The core of the app is a multi-timbral step sequencer with an engaging interface. We added simple controls for timbre, tempo, scale, delay and filter parameters. Creating a melody only requires a couple of taps.

We have received the final production prototypes for the Luminth enclosures, and have placed the bulk order for the acrylic parts.  Our good friends at Griffen Hollow Studio produced the NTH Music Synthesizer enclosures, and will be manufacturing the enclosures for the Luminth as well.
