Arturia Minilab 37 Black

The Arturia MiniLab 37 Black is a professional 37-key USB-C MIDI controller that combines an expressive slim-key keyboard, responsive RGB pads, assignable controls, advanced performance tools and comprehensive DAW integration in a portable design for music production, recording and live performance.

A Compact Controller with Greater Musical Freedom

The MiniLab 37 Black expands Arturia's popular MiniLab series by offering a wider playing range while maintaining the compact footprint that producers appreciate. The additional keys allow more natural two-handed playing, making it easier to perform chords, bass lines and melodic phrases without constantly changing octaves.

Its streamlined layout keeps every performance control close to the keyboard, helping musicians stay focused on creativity whether working in a home studio, travelling with a laptop rig or performing live.

Designed for Expressive Performance

The 37-note velocity-sensitive slim keyboard delivers a responsive playing experience while preserving a compact form factor. The extra octave opens new possibilities for expressive performances and more complex arrangements, giving keyboard players greater flexibility without increasing the controller's overall size dramatically.

Capacitive pitch and modulation strips provide smooth real-time expression, while octave selection and semitone transpose allow quick access to the full MIDI note range.

Creative Control at Your Fingertips

MiniLab 37 Black provides immediate access to software instruments and production tools through eight assignable rotary encoders, four faders and eight RGB velocity and pressure-sensitive pads across two banks.

Creative performance features including Chord Mode, an integrated arpeggiator and Hold mode help generate ideas quickly, allowing users to build rhythms, harmonies and evolving patterns directly from the controller. The integrated display and browsing encoder simplify navigation through presets and parameter adjustments without interrupting the creative workflow.

Optimised for Modern Production

Arturia designed MiniLab 37 Black to integrate naturally with today's production environments. Dedicated control scripts provide seamless operation with Ableton Live, Logic Pro, Cubase, FL Studio, Bitwig Studio and many other professional DAWs.

Support for MCU and HUI protocols ensures wide compatibility, while Native Instruments NKS integration offers direct access to Komplete Kontrol software. Users can also store customised controller mappings in multiple user presets for personalised workflows.

Professional Software Included

MiniLab 37 Black arrives with an extensive collection of creative software, allowing musicians to start producing immediately.

Analog Lab Intro provides a large collection of synthesiser and keyboard sounds inspired by Arturia's renowned instrument library. Ableton Live Lite delivers a capable recording platform, while Komplete 15 Select adds a choice of premium virtual instruments. Loopcloud expands the available sound library with millions of royalty-free samples, and Melodics helps users improve their keyboard and finger drumming technique through interactive lessons.

Ready for Software and Hardware Setups

USB-C provides straightforward connection and power from computers and compatible iPads, while the rear-panel 5-pin MIDI output allows direct control of external synthesisers, drum machines and MIDI hardware.

A dedicated pedal input supports sustain pedals, expression pedals and footswitches, making MiniLab 37 Black equally comfortable in both studio and performance environments.

Built to Last

Arturia manufactures MiniLab 37 Black using at least 50% recycled plastic and supplies it in recyclable packaging to reduce environmental impact. A five-year manufacturer warranty further reinforces its long-term value, making it a dependable controller for musicians who require reliability as well as performance.
