Your first few hours with a Lightpad can be one big musical headrush, and ROLI PLAY is here to hold your hand! The app helps you master the techniques for playing a Lightpad — so you can start making music as soon as you take it out of the box.

With ROLI PLAY you can...

Learn how to shape sound through touch:

Play around with a huge range of sounds from delicate flutes to guitar leads to pulsing dance floor beats. Learn how to shape and deepen any sound through simple gestures. The app teaches you how how five movements — Strike, Glide, Slide, Press, and Lift — become musical on the Lightpad Block's surface.

Start making songs:

Have fun experimenting with electronic music composition on a Lightpad Block. Anyone can do it! Make a song by choosing sounds, recording loops, and mixing them — all within the easy-to-use interfaces of the app. Explore basslines, chords, and leads, and how you can layer these elements to make amazing tracks. You don't need to be a DJ to start making music.

Am finding that after downloading, its crashing straight away. Both on iPhone and iPad with OS 16.5. The other ROLI apps are fine.

Is there any plans to include the Seaboard block in the future on ROLI Play? It would help a lot of people get used to the different aspects of touch with exercises like that

Got to agree. I ditched most of my apple gear. Writing this from a Dell and saw this video earlier from my pixel. If this doesn't work on both platforms, I'm not investing in it.
