Ex Waves And E-MU Systems Audio Research Director Dana Massie has joined Apple Inc. as SoC Audio Architect. Massie has a background of DSP expertise, which it looks that Apple will be taking advantage of as they bolster their audio team with Massie offering as SoC (System on Chip) audio architect.

It’s not known what products Massie will be working on, although Apple used technologies from his previous company Audience as part of the iPhone 4.

Be it consumer or pro, Apple are hiring some top talent right now for their audio development work.
