Adimuse
The birth of the project
This project was born when I started to learn the recorder on my own. It is only my second instrument, so I had a hard time learning. My computing skills were going to help me.
I started by making a simplified score editor which put the fingering under each note.
After adding a few wind instruments, we wanted to share this tool with all music lover by making it available online free of charge. So, we worked on the tool to go from a simplified amateur tool to a tool which is more complete, more intuitive and more sophisticated.
Today, this tool is used by several thousand people!
The project
The idea is to have a score editor which is both complete and easy to use, allowing each musician, beginner or professional, to use it.
For beginners, this means useful features for learning an instrument, whether it is fingering display or pulsation under the score, the time-proportional display, precautionary alteration, or complementary modules to work his listening or his fingering knowledge...
Adimuse is also a music-sharing tool, with the ability to publish scores, view scores published by other users, and create private groups with shared scores.
To be used by everybody, everywhere, Adimuse runs on web navigator, with no installation required.
My role in this project
In this project, I have a dual role: co-developer and music consultant.

MixMap
The birth of the project
This project was born within my music group. Our sound engineer used to prepare the mixing desk in advance. For this, he had to:
- Pre-configure the mixing desk thanks to the demo version of the application Soundcraft-ui24,
- Prepare the corresponding input/output table on a spreadsheet so that the wiring can be carried out on site,
- Draw the corresponding scene plan.
The project
The tool is an application that the sound engineer used to prepare the event and save time on site:
The user enters settings data of the mixing desk in an optimised way for pre-configuration (inputs list, corresponding musicians, outputs list, corresponding configuration, ...).
Musicians are automatically added on a virtual scene plan. The user has only to position them where he wants.
After all the settings have been entered, the tool generates the inputs/outputs table for wiring, the scene plan for all the team and the configuration file to upload to the mixing desk.
The user can memorise configurations and upload them in the tool to begin with an existing configuration.
My role in this project
In this project, I was responsible for all the technical aspects of the software, and we worked as a team to define the aesthetics and the specifications of the software.

Corp-TV
The birth of the project
This project is the response to a request from a company which use display screen in its reception halls. The company was dissatisfied with the solution it had bought, it judged its old solution not flexible enough and too expensive.
The project
Information screens in companies work often with a video which is read over and over on the screen.
The aim of the project is to be able to change remotely the display with adding, removing, or modifying a part of the loop without having to rewrite all the video. Elementary bricks of the loop can be a video, an image, or a web page.
My solution is to use a Raspberry pi (mini computer) to show elements of a list over and over which can be remotely entered from a web page available on every computer connected on the same network.
The advantage of my solution: unit bricks in the loop can be shown at only certain times of the day.
My role in this project
In this project, I was responsible for the functional aspect and design to meet the company's needs and I have received help in setting up a secure infrastructure.
