ROLI is a human-centric music technology company with a mission to ‘free the music’. ROLI has established itself as a leading innovator in music technology, with pioneering breakthroughs including Seaboard, BLOCKS, LUMI, a pivotal role in establishing MPE, and now Airwave.
ROLI, the music technology pioneer, is proud to announce Airwave, a breakthrough in musical interaction for both music learners and creators. ROLI Airwave turns any ROLI keyboard into an “intelligent piano,” with magical vision and voice capabilities. For music learners, this results in the world’s first intelligent practice assistant that can see your hands, hear your voice, and give you precise feedback as you progress. For music creators, this opens up a whole new dimension of musical play and expression.

“Music learning and playing have been far too difficult for too long: intimidating, expensive, and one-size-fits-all,” said Roland Lamb, CEO of ROLI. “At ROLI, we are on a mission to free the music, making it possible for anyone to learn the language of music with new digital tools that open up new possibilities of human expression. With recent advances in computer vision and AI, we are finally able to innovate beyond the keys, and can now bring this human-centric technology to music learners and creators alike.”
ROLI Airwave leverages 3D infrared cameras and newly introduced Vision technology to see your hands and capture precise finger movements and gestures as you play. This allows for highly personalised, responsive feedback, and also invites musicians to play in new, more intuitive ways across many more dimensions.
