A Smarter way to Learn and play music

LUMI is the illuminated keyboard and app that lets anyone be more musical in minutes. Pick a song and play along by following lights. You’ll be amazed at how quickly you progress.

PLAY

Lights, Color, ACTION

LUMI is a keyboard that lights up under your fingers. It’s an app that guides you every step of the way. And it’s a song library too, so you can start out with a tune you already know.

All three parts work together so you can:

	Play PLAY great songs, note by note, just by following the lights — in your own time, at your own pace
JAM JAM along to songs, just like you’re in the band. The chords and notes light up, so you can improvise in real time
	LEARN LEARN music basics not only by playing, but also through fast in-app lessons

A Keyboard like no other

LUMI takes music from black and white to technicolor. You can see it the moment you turn on LUMI Keys, the brightest RGB-illuminated keyboard ever made.

FULLY ILLUMINATED KEYS

Glowing in the dark and in the light, LUMI Keys is the brightest illuminated keyboard ever made. It introduces Brightkey technology, which builds on years of research and innovation at ROLI.
COMPACT YET PLAYABLE

LUMI’s keys are more playable than those of any other keyboard its size, with 92% of the plunge depth of a standard piano key and nearly the same dimensions.
UNIQUELY SIZED KEYS

LUMI’s keys are a unique size of DS 5.5 (⅞ the width of a standard piano key) that is better sized for the average human hand. This small change in dimension makes a big difference for most players!
MODULAR AND EXPANDABLE

The first modular keyboard, LUMI Keys expands with a snap and a click. It features ROLI’s DNA connector technology, which lets you magnetically connect multiple LUMI keyboards.

An app that makes playing fun

LUMI Keys is powered by the LUMI app. It’s where you pick songs and decide how you want to play them. No matter what you choose, you’ll have fun as you learn.

100s OF SONGS

Choose from 100s of songs from pop to rock to classical. More songs you know and love will be added every month.
PLAY AND JAM

Learn to play songs note by note just by following the lights on the keyboard and the colors in the app. Or jam along to the songs in Jam Mode: the keyboard lights up with notes and chords in the scale of the song.
CHOOSE YOUR PLAYING VIEW

Choose how you read the song, from a Guitar Hero-like view with shapes falling down the screen to black-and-white sheet music. There’s an interactive view to suit all ages and stages, and it’s easy to progress from one to the next!
SLOW THINGS DOWN

Take things at your own pace. Slow down the song, or play it at the normal tempo.
TAKE IN-APP LESSONS

You’ll learn just by playing and practicing. But you can also take fast, fun, lessons about music basics. Scales, chords, and hand position are some of the topics covered in LUMI in-app lessons.

COMPACT, LIGHTWEIGHT, PORTABLE

Compact and lightweight, LUMI Keys can travel anywhere. At just 600g it weighs less than an iPad Pro. It’s smaller than almost all laptops, so it fits easily in bags and backpacks. When you’re taking LUMI on the go, you can protect the keyboard in style with a custom-made Snapcase.

THE FIRST EXPANDABLE KEYBOARD

Snap two or more LUMI Keys together to instantly expand your keyboard. ROLI's patented magnetic connectors and an edge-to-edge design come together to make LUMI Keys the world’s first fully expandable keyboard.

WE ARE MUSIC TECH INOVATORS

We reinvented the keyboard once before at ROLI. The Seaboard is a revolutionary instrument that’s everywhere from La La Land to the studios of world-renowned artists like RZA, Grimes, and Hans Zimmer. Now we’re doing it again, building on years of expertise and innovation in hardware, software, sound design, industrial design, and audio coding.
