The original ROLI Lightpad set a precedent in the portable music making world. This compact and highly expressive performance controller, provides exceptional expressive control that you could take anywhere. The Lightpad allows you to create music using the touch of your finger, recreating everything from drum sounds to flutes, synths, choirs and more. The expandable design allows you to connect the Lightpad M to a range of other ROLI blocks, allowing you to create your own customisable modular controller. The Lightpad M builds on the success of the original, providing a range of new features and enhancements to its design.
The ROLI Lightpad M builds on the success of its predecessor, with a range of improvements and upgrades. One of the most prominent changes made to the design is the microkeywaves. Inspired by the ROLI Seaboard, the microkeywaves deliver exceptional tactile control and feedback, from the pressure-sensitive surface. The redesigned silicone surface layer is deeper and softer, with 225 microkeywaves in total for optimal expressive control. The surface has also been made brighter for low-light environments, as well as looking sleek and stylish.
This highly compact and lightweight controller fits within the palm of your hand, making it the ultimate portable performance controller. Its expandable connections allow you to link the Lightpad M to other ROLI blocks for expansive control. The newest version of ROLI’s dedicated application – Noise 3.0 is also now available for free download. Noise 3.0 introduces a range of new upgrades, including improvements to clip launching, editing, as well as the user-interface. It also features a range of new acoustic sounds. You can now get hyper-realistic violin, saxophone, cello and other classical acoustic sounds.
The Lightpad M comes complete with a customised version of Ableton Live Lite, integration with the Lightpad, turning it into a flexible control surface. Additionally, the unit also includes the Strobe2 player – a desktop version of the critically-acclaimed Polysynth from FXexpansion. This gives you access to 50 presets and 3 macros, fully compatible with the ROLI Lightpad M.
The ROLI Snapcase Solo is the perfect solution for keeping your ROLI Lightpad Block safe during transport and storage. Carefully crafted from premium-grade materials, the Snapcase Solo attaches to your Lightpad magnetically and utilises a flexible, foldable cover to protect the silicone surface of your controller from environmental damages and potential spillages. The Snapcase can also act as a foundational base for your ROLI Blocks setup. The ROLI Snapcase Solo can fit a single Lightpad Block inside it, and enables quick, safe, lightweight transport for your controller.
