History

Sonic Foundry was founded in 1991 and was headquartered in Madison, Wisconsin.[1] The company sold Vegas Pro and Sound Forge, along with other programs (including Acid) to Sony Pictures Digital for US$18 million in 2003,[2] which led to the creation of Sony Creative Software.[3]

As of August 2022, the company produced Mediasite, Video Solutions, and Global Learning Exchange (GLX), and had announced a product called Vidable.[4]

Its four brands included Mediasite, Video Solutions (formerly Mediasite Events), Vidable, and Global Learning Exchange (GLX)[5]

In January 2024, Sonic Foundry announced the sale of Mediasite and Video Solutions to Enghouse Systems Ltd. taking effect February 2024.[6]

Sonic Foundry filed for receivership in March of 2024,[7] but was liquidated in December of 2025,[citation needed] ending the company's existence.
