The Brand of the Year Award honours and celebrates the contribution one brand has made to the audio and music production world in 2016. We are very pleased to announce that the winner of the Pro Tools Expert Brand Of The Year 2016 is iZotope. 

During November we asked you to nominate companies for the Pro Tools Expert Brand of the Year 2016. The aim was to find one brand that in your opinion has excelled in terms of innovation, delivering on promises and customer support - in other words a good all round brand. 

On the end of November the 5 companies that received the most votes from you, the Pro Tools Expert community were...

1. Exponential Audio
2. iZotope
3. Slate Digital
4. Two Notes
5. Universal Audio

During December we asked you to vote for your favourite from this shortlist and iZotope received the highest number of votes. It was a close contest to the end but ultimately iZotope came out on top. Melissa Misicka, Brand and Corporate Marketing Director told us...

We're thrilled to have been voted Brand of the Year by the Pro Tools Expert community. Our customers are at the heart of everything we do as a company, and to be recognized for values that we hold so dear is an honor. Many thanks to everyone who cast their vote for iZotope!

We were delighted that the shortlist was made up from a range of small, medium and large companies in the pro audio industry sector. Add to that the fact that the Pro Tools Expert team had nothing to do with either the selection of the shortlist or the choice of the winner. The brands that made the shortlist and the voting of the winner were completely undertaken by you, the Pro Tools Expert community, which makes this truly the Pro Tools Expert Brand Of The Year Award.
