Presentation
In addition to the USB port and DIN MIDI input and output, Arturia has equipped its KeyLab mkII with one input and four CV outputs to integrate controllers into the modular world or connect them to your compatible synths.
The KeyLab mkII offers two customizable chord modes and three operation modes: DAW to control your STAN, with transport, track management and navigation controls; Analog Lab to easily access thousands of instrument sounds from Arturia's famous collection via automatic assignment of keyboard pots, faders and buttons, dedicated Category buttons and tag navigation with the jog wheel. Finally, a User mode allows you to customize all controls to send the MIDI CC messages you want to control the settings of your virtual instruments. You can save up to 10 configurations.
And to make your life even easier, Arturia provides ten magnetic covers and presets for the most popular STANs!
Information
To go further...
In recent years, the main element of master keyboards has been somewhat neglected. The quality of the keys has dropped to the point of limiting the possibilities of expression that we are entitled to expect from a controller. That's why Arturia has completely redesigned its keyboard to offer a responsive touch, sensitive to velocity and aftertouch.
Never before has a master keyboard offered so many possible controls: the Keylab mkII offers both Midi plugs to connect your synthesizers, expanders and other digital effects, the essential USB/Midi plug to work with your software, but also 4 CV outputs that will allow you to connect and control old analog synthesizers and even modular systems!
To our great delight, Arturia's engineers are all musicians. And it shows! The Keylab mkII's user interface benefits both from the experience acquired with their previous controller ranges and from a long reflection by experienced instrumentalists. In the end, never before has a master keyboard been so quick to learn to use while offering so many possibilities.
The Keylab mkII is supplied with the software licenses: Analog Lab 3, Piano V (full version) and Ableton Live Lite. Using this master keyboard, you will be able to play with more than 6000 sounds from legendary synthesizers and also play with Arturia's modeled piano to record everything in the most famous DAW: Ableton Live Lite.

Created in 1999, Arturia is a French brand specialized in the development of software, virtual instruments and electronic music instruments. Recent products include synthesizers that can substitute different modeled analog modules, such as a filter bank from one synth and an oscillator from another, to create new sounds, as well as drum machines that contain both models of old units and new hybrid systems. Their biggest successes are surely the Minimoog emulation, Jupiter 8V, CS-80, Prophet 5 but also their hybrid synths of the Analog Experience series.
