Piano visualizer for Mac.
LumaKeys turns any piano piece into falling notes and exports it as a video, up to 4K at 60 fps.
Bring in a MIDI file, play the piece in yourself, or transcribe a piano recording. Pick a look, then export for YouTube or for your phone.
It's also the app you learn the piece in: slow it down, loop a section and practice one hand at a time. More on that in learning piano without sheet music.
Learn, transcribe, style and export. All in LumaKeys.
Three ways to get a piece in.
-
A MIDI file
Drop it in and it plays as falling notes.
-
Your own playing
Record with your MIDI keyboard or your computer keys. Fix a wrong note in the piano roll instead of playing the whole take again.
-
A piano recording
Transcribe an audio or video file, or record straight from your mic. It runs on your Mac and nothing is uploaded. 5 transcriptions on Free, unlimited on Pro.
How transcription works: piano audio to MIDI on your Mac.
Make it look like yours.
LumaKeys comes with 12 looks. Start from one and change what you want: note materials like Glass, Chrome, Liquid or Fire, colors by hand or per note, glow, particles, and a background from Midnight, Nebula, Aurora or your own image.
Save it as your own look. Every piece remembers the look you gave it.
Exported from LumaKeys.

Questions & answers.
Something missing? Ask me.
Is there a free piano visualizer for Mac?
Yes. LumaKeys Free is the full app with every look, and exports 1080p videos with a small watermark. Free keeps up to 10 imported pieces at a time and includes 5 transcriptions. Pro removes the watermark, adds 4K and lifts the caps.
Do I need a MIDI file?
No. You can play the piece in with a MIDI keyboard or your computer keys, or transcribe a piano recording right on your Mac.
Does it work with my MIDI keyboard?
Yes. Connect it and play. No keyboard? Your computer keys work too.
Can I make vertical videos for TikTok, Reels or Shorts?
Yes. Pick Mobile in the export panel and LumaKeys exports 9:16, at 1080×1920 on Free and up to 2160×3840 on Pro.
Can I use my own piano sound?
Yes. On Pro, LumaKeys plays and exports through Pianoteq or Vienna Synchron if you have them installed. You can also export with your own audio recording, synced to the notes.
Does it run on Intel Macs?
Yes. LumaKeys runs on Apple Silicon and Intel Macs with macOS 12 or later.
