## Description

LUMINOME – RHYTHM YOU CAN SEE, FEEL, AND HEAR

Luminome is more than a metronome – it’s a sensory musical experience. Designed with precision and minimalism, it transforms beats into both sound and light, creating a unique blend of timing, tone, and color.
Simplicity meets rhythm and light.

CORE FEATURES

	•	High-precision metronome with rhythmic light pulses
	•	Advanced Tap Tempo with real-time sync and adaptive accuracy
        •	Subdivisions based on the overtone series
	•	Minimalist design for distraction-free focus
	•	Frequency-to-color mapping for a synesthetic experience
	•	Cosmic Rhythm Mode for exploring rhythm across light and time

TAP TEMPO: PRECISION AT YOUR FINGERTIPS

At the heart of Luminome is a powerful and highly accurate Tap Tempo engine:
	•	Uses a custom algorithm that learns and refines with each tap
	•	Becomes more precise over time, adapting to your rhythm
	•	The beat starts exactly in sync with your final tap – no delay, no drift

This makes Luminome a natural extension of your internal tempo, perfect for live performance and intuitive beat control.

SUBDIVISIONS BASED ON THE OVERTONE SERIES

Create complex rhythmic patterns with intuitive subdivisions that:
	•	Reflect the natural overtone series in pitch space
	•	Allow you to hear and see harmonic relationships in time
	•	Visualize and feel polyrhythms as layered pulses of light and tone

This feature connects rhythm to musical acoustics, revealing hidden harmonic structures through timing.

NEW: COSMIC RHYTHM MODE

Explore rhythm beyond traditional boundaries:
	•	Set tempo using astronomical units, like beats per day or beats per year
	•	Input frequencies in nanometers to map beats to colors of light
	•	Enable frequency doubling to align each beat with both musical pitch and visible spectrum hues

Rhythm becomes a bridge between music, light, and cosmic cycles.

COLOR MAPPING BASED ON “THE COSMIC OCTAVE”

Luminome includes a unique frequency-to-color system inspired by “The Cosmic Octave” by Norbert Böhm and Hans Cousto (https://www.planetware.de).
This model connects musical tones to natural frequencies, mapping them to colors for a rich visual and sonic experience.

SYNC WITH ABLETON LINK

Stay in perfect time with other apps and devices using Ableton Link:
	•	Sync tempos in real time
	•	Collaborate seamlessly across your music setup
	•	Jam, perform, and explore while staying perfectly in sync

EXPLORE THE SCIENCE OF RHYTHM AND PITCH

Delve into frequency ratios, pitch perception, and the visible spectrum.
Luminome transforms rhythm into a multisensory journey through time, tone, and color.

HEALTH & SAFETY WARNING

This app contains visual elements including flashing lights, which may trigger seizures in individuals with photosensitive epilepsy.
Consult a healthcare professional before use if you have a history of epilepsy or sensitivity to flashing light.

Play it. Feel it. See it. Sync it.
