Dear Karlheinz, I think you need a few more parameters to the definition.
My opinion that there more options to consider, not only recognition, but also differentiation, flexibility, involvement, expirience, consistence and personality.
Hi Birgitte,
this is a definition of the term “Sound Identity”. What you mean is the process of developing Sound Branding Elements (->). In that sense you’re absolutely right. Moreover you should add technical limitations and cultural considerations.
Cheers
