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.

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.

I’ve been using the KeyLab Essential mk3 for about 2 months with no problems so far. Very happy it comes bundled with Analog Lab V, which adds great sounds right out of the box. For the price, it’s an excellent value. The keys are not heavily weighted though, so if you prefer a more sensitive, piano-like touch you may want to look at a fully weighted keyboard.

So far a great product and pretty intuitive to use. Also an incredible value for 61 keys, pads, and all the software integrations that come with this. One gripe, why oh why is the included 'power' cord a USB-C to USB cable?? Super frustrating to have to buy a USB-USB-C Adapter. Also would be nice to have the option to just run off an outlet instead of having to plug more things into my USB-C dongle

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.

The web page claims to show product dimensions as: 39.75 x 9.75 x 6.35 inches. WRONG! Those are the PACKAGE dimensions! The Arturia web site says the PRODUCT dimensions are: Size : 35 x 9.45 x 2.76 inches (890 x 240 x 70mm) This was important to me because the space I have for the keyboard is 36 inches wide. If I had believed the Amazon listing page, I would not have bought the product (it would have been too big for my space!) Fortunately, I checked it out with the MFG -- because many Amazon listings are so inaccurate, I've learned to be careful. The dimensions may not be important to anyone else, but why can't they give the CORRECT information about the product? This is just plain lazy. If I could find the correct information, I would expect the seller to be able to also. It's a good product that I almost did not buy because of the inaccurate information on the listing! I have sent this information to the seller.

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).
