Audio Engineering Society (AES) Student Competition: MATLAB Plugin

The Audio Engineering Society (AES) Student Competition: MATLAB Plugin Hackathon provides students with an opportunity to challenge their signal processing skills along with their wits and creativity to design a new kind of audio production VST plugin using MATLAB. The competition will be held as a hackathon as part of the AES Europe 2024 Convention from 15-17 June 2024, with student teams eligible to participate in-person or remotely during the timeframe.

The hackathon task will be announced at the event, and participating students and teams will be provided access to supplemental materials including test data, code baselines, or reference papers at that time. Participants will need to fulfill the coding challenge criteria and submit their code along with the required documentation. Submissions will be assessed and shortlisted teams will be selected to present their work with the audio engineering community for a chance to win cash and software prizes.

For students aspiring to be audio developers, this constitutes an opportunity to learn, make connections with industry, receive feedback from technical experts, and become an active part of the AES community.
