RoEx, who provide AI music mixing services and most recently, Nemisindo, offering sound design services based around innovative procedural audio technology.

The audio engineering research team explores a wide range of topics in music production, psychoacoustics, sound synthesis, digital audio effects, audio signal processing and related subjects. A major focus of our work is concerned with the development of intelligent signal processing for sound engineering, to assist both amateurs and professionals in the technical aspects of audio production.
