Roli used to have the Lumi keys, which was the cheapest midi keyboard you could get with midi polyphonic expression at around $200 on sale. You could move each of the keys side to side to bend the pitch of the sound, you could press down all the way for a different effect on the sound, you could quickly lift up for after touch effects, and you could also press the keys very fast or slow for different effects as well.
It was also very portable so you could take four of them, and connect them together with magnets on the side, to have up to 96 keys that light up very bright colors and can highlight scales, and you can change the color of the scales with your own personal colors with user mode, a rainbow mode, a pro color mode, a regular piano mode, or even a stage mode where the colors are all dim in rainbow mode and they light up when you press them. I have four of them myself and they are incredible midi controllers.
It was rebranded to the Piano M recently and in 2021, the design was updated so they remove the magnetic connectors on the top to make the design more rigid.
Now on January 23rd, 2025, they have just released a new piano, which is 49 keys, the keys are full sized, have a full plunge depth, they are semi-weighted, and have a mid sustain port now, so you can connect a sustain pedal. The Lumi keys had very small keys and the keys didn't feel as good to use because you couldn't press them down as much. So this was a great change.
Normally, the price is $600, but there is a discount with a super earlybird offer for $200 off. You can also use the coupon EBPIANO-j2325x for an extra $50 off, bring the total down to $349 with free shipping.
Based off my Lumi keys, I can already tell that these are going to be incredible because when the scales are highlighted in different colors, it's so much easier to create chords and learn the scales through muscle memory. They also have a subscription app on iPad and android which teaches you how to play and it's pretty good from what I've tried out, it literally lights up the keys while there is a person teaching you. The lights can become very, very bright as well.
Their Airwave which lets you manipulate sound with your hands in the air, with different hand gestures, and has a camera that tracks your hands to teach you hand posture, works together with the ai in the Roli Learn app to teach you the correct way how to play. It's normally $350 but you can also get that bundled for $100 off for a total of $598 with the coupon code.
Since it's an early bird offer, the piano comes with a free tote bag, a hat, and a piano sustain pedal, along with four free sound expansion packs including Contemporary Cinema, Elemental EDM, Deep House, and Pop Party that you can use with the Roli Studio Player software virtual instrument that comes with the piano.
Here are some videos of the new piano so you guys can see more :

"Don't miss this chance—this Super Bowl weekend special ends Sunday at midnight PST."
Which means it expires midnight February 9th.
Just know that it comes with the roli piano but the extra sound packs and the tote bag and hat and sustain pedal isn't being given away with it anymore since that early bird offer is over.

I have the Lumi Keys so I would say yes.
They also have a 30 day return policy I think.
Is there another coupon that works?
