I build open tools for DJs and audio hackers — hardware and software.

An open-source Digital Vinyl System: control digital decks with real turntables and timecode vinyl, without the locked-down hardware.

• 🦀 Clean-room timecode engine in Rust — no_std, allocation-free, real-time safe; locks absolute position ~33 ms after a needle drop
• 📀 An open, freely-pressable timecode format — the spec is CC-BY-SA with a royalty-free implementation grant, so anyone can press or decode it. No vendor offers that.
• 🔌 Open hardware (CERN-OHL-S) that doubles as a generic class-compliant USB audio interface
• ⚖️ GPL-3.0 · CERN-OHL-S-2.0 · CC-BY-SA-4.0

Status: v0.1.0-alpha — engine + CLI working, validated against a synthetic signal corpus; real-vinyl testing and custom hardware are next. Try it: releases · the spec

My label for handmade test & measurement gear and electronics projects:

• 🌡️ PT100 Simulator — handheld RTD temperature simulator: ESP32 + OLED + rotary encoder, precision film resistors, −200 °C to +200 °C per IEC 60751, 18650-powered with USB-C charging. Built by hand, firmware in C++ (PlatformIO). (repo going public once it's polished)
• More on the bench: embedded builds around ESP32/Arduino, a vinyl BPM counter, and the analog front ends feeding into openDVS Rev A

• k3s-homelab — home Kubernetes on k3s + Flux GitOps, deployed via GitHub Actions

• Real-time audio and DSP (the fun kind of hard)
• Vinyl and turntablism — keeping the feel, opening the tech
• Electronics: phono stages, converters, PCBs that hum only when they should
• Test gear you can trust because you built and calibrated it yourself
• Open licensing done properly — copyleft + open hardware + open formats
