Casio Computer and UK music tech company ROLI announced a strategic partnership on June 1, with the first product being the subscription app ROLI Learn for CASIO. The app, releasing in June on iOS and Android, teaches electronic keyboard playing through on-screen guides and includes over 1,200 existing ROLI tracks plus more than 50 exclusive songs, including Bruno Mars' "Treasure" and BTS's "Butter." It works with Casio keyboards that use the WU-BT10 wireless MIDI adapter.
The app offers four display modes and a speed-adjustment function, letting players follow on-screen guides without reading sheet music. It also includes games and exercises for pitch and rhythm development. Subscriptions are available monthly or annually, with introductory Japanese pricing at 1,912 yen per month or 15,192 yen per year. The app launches in Japan, the US, UK, France, and Germany, with English and Japanese support. Compatible Casio series include Privia, CELVIANO, Casiotone, and CDP models such as the PX-S1100 and AP-750.
