Features
- THE BEST MUSIC-MAKING FLOW: Sensitive enough to accurately capture the subtleties and nuances of delicate playing, while still being robust enough to feel the energy of high-impact performances, KeyLab MkII is an easy keyboard controller that adapts to your needs, your style and your workflow, so you can make music just the way you like it. It comes with a 2-year warranty, so you can get creative safely in the knowledge that it can go the distance.
- EXPRESSIVE AND INSPIRING: More than a simple MIDI controller, KeyLab MkII is a finely crafted tool that brings out the best in its users. Its aftertouch-enabled keybed will delight synth players; the 9 faders can control the virtual drawbars of an organ one moment, and at the flick of a switch, control the levels in your DAW; custom chords can be stored within the performance pads for intuitive live triggering, so you can play lead on the keys, and create lush soundscape on the pads.
- SUPERB BUILD QUALITY: Reassuringly heavy, aluminum chassis, wood panels, machined pitch bend and mod wheels, and luxury keybed. Every aspect of KeyLab MkII has been designed with quality in mind, and from the very first moment, will inspire confidence and trust.
- INSPIRING SOFTWARE INCLUDED: Get access to over 6000 synth and keyboard presets from their flagship V Collection (Analog Lab 3); enjoy a masterful collection of physically modeled pianos (Arturia Piano V); and make great-sounding tracks in full (Ableton Live Lite). KeyLab MkII offers all the creative software you need.
- CONNECTIVITY GALORE: In addition to the full-sized MIDI in and out connectors, we have spiced the KeyLab MkII with 4 CV outputs and a CV input. Leading the way in modular control, users can send pitch, gate, and 2 modulation sources to Eurorack gear, or vintage outboard synths. This full-featured controller al boasts 5 expression pedal inputs to satisfy even the most advanced performance setups.

This is the best controller/keyboard I’ve ever owned. The look and build quality is superb. Arturia definitely has my attention.

Fantastic controller

Keybed is better than the last one but really still needs work. The pads are decent and the sliders are good but an overall more solid design would be appreciated for the mkIII. Make it a metal tank!

When we received this item it was defective. We sent it back and requested a replacement. To date we have not received the replacement even though it states it was shipped.

Got this to be my master midi controller for Studio One, Cubase and Logic. I use mostly VST from Arturia (collection V), NI (Komplete 12) and some other companies. First of all, this keyboard is gorgeous to look at, in black and faux wood trim, and it is built like a tank. Once you place it on your desk or table, it won't move. It is heavier than you may think, and most of it is made of metal. The keybed is not super but for the price range it is great. Buttons, faders and knobs feels decently solid; they wobble a bit and some are a bit loose, but in general everything seems OK. The 16 velocity sensitive pads are good; you can use them easily, once you set your favorite velocity setting, and they are pretty responsive. On the left of the 16 pads you have buttons to enable chord and transpose mode, which is great. Just beware that the pads are locked to a midi channel, so if you want to use the chord mode on an instrument that has multiple midi channels, you have to change the settings in the menu; while for the keybed you can use a simple button press to switch to any of the 16 midi channels, with the pads you have to menu dive, which is bothersome. You will get Analog Lab included; which has a ton of presets, although you can change a limited amount of parameters, unless you own the full Arturia Collection V, which I do. Macros are already assigned in analog lab mode, so you can browse presets and modify parameters directly from the keylab. One thing that is borderline ridiculous, is that there is no way to mark presets as favorite from the keyboard. You have to use the mouse, which is really mindblowing, considering that a Native Instrument S49 or even the M32 can do that with a key combination on the controller itself. Integration with DAWs is guaranteed by presets; you will switch the controller to DAW mode, with a button press and once you select the appropriate profile, you can use transporter controls and more buttons on the left side of the keyboard, to control the DAW. The operations are the most common, and you even get a magnetic plaque that goes on top of the panel, for each DAW supported. The knobs in this mode control the mixer panning, while the faders control the volume of each channel, and you can move between channels with the arrow buttons. The bad news is that even with a DAW mode, and 10 user preset you can customize as you wish; you still have limited amount of options for controlling your DAW. In DAW mode the faders, buttons and knobs are set to specific CC; the 10 dedicated buttons are not assignable so you have to use them for whatever they were programmed for, and the transport buttons are also not assignable, but that's fine, since you would not use them for anything else anyway. Faders are locked to volume controls and knobs locked to pan controls, you can't change that. If you decide to use VST, prepare to not have mapping because Arturia did only a half job mapping things. If you use the analog lab mode, you have mapping, but you have access to one set of 9 faders and knobs; because the buttons are assigned to switch categories, so you have 18 controls total. If you use any of the Arturia collection synths, you will need more than that; and you can't assign anything when in analog lab mode, so that is the first issue you will face. You may think that you can switch to User mode, and that is fair, since in that mode you have full control on all 3 type of controls (faders, buttons, knobs), and you have 3 pages available, which bring the grandtotal of assignable controls to 27x3 plus the 10 controls used in DAW mode, which can be assigned in user mode to whatever you like. And you would think that being an Arturia product, there is a user mode for the Arturia collection synts; and the mapping is consistent among synts...well, no. You get random CC assigned to your keylab, and you have to make mappings manually for each synth you want to use. In comparison, if you buy a Native Instrument keyboard, and use their Komplete Kontrol wrapper, you have everything assigned and infinite pages, although you get only 8 knobs, loosing the faders and buttons. Same for the Nektar products, which use Nektarine plugin; where you have infinite pages, and mapping out of the box. This is one of the cases where your 299 keyboard from a 3rd party company, has better mapping that your own 499 midi keyboard controller. There is a big award for whoever decided that selling an Arturia midi keyboard without mapping out of the box with Arturia own plugin suit, was a good idea. So, if you get this controller, get ready to compromise with controls, because you have only 3 pages of controls in user mode, and a handful in DAW mode and Analog lab mode; unless all you do is to use basic DAW features, and prefer to use your mouse. I was looking for something that would not interrupt me, by using a mouse and clicking on small little knobs and wheels, but clearly, Arturia does not have that as objective in mind, and decided to make a great controller that is only as good as the limited usage it allow.

I ordered the product new, but the box had been opened. The cable was missing and I was unable to register the product. They later sent me the cable. So far the MIDI works great and is undamaged.
