Is this the Peloton for piano? Lumi Keys by Roli is a multi-layered approach to teaching piano with a rainbow midi keyboard, interactive video lessons, games, and a vast library of hit songs. See the newest game coming to the Lumi app, Springboard, a platform jumping challenge. Bridget Carey explains how Lumi works for beginners and those with music experience — and how a few days with Lumi got her back in the swing of playing the keyboard.

    Simply Piano on IOS / IPADOS is really good too

    These are games and our distraction from learning a musical instrument. They destroy interest in musical instruments. Don’t use them.

    Pass for sure! Wonder what the price will be a year from now? Who did the market study for this product? Fail.

    That would be awesome if it was a full size keyboard

    • Christian Fuchs

      Yah. And midi capable.

    • LUMI

      @Christian Fuchs Hi Christian, LUMI is MIDI capable!

      @LUMI really? Must have overheard it… tnk you lumi!

    That’s an egregious ongoing price. As others have mentioned it would make more sense just to get online lessons from a pro.

    • Bridget Carey

      March 1, 2021 at 4:16 pm

      It does come with a number of lessons and songs included for the price of the keyboard. For the $30 extra you pay for the Lumi Complete subscription, it’s not bad at all for the value (at least in this first year promotional deal). But the team would certainly need to keep adding more and more courses to make it worth it for a second year’s subscription to someone who uses it a lot. You’re paying for all the programming here for the lessons.

    Just buy a $300 keyboard and get $80 online lessons and that will serve you better lol

    A better model would have been giving consumers a choice between DLC content training packs or subscription model giving access to all content. Especially if end users are asked to front $300 for the hardware. It’s a learner keyboard, not a condo.

    too expensive

    Man Roli is such a weird company. None of the Seaboard or Lightpad products worked out really, you don’t see major musicians use them.

    • LUMI

      March 2, 2021 at 11:41 am

      Hi there, the Seaboard and BLOCKS have been used in tracks by Hans Zimmer, Grimes, Ed Sheeran and Wu Tang Clan, plus they’ve been featured in live performances by Guns N Roses, Duran Duran, Flume, St Vincent and many, many more!

    I’d rather just go buy a switch with that price

  17. Kris Torres

    Isn’t the treble clef usually associated with the right hand?

      yup

    Learning Piano on a 24 plastic key toy for charming 299 PLUS lesions wich even dont have midi? Its like making your driving license on a rainbow farting donkey. Bs.

    • LUMI

      March 2, 2021 at 11:33 am

      Hi Christian, LUMI is a MIDI keyboard! You can use it like a normal MIDI device with other apps or desktop music making software.

    • Christian Fuchs

      March 2, 2021 at 4:35 pm

      @LUMI hi lumi – again, i‘m sorry, i must have overheard this. My other arguments stay.

  22. Neil Carmichael

    A secondhand keyboard and “simply piano” would give more bang for the buck

  23. E Man

    just like Yousician, just an endless money pit

  24. Kennedy

    I zoned off at the price 😩
