Synthogy, LLC was founded in October of 2003 by two former Kurzweil engineers (chief sound designer, and senior DSP engineer for the legendary Synthesizer manufacturer). Synthogy shipped its first product, Ivory, in October 2004, which was met with great critical acclaim and commercial success. In October 2005 Ivory 1.5 was released for cross platform support (Mac and Windows). Ivory has been referred to in Keyboard Magazine (Mar. 05) as “the de facto benchmark for virtual pianos." Synthogy released the Italian Grand (Oct. 06) to glowing reviews. “It just begs to be played” wrote one very impressed reviewer.
Synthogy’s goal from inception was to become a leading developer of virtual instrument technology, principally by designing our software instruments to truly be musical instruments. Unlike many music software companies, Synthogy’s founders are able to bring many years of hardware musical instrument design experience to the world of software instruments. In addition to setting new standards for sound quality and realism, the company’s mission was to make software virtual instruments sound and behave like real musical instruments. To achieve this goal, the instruments would need to be musical enough to satisfy the most discerning and accomplished professional musicians. The founders further maintained that if their instruments could be as musically responsive and enjoyable to satisfy the virtuoso performer, then they would also appeal to the lesser accomplished, semi-professional, amateur, and even novice players, as well as home recording enthusiasts.
