Native Instruments CEO Nick Williams<\/strong> announced today that they – along with iZotope, Plugin Alliance, and Brainworx – are being acquired by inMusic<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

“To our friends, artists, partners, collaborators, and community:<\/p>\n

After three months of hard work, and three months of extraordinary loyalty from you, I am pleased to share that a definitive agreement has now been signed for Native Instruments to be acquired by inMusic.<\/p>\n

Two iconic music technology companies, with decades of shared respect for this industry and the people who make music in it, are coming together to build something greater than either could alone. Our NKS hardware and MPC Editions collaboration last year was the beginning of this story. Today, we look ahead to a common future.<\/p>\n

inMusic has spent three decades building and growing the brands that creators rely on every day \u2014 Akai Professional, Moog Music, Denon DJ, Numark, Rane, M-Audio and more. They understand what it means to build tools that musicians love. And they understand what Native Instruments means to our customers and community.”<\/p>\n

This dramatically expands the inMusic family of companies, which already includes Akai, Alesis, Denon, M-Audio, Moog, Numark, Rane and others.<\/p>\n

What does this mean for the future of Native Instruments, iZotope, Plugin Alliance, & Brainworx?<\/p>\n

For the near term, it sounds like it will be business as usual.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur commitment is simple: continued investment across all brands and product lines, and a long-term focus on innovation that serves creators at every level,” notes Jack O\u2019Donnell, CEO of inMusic. “The tools you rely on today will keep working, and the tools you will rely on tomorrow are actively being built.\u201d<\/p>\n

The acquisition is expected to be completed within a few weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
