Arturia KeyLab 49 mk3 MIDI-koskettimet White

Premium MIDI Controller Keyboard for Studio and Live Use

The Arturia KeyLab 49 mk3 White is a 49-key universal MIDI controller designed to sit at the center of a modern music production workflow. It combines a hybrid semi-weighted keybed with a full-color display, touch-sensitive controls, and deep Analog Lab Pro integration, giving producers and performers immediate hands-on access to sounds, mixes, and DAW functions. The white finish and aluminum chassis with wooden side panels give this controller a distinctive studio presence.

What Sets the KeyLab 49 mk3 Apart

Unlike entry-level MIDI keyboards, this model features a 3.5-inch full-color LCD display that shows preset names, parameter values, and Analog Lab instrument artwork in real time. The 12 RGB backlit pads are both pressure- and velocity-sensitive, supporting finger drumming, clip launching, and custom chord triggers. Touch-sensitive rotary encoders and faders allow players to interrogate parameter values without altering them, a workflow refinement borrowed from high-end mixing consoles.

Keybed and Playing Feel — Velocity-Sensitive Performance

The keybed is the primary interface between the player and the music, and this controller delivers a hybrid semi-weighted action that balances piano-like resistance with synth-style responsiveness. Aftertouch and release-off velocity add expressive depth for evolving pads, lead lines, and dynamic performances.

• Keys: 49 velocity-sensitive keys — full four-octave range suitable for two-handed playing and split layers
• Dynamic keyboard technology featuring aftertouch and release velocity captures both initial strike and key-release nuances for superior expressivity.
• Pitch Bend: Yes, dedicated wheel — paired with a modulation wheel for expressive lead playing

Controls and Interface — Hands-On Sound Shaping

Every knob, fader, and pad on this controller is mapped to meaningful functions, reducing the need to reach for the mouse during a session. The full-color display and contextual buttons streamline preset browsing and parameter editing directly from the hardware.

• Display: 3.5-inch full-color LCD — shows Analog Lab presets, parameter values, and DAW feedback
• Encoders: 9 touch-sensitive rotary encoders — duplicate Analog Lab UI for real-time sound tweaking
• Faders: 9 faders with touch sensitivity — control track levels, envelopes, and instrument parameters
• Pads: 12 RGB pressure-sensitive pads — assignable to MIDI notes, clips, or finger-drum kits
