Accessibility Statement

We believe that professional audio tools should be available to every musician and producer, regardless of ability. Accessibility is not an afterthought — it is built into our development process from the start.

We continually audit, test, and improve the GO2AUDIO website and plugin documentation to meet or exceed accepted accessibility standards.

We aim to conform to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA as published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines define how to make digital content perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust for people with a wide range of disabilities.

We also consider best practices from WAI-ARIA 1.2 and ATAG 2.0 where applicable to our authoring tools and documentation.

The following accessibility features are implemented across the GO2AUDIO website:

• —Semantic HTML5 markup with proper heading hierarchy (h1 → h2 → h3)
• —ARIA landmark regions: <main>, <nav>, <footer>, <aside>
• —All interactive elements (buttons, links, inputs) are fully keyboard-accessible via Tab and Enter/Space
• —Visible focus indicators on all focusable elements
• —Skip-to-main-content link available at the top of every page
• —Color contrast ratios of 4.5:1 or higher for body text (WCAG AA)
• —All meaningful images include descriptive alt text; decorative images use alt=""
• —No content relies on color alone to convey information
• —Animated elements respect the prefers-reduced-motion media query
• —Responsive layout that adapts from 320px to 4K screens without horizontal scrolling
• —Font sizes defined in relative units (rem/em) to honor browser zoom settings
• —External links are labelled with accessible names and open-in-new-tab warnings where applicable

Our VST3 / AU plugins run inside your DAW environment. Plugin GUIs are rendered via hardware-accelerated WebView components, which have inherent accessibility limitations imposed by the DAW host and the WebView2 / WKWebView bridges.

Within those constraints, we have implemented:

• —High-contrast dark UI with a minimum 4.5:1 contrast ratio for all labels and values
• —All knob and slider values are visible as numeric readouts — no value is communicated by position alone
• —Parameter values can be entered directly via double-click text input on every knob and slider
• —Keyboard-accessible preset browsing (arrow keys to step through presets)
• —Lock icons and state-change indicators use both color and shape to communicate state
• —All visual feedback (meters, gain reduction, level) includes numeric or textual equivalents

We are transparent about areas where full conformance has not yet been achieved:

• —Plugin GUIs embedded in DAW hosts are not directly accessible to screen readers — this is a fundamental limitation of the VST/AU plugin architecture
• —Hero background video is decorative and does not require audio description; it is hidden from assistive technologies via aria-hidden
• —Third-party services (payment checkout, external links) have their own accessibility policies outside our control
• —Complex animated knob renders in the website's plugin preview sections are marked aria-hidden and do not expose interactive controls to AT

We test accessibility using a combination of automated and manual methods:

• —Automated: axe-core, Lighthouse, and Pa11y CI checks on each deployment
• —Manual keyboard-only navigation testing across all pages
• —Screen reader testing with NVDA (Windows) and VoiceOver (macOS)
• —Color contrast verification using WCAG Color Contrast Checker
• —Zoom testing up to 400% viewport scale

We actively welcome accessibility feedback. If you encounter a barrier on our website or with our plugins, or if you find that content is not accessible in a way that meets your needs, please contact us:

If you are not satisfied with our response to an accessibility complaint, you have the right to contact your national or regional accessibility enforcement body. In the EU, this is typically your country's national authority responsible for monitoring compliance with the Web Accessibility Directive (EU 2016/2102).
