Making Accessible Audio Software
Perspectives of a blind music producer
Did you know that there are very few pieces of audio software and hardware that are really usable by blind people? Especially if you want to go deep into sound design, rather than just browse presets.
In this talk Adam Wilson will be supporting a blind music producer - Trey Culver - with very specific knowledge and experience with regard to making electronic music using existing tools and software.
They will talk about the actual experiences of a blind beat maker, and his perspective on how to make your software truly accessible and usable by blind and partially sighted music producers.

Adam Wilson
Founder
Node Audio
A seasoned music producer and programmer turned audio developer, with a passion for microtonality.
Adam got into audio software development in 2014, when he first became aware of microtonality. Realising the lack of intuitive software to aid with microtonal composition, he pivoted from server-side web development into audio. This also allowed him to fuse his two lifelong passions into one career path: music production and programming.
Adam founded Node Audio initially to release his first iOS app, "Entonal Tuner" and it has since become both an audio software consultancy and a platform for releasing audio plugins. Entonal Studio was released in 2022.
