Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJuan Burred is a Paris-based researcher, software developer and musician who builds machine learning tools for sound and music creation, analysis and search. With a PhD from Technische Universität Berlin and research stints at IRCAM, Audionamix and UC Berkeley’s CNMAT, he specializes in source separation, sound synthesis and content-based audio retrieval. He founded Anemond to distribute Factorsynth and Factoid—ML-driven toolkits that deconstruct and resynthesize sound—and now serves as Co-Founder & Chief AI Officer at a new venture. Over 8+ years of professional experience and a decade of freelance R&D, he consults for artists, institutions and companies to translate cutting-edge audio research into usable tools. Classically trained as a pianist and active in two bands, he blends rigorous signal-processing expertise with practical musical insight, often designing methods explicitly aimed at creative practice rather than just benchmark performance.
