SONUSCORE CREATOR CONTEST 2026
– THE WINNERS

The Sonuscore Creator Contest 2026 has at last come to an end! You’ve voted on the most riveting videos & compositons. Now we’re excited to introduce to you the winning compositions. Congratulations!
1st Place – 41.3% – Peter Harket

“Sonuscore are masters at leveraging the computer to augment their instruments to become something more than their physical counterparts. The Orchestra Complete is such a great example, as it transcends what it is trying to emulate by making the orchestra an instrument in of itself.”

2nd Place – 23.1% – Jonas Kerda

“In me, the idea is born — and with Sonuscore’s instruments, it becomes sound.”

3rd Place – 13.7% – Julie Jamieson

“I’m honored to have won third place in Sonuscore’s music creator contest! The virtual instruments Sonuscore creates are inspiring and are of the highest quality out-of-the-box.”

The Contest

Participants had to create a short video that showcases one or more Sonuscore instruments in a creative way. Whether it was a quick idea to picture, a live performance, a behind-the-scenes screen capture, or something completely unexpected – what matters is how they presented themselves and their Sonuscore instrument.

The video should highlight Sonuscore in action, musically and visually. It can be based on your own composition, but it didn’t had to be. They might demonstrated a workflow, shared a creative trick, built a cue to a scene, or simply created something fun and engaging.

The video needed to be in 16×9  or 9×16 format, at least in HD quality, and 30–90 seconds long.

We welcomed every kind of composition style, to simply create a video that puts at least one Sonuscore product in the spotlight (including our free products), and brings an own creative angle – cinematic, educational, playful, or anything in between.

The entry compositions did not need to be the composition for the winners recording session.
