help Arturia KeyLab 49 Mk3 FAQ

What software comes with the Arturia KeyLab 49 Mk3?

The KeyLab line is designed to integrate tightly with Arturia's Analog Lab software. That matters because the controller's knobs, pads, and screen are meant to browse and shape Arturia instrument presets quickly.

Does the Arturia KeyLab 49 Mk3 have aftertouch?

Yes, the KeyLab 49 Mk3 is specified with aftertouch on its 49-key keyboard. Aftertouch lets you add expression after pressing a key, such as vibrato or filter movement in a software synth.

Who is the KeyLab 49 Mk3 mainly for?

It is mainly for producers who want a studio controller with keys, pads, encoders, and DAW transport controls in one unit. The 49-key size is a middle ground between compact 25-key controllers and full 88-key piano controllers.

Does the KeyLab 49 Mk3 work outside Arturia software?

Yes. It is a MIDI controller, so it can control DAWs and third-party software instruments through MIDI and USB, not only Analog Lab.
