With Arturia's unmatched dedication in synthesizer research and design, it's no surprise that the latest iteration of their mini MIDI machine would elevate itself from its predecessor. The MiniLab 3 continues the 25-key arrangement, boasting a slender profile and weighing just over three pounds. An ergonomic form factor includes two capacitive touch sensors for pitch and modulation control, respectively. Eight touch- and pressure-sensitive pads are broken into two banks, totaling 16 fully assignable, RGB-backlit slots. Eight rotary encoders are accompanied by four high-quality sliders to accommodate versatile control schemes. A new mini display includes a clickable browsing knob, providing real-time feedback on tweaks and mods made to any one of the MiniLab 3's 500 presets. Intuitive functionality allows for straightforward control of transposition by octave or semitone, hold and chord modes, and the built-in arpeggiator. Custom DAW scripts are tailored for integration with major workstations, alongside seamless compatibility with Arturia's extensive library of software instruments. The USB-C connection provides painless use with nearly any system. The MIDI 5-pin DIN output quickly connects you to external MIDI gear, and the external control input means greater expressive expansion.
Newcomers, professionals, and musicians at any level in between will find themselves at home with the Minilab 3. Its plug-and-play compatibility includes custom-written DAW scripts, ensuring seamless connectivity with your preferred software. Armed with 25 velocity-sensitive keys, you'll experience new dimensions of sounds and textures with the versatile and inspiring Analog Lab. Fully customizable control schemes let you play and perform your way, including ditching a computer altogether! Plus, all 500 of its carefully curated sounds can be deeply modified and manipulated without the need for an external DAW, delivering an uncompromising array of searing leads, pulsing basses, and lush pads.
Slim keys and a lightweight housing aren't the Minilab 3's only mobility-minded considerations, though they contribute to its compact and transportation-friendly design. Flexible connectivity options include a 5-pin MIDI DIN output and a USB-C port, alongside a 1/4-inch control input for use with your choice of pedal, sustain, expression, and more. Its USB-C connection can be used to integrate with DAWs or computer-based systems, as well as deep access to MIDI Control Center parameters. With the MIDI 5-pin DIN output, you can seize control of any compatible device, layering and relaying progressions, arpeggiation, and expression controls into a chorus of synthesizer soundscapes. Real-time feedback on patch modification and design lets you stay immersed in the sounds as you craft aural vistas designed to dazzle in any environment.
