Sound Particles, a leading innovator in audio software solutions, announces an initiative to support women in the audio industry.

To promote gender equality and empower women pursuing careers in audio engineering and production, Sound Particles will donate 20% of its sales campaign under International Women’s Day to We Make Noise, a nonprofit organisation dedicated to advancing women in audio. By providing mentorship, technology training, and networking opportunities for women in audio, We Make Noise aims to break down barriers and create a more equitable and inclusive environment for women in this industry.

As a company deeply rooted in the audio community and known for its software being used by all major Hollywood studios and world class audio professionals and musicians, they recognise the importance of diversity and inclusion within the industry. Despite some progress in recent years, women remain underrepresented in audio-related fields: only 3% of producers, 13% of songwriters, and 22% of artists are women, according to the 2023 Report “Inclusion in the Recording Studio?” by USC Annenberg Inclusion Initiative and Spotify. Through this donation to We Make Noise, Sound Particles aims to provide tangible support and resources to address this disparity.

“We are honored to make this donation to We Make Noise to support women in audio,” said Nuno Fonseca, CEO and founder of Sound Particles. “At Sound Particles, we believe that diversity drives innovation, and we are dedicated to creating a more inclusive audio industry.”

Sound Particles is currently offering a 30% discount on all products with the discount code “WEMAKENOISE” on its website, until March 9th, 2024. To access this campaign, enter here.
