Engineer Andrew Robertson is saving drummers across the country from the tyranny of the click track by liberating bands to drive the tempo of their live performances.
Andrew Robertson is a Computer Engineer working at Queen Mary, University of London on music signal processing. He’s engineered a software package that allows bands to liberate themselves from the tyranny of a click track in live performances, setting them free to drive the tempo of their music to the response of the crowd and still keep their layered backing tracks in time with the beat.
‘Born to Engineer – Andrew Robertson’ is the fourth film in the series Duck Rabbit produced for the ERA Foundation as part of a campaign to attract young people into engineering education and careers.
