What it does

The smallest vocabulary for an instrument that listens.

Lume is one sine oscillator, one sub, a glide, an asymmetric pitch bend, a touch of drive, a level. That's it. The point of a synth this small isn't what it can do — it's what it makes you do with your hands. Pressure becomes drive. Y-axis becomes bend. The keyboard becomes the patch.

We built Lume first because it's the design flagship. The custom-drawn dials, the oscilloscope-clean waveform, the particle keyboard footer — these set the visual language for everything else in the Quiver catalogue. Open Lume on an Osmose or a Push 3 and you can hear immediately what the rest of the lineup is aiming at.

MPE routing

Per-finger, by default.

Every gesture from your controller maps to a parameter that already makes musical sense — no patching, no mod matrix, no setup screen.

Pitch bend
Per-finger pitch, asymmetric up and down, with glide between notes.
Pressure
Drive and amplitude. Lean into a note for grit; lift for a clean tone.
Y-axis (timbre)
Bend depth. Slide forward to push the bend further; back to settle.
Release
Per-voice fade — soft releases bloom, sharp releases cut.
