Sonic Foundry Sound Forge is a sound design and editing program for Windows, originally developed by Sonic Foundry.
Product history[]
Macromedia licensed Sound Forge 3.0 to bundle with Windows versions of Macromedia Director Multimedia Studio in February 1995. The Macintosh version of the suite included Macromedia's own SoundEdit 16.[1]
Sonic Foundry Sound Forge XP was a basic version of the application that was bundled or sold at a lower price.[2] Sound Forge XP 4.x was included with Windows versions of Macromedia Director 7 Shockwave Internet Studio in December 1998, and Director 8 Shockwave Studio in March 2000. The Macintosh counterparts were bundled with BIAS Peak LE.[3][4]
In 2003, Sony Pictures Digital acquired Sonic Foundry's product line and development team, forming Sony Creative Software, which published Sony Sound Forge.[5] Sony then sold the product line, including Sound Forge, to Magix in May 2016.[6]
