Features

  • VERSATILITY IS KEY: KeyStep widens the creative potential of your setup! This portable musical tool combines a keyboard controller with a polyphonic step sequencer to control both analog and digital devices. Compatible with synths or keyboards, analog or digital, hardware or software, its built for effortless real-time composition and live performance.
  • HIGHLY PLAYABLE: Its Slimkey keyboard action balances the main features of compact mini-keys with the musicality of full-sized keys, complete with velocity and aftertouch, giving you the freedom of portability without sacrificing playability. You can compose and perform effortlessly with 8 programmable sequence memories, change the feel of your sequences with on-the-fly gate time and swing adjustment, and transpose and overdub in real-time. You are set for hours of musical adventures!
  • GO BEYOND SEQUENCING: Each feature has been thought out to match live artists' hopes and needs. In Sequencer mode, you can record, play and transpose a polyphonic sequence with up to 64 steps and 8 simultaneous notes per step. Sequencer mode also allows you to rewrite in real-time your sequence and even to play and sequence simultaneously on two different MIDI channels.
  • ARPEGGIATOR AND CHORD MODES: You can also play up to 8-note chord voicings with a single key thanks to Chord mode or create exciting melodies and rhythms in seconds with KeySteps flexible 8-mode arpeggiator. It allows you to play each note of a chord consecutively instead of simultaneously.
  • ALL THE CONNECTIONS AND SOFTWARE YOU NEED: This MIDI keyboard will communicate with your setup without hassle. With MIDI over USB, MIDI in/out, analog sync in/out, and CV outputs, you can pair it with virtually any instrument! Keystep also comes with all the creative software you need. Make great-sounding tracks in full (Ableton Live Lite), get hundreds of pro-grade synth and key sounds (Analog Lab Intro) and easily edit your MIDI setups and sequences (MIDI Control Center).

Description

Founded in France in 1999, Arturia creates instruments and effects that inspire creativity and help everyone explore their own sound. From award-winning MIDI controllers, keyboards, audio interfaces, synthesizers, and V Collection software instruments, we design hardware and software that streamlines your workflow and enhances your creativity. We started by designing our own “slim key” keyboard action, balancing the best features of compact mini-keys with the musicality of full-sized keys into this new keybed. The size, velocity and aftertouch of this new design provide the freedom of portability without sacrificing playability. We also designed a new polyphonic step-sequencer with 8 programmable memories that you can recall at the turn of knob. You can choose gate times and swing settings instantly to change the feel of your sequenced performance on the fly. We also included the ability to record, overdub, and transpose your sequences in real time and still play the keyboard live. Add a flexible and fun arpeggiator mode and chord play mode and you are set for hours of musical adventures. These features alone would make KeyStep the best portable keyboard controller on the market. But we take it further by giving you a wealth of connectivity options: USB MIDI (of course), standard MIDI in and out (check), clock sync and DIN sync jacks (yes!), and CV/GATE outputs, plus a separate, assignable modulation CV output that can be used with the mod wheel, velocity or aftertouch. KeyStep is the perfect performance controller in a compact package. Infusing the best elements of traditional MIDI controllers with advanced step sequencing power, the Step range truly puts you in command of your software and hardware instruments. Just at home on the stage as they are in your home studio, these sequencers have been designed to enhance your ability to perform, improvise, write, and create. Each member of the Step family features its own unique mix of CV/gate ins, outs, MIDI ports, and USB connectivity to ensure you have the tools you need to stay in control.

    • Awesome MIDI Controller and Sequencer
Style: KeyStep
This thing is awesome. For the price, you simply can't beat it. Nice build quality, responsive keybed with aftertouch, 64 step sequencer with 8 note polyphony, arpeggiator with 8 order options, capacitive pitch and mod strips, chord mode, swing and gate functions, more than enough midi channels, and plenty of connection options to pair with other gear. There is no screen, so you will have to learn the buttons and their alternate shift function. Thankfully, Arturia put has an excellent user manual that will aid you in this. There are even more ways to program it with the online software, which is simple and easy to install. All in all, it is very fun to mess around on and can take your sound to a new level. It won't have some advanced features, but hey, its $100. Like I said, for the price, you can't beat it. ... show more

    • Perfect Keyboard Controller with amazing functions!
Style: KeyStep
Go to Youtube, check out the functionality. This product worked perfectly for me to add keyboard layers to my Video and Audio projects without taking much room. The functionality is amazing. The quality is heavy duty and the keys have an amazing touch for a product that is just over 100 dollars. 32 Keys, that can where the octave of the keyboard can be readily dropped and raised makes a limited number of keys, not a problem. The arpeggiator and sequencer will open up new worlds for those of you that may not have 20 years of keyboard experience but you want those nice pads or electronic backdrops. Check it out via Youtube! It does what it says it does. It is an amazing product for the money. They could have sold this for closer to 200 or even more. Thanks for putting it in reach for all of us Arturia. ... show more

