Synthogy, LLC was founded in October of 2003 by two former Kurzweil engineers (chief sound designer, and senior DSP engineer for the legendary Synthesizer manufacturer). Synthogy shipped its first product, Ivory, in October 2004, which was met with great critical acclaim and commercial success. In October 2005 Ivory 1.5 was released for cross platform support (Mac and Windows).

Ivory has been referred to in Keyboard Magazine (Mar. 05) as "the de facto benchmark for virtual pianos."
