Extended Keyboard Range
The KeyLab Essential 88 Mk3 features 88 semi-weighted keys that mimic premium stage keyboards, providing a vast range for complete musical expression whether in the studio or live performance.
The KeyLab Essential 88 Mk3 features 88 semi-weighted, hybrid synth-piano keys, offering the same comfortable waterfall keybed experience as premium stage keyboards. This extended range allows musicians to express their creativity fully in the studio or on stage.
This model introduces new creative tools, including Scale Mode, Chord Mode, and an Arpeggiator, which streamline the processes of composition, songwriting, and beat-making. These features make it easier for musicians to translate their ideas into fully realised tracks, enhancing workflow efficiency.
Arturia has designed the KeyLab Essential 88 Mk3 with custom scripts for deep integration with popular DAWs such as Ableton Live, Logic Pro X, and FL Studio. Producers can take full control of their software environment directly from the keyboard, simplifying production.
The KeyLab Essential 88 Mk3 includes Analog Lab Pro, which offers 2000 presets beyond vintage sounds to include unique hybrids, modern synths, and orchestral sounds. This expanded sound library provides a wealth of options for any genre or style of music production.
The keyboard’s controls have been upgraded with RGB-backlit pads that are both velocity and pressure-sensitive, contextual buttons and a bright 2.5-inch LCD screen that provides real-time feedback. These enhancements make navigation and control more intuitive and responsive.
To further support musicians of all levels, the KeyLab Essential 88 Mk3 comes with an expanded software package, including Analog Lab Pro, two premium pianos (UVI Model D and NI’s The Gentleman), and subscriptions to Loopcloud and Melodics, offering a rich array of tools for beginners and professionals alike.
