Hello all,

Just a quick note to update everyone on the status of the Luminth project.  We have around half of the Luminth peripherals built, and Luminth Orbiter is approaching gold status.

We have sent out the Kickstarter surveys, and are looking forward to delivering the Luminth and Luminth Orbiter very soon.

Hello all,

We have two exciting pieces of news to share from the Luminth project.

The PCBs have arrived. We are currently uploading the firmware to the boards and testing them out with Luminth Orbiter.

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.

Thanks for reading!

The Luminth Kickstarter campaign was successfully funded last night! Luminth production will begin as soon as the Kickstarter funds clear. We’ll be documenting the process here at nthsynth.com, and also on Facebook, Twitter, and Tumblr.

For those that missed the Kickstarter, we have created a Luminth PayPal checkout page. All purchases will be included in the initial Luminth production run.

The Luminth Generative Music System is available for purchase on Kickstarter.com from now until June 13, 2013.

Click, turn, push+turn. Use the Luminth to generate melodies, percussive grooves, and ambient soundscapes. Make dramatic changes to the music with a single click. Dive deeper to make refined, subtle adjustments. Or let the software work autonomously to create music that morphs over time.

Luminth Orbiter can be used to:

• Generate new melodic and rhythmic ideas
• Play relaxing music at the end of a long day
• Create ambient sounds for a space or gathering
• Foster a child’s interest in creating music
• Make soundtracks for film or video

The Luminth is a minimalist USB control peripheral. To use the Luminth, simply click, turn, and push+turn. The Luminth changes color with the music.

Luminth Orbiter is a generative music software application. Make dramatic changes to the music with a single click. Dive deeper to make refined, subtle adjustments. Or, let Orbiter work autonomously to create music that morphs over time.

The Luminth is the best way to control Luminth Orbiter software, but Orbiter is fully functional with or without the Luminth.

The Luminth and Luminth Orbiter will be available for purchase at 12:01AM EST on Thursday, May 16. Check nthsynth.com on Thursday for a link to the Kickstarter project page and purchasing information.
