ARTURIA KeyStep USB MIDI Controller

Need a portable USB MIDI controller, but also want a keyboard that provides a musical playing experience? Got some MIDI modules you want to plug in too, but don't want the footprint of a big keyboard? Do you have modular and analog gear you want to control via CV/GATEs? Want a step sequencer with polyphonic capability that can be synced to your favorite modern and vintage gear? If only a single piece of gear could do all this…

The KeyStep controller does all this and more.

We started by designing our own "slim" keyboard action that balances the best features of compact mini keys with the musicality of full size keys in this new keybed. The size, speed and aftertouch of this new design offers the freedom of portability without sacrificing playability.

We've also designed a new polyphonic step sequencer with 8 programmable memories that you can recall by turning the knob. You can select 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 playback mode, and you're ready for hours of musical adventure.
