AES student technical paper award coordinator Rob Maher has announced that Márton Marschall has been named the recipient of this year’s Award for his paper "Robustness Of A Mixed-Order Ambisonics Microphone Array For Sound Field Reproduction", co-authored with Sylvain Favrot and Jörg Buchholz.

The Award will be presented on Thursday, April 26 at the Opening Ceremonies at the Novotel Budapest Congress & World Trade Center. Marschall will present his paper at 10AM on Saturday, April 28.

A native of Budapest, Márton Marschall, received a diploma in electrical engineering from the Budapest University of Technology and Economics in 2006, and his MSc degree in engineering acoustics from the Technical University of Denmark in 2008. He then joined the Centre for Applied Hearing Research at the Technical University of Denmark, where he is currently a Ph.D student under the guidance of Professor Torsten Dau.

As part of his Ph.D project, he is working on recreating realistic acoustic scenes for hearing research and for the evaluation of communication devices, such as hearing instruments and mobile phones. His research interests include virtual acoustics, spatial hearing and models of auditory signal processing and perception. The Award also makes Mr. Marschall’s manuscript eligible for publication consideration in the Journal of the Audio Engineering Society.

Melodyne editor, with its Direct Note Access technology, makes possible what had previously been considered impossible: access to individual notes in polyphonic audio material. Correct wrong notes in a piano recording; change the chords in a guitar accompaniment after the recording is over; refashion a sample lick. Only Melodyne editor gives you the freedom to work like this with audio. And allows you to do things you could only dream of doing before.

Melodyne editor will change the way you work with audio. The note-based approach and intuitive operation of Melodyne editor will soon seem so natural to you and so much a matter of course that you will no longer regard audio as something fixed and given but quite simply as music. As music you can shape and refashion virtually at will. To correct and optimize or fully restructure in order to make new ideas reality. This is how we picture thefuture of audio editing. And with Melodyne editor, this future is yours already today.

It is important to mention that Celemony Melodyne prize was sponsored by Music Marketing Canada.
