Neon blue LED musical keyboard
Upper and lower keys all light up according to keys pressed
Can turn off LED’s for daytime play
Controlled by midi software connected to a computer or smart phone or independently no PC required
Option to dim LED’s
The ability to play in a dark environment producing appealing effects
Cameras to some degree give a small differential visual appearance and the glow looks more attractive through the naked eye
Everyone’s views on this post will be different that’s what makes us all unique

I've added a battery-powered strip of LEDs (dimmable, and various color choices) to my Hammond "B3 case" for my Hammond SK Pro 73 for use on dark stages -- see the images below -- but keys that light up?

My first thoughts...

* How's the keybed and the action? (Most important!)

* How's the sound? (Also important! Or is it MIDI with virtual VSTs?)

* What happens when the LEDs on the most-used keys fail? (Important some day)

For fast leads or soloing, I also think I'd want to know "where G3 is" before I hit it -- and not when/after it's played...

To me, the lighting or the lighting effects (those lit-up keys) is secondary to the sounds & music I'm playing. If it helps -- great! -- but it's not the primary output.
