Best in class
ARTURIA once again raises the bar for hardware controllers with the KeyLab MKII. Whether you choose 49, 61 or 88 keys, black or white, you get a keyboard built from quality components to last. In addition to the good keys, which of course have both touch sensitivity and Aftertouch, we also find 16 delicious RGB silicone pads, which also have touch sensitivity and Aftertouch. 9 large faders, 9 potentiometers, 5 expression control inputs, 4 CV outputs and dedicated section for Preset and DAW control complete the work
Real joy of playing
As a pianist or keyboard player, you know how important the physical environment is. KeyLab MKII delivers on all counts, and feels as solid as a professional instrument should feel, whether it was born with sounds or not. Apart from the keyboard, which is ARTURIA's absolute best and also found on the MatrixBrute, all other buttons and controls are also of the highest quality and a joy to operate. If you connect KeyLab MKII to a computer, you will quickly appreciate the integrated preset and DAW control that works with most of the market's leading music programs, and of course the accompanying Analog Lab software. It even includes magnetic overlays for different DAWs, so the learning curve is minimal.
In or outside the "box"
Many USB/MIDI keyboards only work with a computer, but the KeyLab MKII is designed to cover any need, even for those running without a computer. Plug in a power supply (optional) and set up the KeyLab MKII with other MIDI devices via the DIN MIDI output, or control analogue synthesizers or modular systems via the 4 CV outputs. With as many as 5 pedal inputs, there are plenty of options for controlling even complex setups.
Comprehensive software bundle
In typical ARTURIA style, the KeyLab MKII comes with a stack of software. In addition to Analog Lab with thousands of presets from the award-winning V-Collection, you also get Piano V, ARTURIA's physical modeling grand piano, and a serial number for Ableton Live Lite.
