Surfing into a subscription based product

In the dynamic realm of audio technology, Waves Audio stands as a pioneer, boasting the world's largest catalog of industry-leading audio plugins and powerful AI mixing tools. When tasked with the challenge of transforming Waves.com from a traditional e-commerce platform, operating on a "purchase an audio plugin license" model, into a thriving subscription-based product, our team at muze eagerly took on the challenge.





The birth of waves creative access: a paradigm Shift

The focal point of this project was the conceptualization and execution of "Waves Creative Access," a comprehensive package bundling the myriad audio plugin products into a singular, streamlined subscription service. This strategic shift not only aligned with market trends but also catered to evolving user preferences, offering a more flexible and cost-effective solution.













The art and science of design transformation

The transformation process embarked upon a multi-step journey, necessitating meticulous planning and thoughtful considerations. The overarching goal was to upscale the user experience and elevate the visual appearance of the website while ensuring a smooth transition for existing users accustomed to the traditional model.

Our design team meticulously redefined the user experience (UX), crafted a seamless user flow, and designed a marketing user journey funnel. This intricate process was not just about aesthetics; it was a strategic move to increase user engagement, enhance satisfaction, and, ultimately, boost conversion rates.









Working hand-in-hand with waves marketing team

Maintaining a seamless design process required a harmonious collaboration with the Waves marketing team, facilitating fast and effective communication, as it involved not only a shift in the website's functionality but also a change in how the product was positioned and communicated to the audience.

This collaboration was not just about aesthetics but about aligning the visual elements with marketing strategies to create a cohesive and compelling user experience.









Shaping the future of audio technology

By seamlessly transitioning Waves.com to Waves Creative Access, we not only adapted to market demands but also set a new standard for user-centric design and strategic collaboration.

As the audio industry continues to evolve, we are proud to be at the forefront, driving innovation and shaping the future of audio technology. Waves Creative Access stands as a testament to our ability to blend design excellence with strategic thinking, creating experiences that resonate with users and drive business success.
