I’m available for short-term consultation about your audio signal processing needs. 

 

I especially like working with small teams and start-ups that need audio expertise. While your team is busy putting out fires, I can help with research, advice, and clear explanations.

 

I’m an Audio DSP/Algorithm Engineer who has worked with some of the foremost experts in the field on a wide range of audio-related projects. I have a track record of creating intellectual property, designing award-winning products, and helping start-ups obtain funding and get acquired.

 

When time-to-market is crucial, I like to

  • Ask unasked questions
  • Check unspoken assumptions
  • Identify root problems
  • Avoid reinventing the wheel

Most of my consulting work is part-time for a few weeks or months. If I can point you in the right direction during the initial free call, that’s great! And if I can’t, I may know someone who can. 

 

Let me know how I can help. Email me at earl@orphiclabs.com.
