Olinthus

Olinthus is a young company based in Los Angeles, specializing in the creation of creative hardware and musical products that you won't see anywhere else! Olinthus designs bits of code and circuitry that combine artistic expression, technical innovation, and original design.

The brand was founded by two experienced professionals in the sector: a highly skilled product engineer and a creative marketing manager, both of whom had worked for leading brands such as Strymon, Line6 and many others.
Their mission? To design "wow" products that are reliable, powerful, and out of the ordinary.
The technical approach relies on high-end analog circuits, advanced algorithms and highly personal concepts.
At Olinthus, we handle code, design and humor without compromise!

The brand is young, ambitious and rooted in industrial and musical experience, where everything is optimized down to the smallest detail.
So, what does Olinthus mean? Olinthus is a spelling variant of Olynthus, a genus of Neotropical butterflies in the Lycaenidae family. Olinthus is also the first name of Gilbert Gregory Olinthus, an English mathematician who combined his love of mathematics with a strong interest in music. Finally, it comes from the Greek word Olynthos, meaning "wild fruit." Quite a name!
