Arturia KeyLab 88 mk3 88-key Keyboard Controller – White

They say the third time’s a charm, and that axiom holds true in the case of Arturia’s KeyLab 88 mk3 — an apparatus of untethered expression, thanks to its full-size, hammer-action keybed. The tertiary iteration of the company’s iconic controller line brings forth an amalgamation of upgraded controls, expression, and included software tools, leaving producers and performers alike with an armory of professional-level musical utilities. A new 3.5-inch full-color display is the KeyLab mk3’s immediately noticeable feature, servicing onboard integration with Arturia Software, Ableton Live, FL Studio, and more for solid visual reference during performances and recording sessions. For this 88-key iteration, Arturia’s supplied dedicated stands for sheet music and a laptop or other smart device. Additionally, the mk3 has been fitted with USB-C power to ensure compatibility with most modern and future setups, complete with all required pedal inputs for excellent integration with any pre-existing rig. Aside from every updated asset onboard the KeyLab mk3, it has retained its sturdy aluminum structure and meticulous wooden paneling — a tip of the cap to Arturia’s constructional roots while ensuring top-tier rigidity for any playing environment.

Fully weighted keys, exacting precision, and nuanced expression

Contrasted with its series siblings, Arturia’s KeyLab 88 mk3 was built for bona fide piano performance without sacrificing the full force of artistic possibilities that Arturia’s virtual-synth-laden ecosystem supplies. To that end, the KeyLab 88 mk3 is outfitted with a state-of-the-art Fatar TP/110 keybed, honed and fine-tuned by Arturia to maximize control and expression. What’s more, the 88 hammer-action keys are fully weighted and designed with complete aftertouch compatibility. Real piano feel meets satisfying tactility and unrivaled precision, allowing for expressive, nuanced performances that span all manners of keyboard possibilities.

Control beyond the keys

Updated and designed to retain the utmost in Arturia’s latest playability standards, the KeyLab mk3 is armed with a slew of performance appointments, taking the velocity-sensitive and aftertouch-capable control of its 88-key array to dazzling heights of evocative expression. Its nine faders and 360-degree rotary potentiometers are touch-sensitive and completely customizable, ensuring your sonic setup is suited to your style and uncompromising in control. Plus, 12 pressure-sensitive performance pads complement the onboard sustain and auxiliary pedal inputs, further driving personal control and sonic manipulation to soaring new heights. Take it from astute Arturia advocates: the KeyLab mk3 is among the company’s most enterprising controllers to date.

Immediate instrumental potential

As with past KeyLab models, the mk3 arrives with no shortage of software and instrumentation to ensure immediate creativity right out of the gate. Kick things off with an included copy of Ableton Live Lite, a professional-level DAW servicing a bounty of onboard tools for seamless arrangement and composition control. Within, feel free to include the KeyLab mk3’s bundled NI The Gentlemen, Loopcloud, and Melodics software — not to mention an all-access pass to Arturia’s Analog Lab Pro software, containing over 2,000 vintage-inspired and contemporary instrument presets for instant inspiration and control over your sound. Topped off with built-in integration with all the aforementioned programs, the KeyLab mk3 makes defining, managing, and manifesting your creative ideas a breeze.