    • also comes with bonus software downloads . . . including ableton live 9 lite!!!
Style: KeyStep
i just received my KeyStep this afternoon, and it may be a little while before i get a good block of time with it. i am somewhat a newbie to this kind of musical equipment and recently, have been busier than usual . . . But this keyboard looks quite solid, receiving dis-proportional good review, also a nice size; having 7 more than the more common 25 keys, and these are also larger than a "mini" keyboard . . . so far, am more than glad I chose this product over some prominent "others" that were clearly advertising inclusion of the Ableton 9 lite software (that i could only wish this keyboard included when i chose it in spite of believing it didn't) So I have to comment concerning my complete surprise and sharing this fact for someone considering this keyboard ---- people should know . . . it is both a significant, and a very awesome plus to me that this DOES come with software downloads --- including the Ableton Live 9 Lite software ! ! ! (over a Gigabyte of software downloads all-in-all) I had already been searching related products, somewhat resigned to a necessity i would need to make additional hardware purchases just in order to get this kind of "bonus" necessary software . . . software i was completely unaware the Keystep already included. So, great!! And for the life of me, I still can't find where this is mentioned anywhere in the product listing or any of the other reviews. I must have missed it? However, it it is very clearly stated on the Product packaging . . . so I've just downloaded a firmware update, Ableton Lite, Arturia Midi Control Center plus a 'gift' software promotion "MiniFilter V" that is offered upon completing registration of the product. As reviewers have pointed out in their reviews of other similar midi products , the equivalent Ableton introductory software retails at about $80 as a standalone purchase --give or take a few $$$. Knowing all of this now ---this product is a no-brainer and a bargain for an introductory item in its class ... show more

    • An extremely play-able midi controller with superior build quality
Style: KeyStep
Here is the deal. For the price, you likely wont get a better "feeling" keyboard than the Arturia Keystep 32. I have several under-$200 midi controllers and keyboards, and the build quality on this guy sets the bar at this price range. Like its brother, the very popular "Beatstep", It has a nice weight to it and feels like a product that was made with the utmost care. My computer recognized it easily and I was able to get a midi signal instantly in every DAW I tested it in. (This includes Studio One Pro 3, Samplitude Pro X3, Mulab 7, Reason 9, Fl 12, Tracktion 7, and Reaper) My favorite feature of this controller is however, the actual key bed itself. These self described "Mini Keys" are not full size nor are they really tiny like those found on the Akai MPK Mini. They are somewhere in between the two, and boy do they feel right when put to use! They don't feel cheap or springy like many other entry-level controllers and because of this the Keystep has become my go-to midi keyboard when recording on the road or in my home studio. My only complaint is that the Transport buttons (stop,play,& record) on the controller are only usable for the built in sequencer and as DAW transport controls. Of course this is only a very minor oversight and may not even be relevant to those out there who already have a DAW controller they use for transport controls. It would be convenient though to at least have the option to make this your main controller to speed up workflow or to use on the road. The sequencing and arp features are very well integrated and though I wont go into detail on them, I would suggest a good read-through of the Keystep manual to fully take advantage of these features. All in all, despite the lack of proper DAW transport controls, the Keystep is in a class of its own in terms of quality,build, and most importantly, play-ability. Well done Arturia. ... show more

    • Need a small keyboard with USB, Sync, MIDI, and CV?
Style: KeyStep
This is the best small format keyboard I have purchased. I actually use every function in this mini keyboard. The keys feel weird at first as it is not mini keys (kind of reminds me of the Korg Minilogue) but in-between mini and medium sized keys. The ribbon Pitch Bend and Mod Wheels work fine. It has velocity sensitive keys and supports aftertouch. What makes this great is it has a built in sequencer, an arpeggiator, and the best part is the support for MIDI, Sync and CV. If you have older MIDI gear or Modular setup, this can be used for both. Also, while you have a sequence playing from the keyboard, you can send to another device your live playing. I have hooked up an old drum machine with a sync out, connect sync in to the Keystep, have the Keystep play a sequence to the modular and play the Waldorf Pulse 2 via MIDI. That's pretty sweet for something in this price range. Must have for noodling around or for live setup of modular synth and drum machine. ... show more

Style: KeyStep
Short if it's small USB connection, it's really sturdy. And that connection is pretty tight, so no drop-outs. I have found this quite handy for working on my laptop when away from the studio. A person not into much keyboard needs will find this adequate for the occasional music-making needs. I was impressed. I had an M-Audio 49 key and this impressed me much more. I love it's small footprint. Haven't twiddled with all the knobs and such. Just use the mod pads and keyboard. It's a bit smaller than a normal keyboard sized keys but I had no trouble adjusting. I've bought a bunch of stuff I returned, sold or gave away but this has a solid place in my music making needs. ... show more
