Functional sound. Sound that creates an impression. We design experiences from both aspects.
We produce UI/UX/DX sounds for software, hardware, facilities, and spaces. We balance functionality, such as operation sounds, notification sounds, completion sounds, warning sounds, and alert sounds, which accurately convey information and status, with musicality that enhances the appeal of products and services. We organize the purpose, target, usage environment, and brand image, and design from the role of each sound. We can handle everything from the production of individual sound effects to the construction of a unified sound system with multiple sounds.

Company information
TONAL WORKS. is a music production and sound design studio based in Tokyo, Osaka, and Fukuoka, Japan. We create sound for a wide range of purposes and media, including advertising, film and video, branding, artist releases, corporate and school anthems, UI/UX sounds for apps, websites, products, and devices, as well as DX sound design for facilities and spatial environments. Our services range from full-scale music production to short-form branding sounds such as sonic logos, along with interface sounds, notifications, alerts, warning sounds, and auditory signals. We design sound to communicate information clearly, shape brand perception, and enhance the overall user experience. By carefully defining each project’s objectives and target audience, we bring the sound you need to life—fast and at the highest quality. We work with clients throughout Japan and provide tailored support across planning, production, recording, mixing, and audio finishing. If emotion-driven work such as artist music production is a gasoline-powered car, and logic-driven work such as acoustic research is an EV, our strength lies in a hybrid workflow that combines both approaches according to the needs and timing of each project. By balancing emotional appeal with logical functionality, we design sound that helps achieve each project’s purpose.
