    Pushing the boundaries of DJing by blending professional audio tools with VR accessibility.

    As Audio Programmer, I built custom CDJ and Mixer components in C++, recreating the feel of pro DJ hardware inside an interactive environment.
    The system supported multiple audio outputs (two physical + one spatial in-game), track import from local storage, and over 20 real-time effects, from EQs and filters to reverb and distortion. I also developed pitch and tempo tools, plus custom audio analysis algorithms for BPM and key detection.
    To expand on this, I created a music mini-game powered by MIDI data, combining rhythm mechanics with creative audio manipulation for a playful element.
