  • Amazing value

Love it. Nicely integrated knobs and sliders that work with the analog lab software. For the price this is an amazing value. 61 keys the perfect size for songwriting in my opinion.

  • A Powerful and Versatile MIDI Controller: Arturia KeyLab Essential MK3
Size: 61 Key Style: Essential MK3 Only Color: White
The Arturia KeyLab Essential MK3 is a fantastic MIDI controller that brings a perfect blend of functionality, ease of use, and robust features for both beginners and experienced musicians. The design is sleek and modern, with a solid build quality that feels durable without being too bulky. The 49-key version offers a great balance between portability and a full range of keys, with responsive, synth-action keys that provide just the right amount of feedback. One of the standout features of the KeyLab Essential MK3 is its seamless integration with Arturia's software ecosystem. It comes with a rich bundle of software, including Analog Lab V, which gives access to over 6,000 sounds from Arturia’s vast collection of virtual instruments. The included software suite is powerful, making it easy to dive into music production right out of the box. The controls are well-laid-out and highly intuitive. The 8 velocity-sensitive pads are perfect for triggering drum sounds, and the 9 faders and rotary knobs are assignable, making it easy to control virtual instruments or DAW functions. Whether you're producing, recording, or performing live, the KeyLab Essential MK3 provides a comprehensive control surface that enhances your creative process. Another highlight is the intuitive integration with popular DAWs, including Ableton Live, Logic Pro, and others, making the setup process simple. The addition of transport controls and dedicated buttons for octave shifts and modulation adds to the convenience, letting you focus on your music rather than the technology. Overall, the Arturia KeyLab Essential MK3 is a well-rounded MIDI controller that offers exceptional value for its price. It’s a great tool for musicians of all levels, providing deep control, seamless software integration, and solid build quality, all in one affordable package. Whether you're producing at home, in the studio, or performing live, the KeyLab Essential MK3 is a top-tier choice that won't disappoint. ... show more

  • Nice and simple with great features
Size: 61 Key Style: Essential MK3 Only Color: White
This is my first MIDI keyboard and it did not disappoint! It's very simple and easy to get going with your favorite DAW. The Analog pro software it comes with has a lot of great instruments and synths to play with. I would purchase this again knowing what I know now!

  • Not a bad midi keyboard
Size: 61 Key Style: Essential MK3 Only Color: White
It's a very good midi keyboard. The keys aren't top tier quality but at the same time they're not that bad. I'm a pianist so the feel of the keys are really important to me but if you're looking for a relatively cheap midi keyboard then I'd say that this is one of the best out there. I love the included software that you get with the purchase as well. ... show more

  • Beautiful piece of engineering!
Size: 61 Key Style: Essential MK3 Only Color: White
This is the Rolls Royce of low-cost MIDI controller. Packed with features and the company stands behind it with routine updates. Have now three of these (25-key, 49-key, and 61-key).

  • LOVE IT
Size: 61 Key Style: Essential MK3 Only Color: White
Absolutely love this keyboard so so much. Finally got my pc all set up and installed the software, and everything runs together flawlessly. You don’t have to fumble around trying to move files where they need to go, so it works with whatever DAW you’re using. Just works. AND I can hook it up to my iPad and use it as a midi controller on GarageBand for fun, ALSO just works flawlessly. I 110% could not recommend this keyboard more. It’s beautiful, and feels fantastic. Fantastic price for all you can get out of it. ... show more
