roli

ROLI (Luminary ROLI Ltd.) is a British music-technology company known for expressive electronic instruments — the Seaboard, LUMI Keys keyboards, and the modular BLOCKS system — together with companion software such as ROLI Dashboard, ROLI Connect, Equator, and ROLI Learn. Its instruments pioneer MPE (MIDI Polyphonic Expression) for per-note pitch, timbre, and dynamics control. For developers, ROLI publishes first-party SDKs under the github.com/weareroli organization — the C++ BLOCKS-SDK and roli_blocks_basics for building applications that talk to BLOCKS hardware, and the archived mpejs library for MPE MIDI in the browser. ROLI is backed by Balderton Capital and Index Ventures. This profile was added to the API Evangelist network as a portfolio lead and enriched with real developer, SDK, and domain-security artifacts.
