Previous equipment: 61 key MkII Going from the MKII to the 61 key MkIII was the best decision I have made in a long time. The key bed is why I bought it and the key bed is why I absolutely think this is right one for me. The changes they made show that Arturia have listened to the criticisms by the users. It feels to me like a perfect middle ground that should be the new standard for non piano mimicking keys. The MkII had key wobble and the black keys were slippery and narrowed too much at the top making hard to hit. I'm already playing better in just a few minutes of play. Also the nobs and sliders all have better resist to improve minor changes in adjustments. Thank you Arturia, this is an amazing product.

My 13-year-old son saved up his chore money to buy this Arturia KeyLab 49 mk3, and he absolutely loves it. He’s been creating music nonstop since it arrived. The keys feel super good — more like a real piano than a cheap, fake keyboard — and that makes it even more enjoyable to play. It’s also really compact and doesn’t take up much space, which is perfect for his room. The controls are easy to use, and the included Analog Lab Pro software really opens up a ton of creative possibilities. It’s inspiring to see how much he enjoys making music with it — definitely a great investment for anyone starting out or growing their skills.

Downloading the scripts for logic gave me some trouble. Also make sure you switch to daw mode on the in and out on the control surface settings. Without the setup inconveniences this is 5 stars for me. Once I got it working I was super happy with this thing. Also don’t use a usb hub plug it in direct.

The Arturia KeyLab 61 mk3 Black - 61 Key USB MIDI Keyboard Controller with Analog Lab Pro Software is excellent. I bought it used and did not expect a great keyboard. It is well worth the money, especially with the Analog Lab Pro software. I had to reset everything on the keyboard. But after resetting everything, it was excellent. Everything functions as advertised. I highly recommend this Arturia MIDI keyboard controller.

Bought this for playing with hardware synths for the most part and it's perfect for my needs. Well built with a nice synth action keyboard. Seems solid and built to last.

I like the build quality and functionality, but the keyboard action is not for serious players. I'm a pianist and was hoping to use this as an organ VST controller, so I wanted a light key action. But I actually find these KeyLab keys heavier than those of my piano (which are weighted in the standard concert range). There's a continuous resistance pushing against your fingertips while you depress a key, such that it's a bit tiring to keep it held down. Also the increase in resistance as you move from the front of a key to the back is outrageous. Playing an E-flat triad, for example, is basically not going to happen, not with your thumb anyway. I do like the usb-c connectivity and the other controls it offers. I also like that my Macbook recognized the MIDI connection right away and was able to start receiving MIDI signals right away, even without any configuration or installation. But since it's primarily marketed as a keyboard, and it falls so far short of the mark there, I don't feel any additional stars are warranted.

Arturia KeyLab 61 mk3 has solid construction and high-quality finishes and is equipped with a decent semi-weighted keyboard. Integration with Analogue Lab Pro is fantastic, slim and compact layout, tons of customization options. The keyboard is tethered to your DAW and can’t be used stand-alone without a laptop. The browser functionality allows for quickly scanning through types, instruments, genres and banks of presets, with a visual representation of the instrument themselves via the color screen.

O kadar tatlı biri ki ısırasım geliyor. Teşekkürler arturia

Un teclado fantástico. Se integra a la perfección con Ableton 12. El acabado se siente de buena calidad. La sensación y la sensibilidad de las teclas es genial. Muy contento con la compra

Purchased the Keylab 61 MK3 variant. The item was delivered 3 days prior to the delivery date. This product is capable of doing almost everything a musician desires to do. Just go for it.

Great product. I don’t think I’ll ever buy another hardware synth. The Keylab 61 Mk3 complements my Juno-X Roland as tier 2. Analog Lab V includes a lot of great synth sounds, and simplifies my Roland patches. The Keylab integrates well with Ableton as a plug-in, and I have multiple options for live or studio laptop control and routing. As I was setting up Arturia playlists I started to notice that Analog Lab is weak on acoustic instruments like horns and sax, but I guess that’s what the Arturia Store is for!

Très bon clavier, idéal avec la V collection.
