Dear customers,
At the beginning of 2025, we began a major overhaul of our website. Significant updates were made not only to the visual design but also to the site’s security. Our main focus has been on improving clarity and making it easier to navigate our product offerings and technical documentation. We’re currently finalizing a set of articles about the synthesizers we use in our studio. We hope the revamped website enhances your experience and proves valuable to you.
We would like to inform you below about the key changes in each of the main sections:
Products
You’ll now find links to two dedicated pages: New Products and Full Products. In the Full Products section, we’ve introduced a new MP3 player, allowing you to browse and listen to our complete collection of demo tracks (320kbps bitrate), sorted alphabetically. This page also enables filtering by parameters such as instrument type, product name, discount, or price.
Sale
The Sale category has undergone a major visual and structural update. Products are now clearly organized by synthesizer and sampler types, making it easier for you to find discounted items for your instrument equipment.
Support
The Support section has been improved for easier navigation. You’ll now find a clear and concise FAQ and an updated Info section featuring the latest details about our product lines.
Downloads
This section has been completely redesigned with a focus on usability. Content is now sorted alphabetically and presented in a modern layout. You can easily download PDF documents related to specific product collections. Each file name includes the relevant synthesizer type to help streamline navigation. These updates were guided by your feedback, and we hope they make it faster and simpler to find essential information—such as Sound Program Lists and more.
News
This section has primarily undergone a visual update, which includes several new photos from our long-term collaboration on various operas and theater performances.
Community
The Community section also features a new visual design. While we considered adding a customer forum, we’ve decided to postpone this due to security concerns. Protecting our website and customer accounts remains our top priority. Unfortunately, keeping up with today’s increasingly complex cybersecurity threats demands significant effort and investment. We appreciate your understanding.
Services
The Services section has also been redesigned. We’ve added a new Testimonials subsection, where you can read feedback and experiences from our customers. We believe this collection of positive reviews will continue to grow as we work hard to deliver quality and value.
Articles
As mentioned earlier, this section will be gradually expanded over the coming weeks. It will include a comprehensive series of articles about different types of synthesizers and samplers. These were created by the entire Art of Sound team, who’ve combined practical insights with valuable technical knowledge. If these articles help you gain new insights or deepen your understanding, they’ve fulfilled their purpose — and we’ll be delighted to welcome you back to our site.
New Products
In the coming months, we’ll also be expanding our range with new sound programs. As always, we focus on top-tier quality and meticulous detail in their development. We hope they’ll provide fresh inspiration for your musical creativity.
Best regards,
Your Art of Sound Team
