HOFA GmbH is a German manufacturer of audio plugins and acoustic modules as well as a provider of audio engineering courses and a recording studio since 1988.

Founded in 2001 by industrial designer and synthesizer fan Urs Heckmann as a one-man show, the Berlin-based audio software company u-he has since evolved into a tightly knit team of employees, active associates and 3rd-party contractors – with ambitious plans.

Known primarily for Zebra2 and Diva, u-he has released several other successful products over the years, and has contributed freeware plug-ins to popular music technology magazines. Despite their underlying complexity, u-he synths and effects are widely acclaimed for their ease of use.

The u-he team has been exploring new technologies for vastly improved analogue synth and delay emulation, as well as various "physical modelling" approaches to acoustic instruments and effects. All valuable groundwork for the Zebra3 project and other spin-off products - watch this space!
Especially well known for the Zebra2 and Diva software synthesizers, u-he has developed several other successful products over the last decade, and regularly contributes freeware to popular magazines (available as download or on cover discs).

Despite their underlying complexity, u-he synths and effects are widely acclaimed for their ease of use. This is often attributed to Urs Heckmann's background as industrial designer. Heckmann sees the seemingly unconventional decision to start an audio software company as a direct result of his equal love for industrial design and for synthesizers.

Most recently, u-he has been exploring concepts for analogue synthesizers, and the first results can be heard in the software synths ACE / Bazille (audio-rate modulation paths) as well as Diva, Presswerk and Satin (accurate simulation of electronic circuitry). Hive is u-he's first foray into the world of low CPU dance-oriented synths.

Audio Ease are a group of music- and audio software developers based in Utrecht the Netherlands.
They are best known for Altiverb, the first and highest regarded convolution reverb. Convolution reverb creates reverb based on samples of the real world: Sydney Opera House, the Gol Gumbaz of india, or the company bathroom.

Speakerphone is a much younger product seeking to be the definitive speaker simulator. It not only holds samples of virtually every speaker imaginable, but also combines it with environmental sounds, static, sirens etc, to complete the image.

Snapper is newest. A small idea with big consequences. Basically: sound files in the Mac Finder are never again closed. Quick-look on steroids.

When Audio Ease is not tweaking a filter or fixing their backup server, they are likely out there sampling a bus station or an antique telephone.
