Selected User Reviews For Arturia KeyLab 61 MKII Keyboard Controller (Black)
The difference is night and day between Nektar offerings and the ones I tried previously. I do think the Arturia is a bit more expensive (the Essential line is more comparable to the Nektars, but I haven't tried those), but you can tell how quality is when you play it. In spite of the fact that this 61 key keyboard is only semiweighted, the action is responsive online at any velocity level, which is not the case with some controllers. Yes, it is expensive, but the old adage of 'you get what you pay for' holds true here. You can get your hands on the controller at a great price if you don't already own Arturia's KeyLab software, because the soft synth is included, with an infinite selection of Overall, if it fits within your budget, it is recommended.
Honestly, I cannot get over how awesome this is. The build quality is excellent, and the functionality is great. This mode can be used to browse or switch between presets remotely within the included software, where you can tweak them as you wish. The knobs of the analog synths have labels that show what their default settings are A style mapping allows you to use the controller just like a standalone analog synth without having to look The DAW mode in Reaper was easy to set up, and it's seamless to switch from one to the other for productive work flow. In User mode you can customize (most) of the controls so that they work the way you want them to, much like a standard My favorite part of the LCD is that it provides just enough info so you can display other stuff on your computer screen (I often display sheet music on mine), but isn't overly redundant with the software This seems to be the best balance between the integrated ability but higher cost of a workstation keyboard and the range of possibilities of a MIDI controller. I would recommend it unless you dislike Arturia's software or insist that your sound making capability must be built into the unit.
Outside of that, it's amazing how helpful it is!.
It's not a toy, it's not a keyboard - it's an interface to your music workstation. The product can be used in a gig or a Make sure you get the right tool the first time around by spending the extra money.
Nevertheless, I have no idea what most of the features are like. I would say, on the whole, it's a great product.
It's easy to use and great to have as a midi controller.
A nice keybed, solid buttons, solid metal build and analog lab sounds very nice.
