> Precision Reason Rack Extensions, acoustic reference instruments, and audio DSP software by Edward Boraas.

Edward Boraas is an independent software developer and digital signal processing (DSP) engineer designing precision audio processors, synthesizers, and modular utilities for Reason Studios' Reason DAW and Reason Rack Plugin. All audio engines are implemented in pure standard ISO C++17 without external runtime frameworks, featuring 32-bit floating-point computation, zero-latency polyphase oversampling, cascaded analog-modeled filter topologies, and deep modular Control Voltage (CV) integration.

## Products & Rack Extensions

- [Kalibrus](https://audio.boraas.ca/devices/kalibrus/): Precision Acoustic Reference, Expressive Noise Synthesizer & Modular CV Source. Three-in-one laboratory-grade acoustic reference, playable noise synthesizer voice, and modular CV modulation engine. Combines a 32-bit floating-point Xoshiro256++ core, cascaded 24 dB/octave Butterworth filter topology, and 2x polyphase oversampling with optional transport synchronization, stereo audio passthrough and linear summing inputs, True Stereo Balance Law, 20-segment calibrated RMS/Peak telemetry at 60 FPS, 1V/Oct keyboard pitch tracking, dynamic velocity sensitivity, Mod Wheel passband narrowing, comprehensive rear CV I/O with continuous Noise and S&H CV out, and 35 curated presets (27 organized across 5 specialized categories, plus 8 instant quick starter patches).
