    Thank you!
    I just added layers to do multiple effects! It takes little more time to render but I am really satisfied with the result!
    I have one more question!

    Like the picture above, I want to make my piano keyboard light up with the shadows from the black keys.
    When I record a video with top-down angle and add optical flare effect, it lights up the background but does not create shadows of the black piano keys like the picture above.
    I think this has to do something with 3d.. stuff.
    Is this possible to do in after effects?

    If i make a pre-comp of multiple layers of particular effects, Is it possible to have that pre comp emit layer or is it only possible with one particulr effect?

    Thanks to your help, I was able to create the video footage.
    I have one more question for you.
    The prticular particles do not show unless I set the prticles to 100,000+ (Video size is 1920×1080).
    Is having that many particles usual? Because it seems to slow down rendering time by a lot.
    (I want to layer at least three particular effects but i barely see the particles unless they are all 100,000+)

    Wow, at first I did not know what you meant by keylighting but this is a lot simpler than i thought!!
    I do not even need to import the midi info…. I spent 5 days trying to figure out LOL
    THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE DUMMY FILE! YOU ARE MY HERO!

    P.S
    If I want to use the actual video footage of the still image posted above, can I just import the video file on the project?

    What I am actually trying to replicate is this

    when the note hits the piano roll, after effects plays combination of ‘particular’ effects.
    I was demonstrating it with red rectangle just for testing with faster rendering.
    Could you elaborate what you mean by ‘easier to use the piano roll of the notes and a small area right above the keyboard to see which notes are being hit’
    By the way, the background with the green and blue box and piano roll is

    this app called synthesia. I just screen recorded the app and imported it into AE.
