Arturia Keylab 61 Black USB Keyboard Controller
Arturia Keylab 61 Black USB Keyboard Controller
The KeyLab series by Arturia combines the pro build quality of a classic synthesizer with the vast amount of control needed in today’s digital environment. KeyLab 61 is perfectly suited for the center of any studio, from project to professional.
KeyLab 61 combines a professional-grade MIDI keyboard with Novation’s powerful Analog Lab software environment. With 61 keys, 2 banks of 10 encoders, 2 banks of 9 faders, 10 assignable switches and 16 velocity- and pressure-sensitive pads, KeyLab 61 is perfect for studio and live use. Perfectly matched to the included Analog Lab software, with an integrated user interface and 6000 sounds from their V-Collection line of products, KeyLab 61 is more than a controller: it is an instrument unto itself.
The Best Of Synthesis Control
As a professional hybrid synthesizer, KeyLab 61 offers the immediacy of a hardware synthesizer combined with the flexibility of a software-based solution. The keyboard is entirely preassigned to work with the included Analog Lab software, giving you immediate and in-depth control over your sound. Change the filter cutoff, the resonance, adjust the 2 ADSR envelopes, and much more. But the KeyLab 61 also acts as a Universal MIDI controller, compatible with any third-party software and hardware. MIDI Assignments can be customized for virtually any form of MIDI technology using the LED screen or the included MIDI Control Center software.
Analog Lab
The included Analog Lab software offers 6000 legendary synthesizer sounds from Arturia’s vintage keyboard recreations: Mini V, Prophet V, CS-80 V, Jupiter-8 V, ARP 2600 V, Prophet VS, Modular V, Oberheim SEM V, Vox Continental V, Matrix-12, Solina V and Wurlitzer V. But Analog Lab goes further by integrating perfectly with KeyLab 61, resulting in an ergonomic interface for tweaking the presets. Owners of the full versions of the software instruments can edit the sounds in depth by accessing the entire synthesizer’s interface from within Analog Lab. Finally, Analog Lab also includes 200 Multi patches, organized by musical genres. These allow you to play 2 synth sounds simultaneously, play chords, apply effects… Everything needed for inspiration and creativity is right there.
