Arturia MicroLab [6/24] Introduction

1. INTRODUCTION

MicroLab is Arturia’s most compact and portable USB MIDI keyboard controller to date. It

has a 25-key, velocity-sensitive keyboard, integrated USB cable and features for perfect

integration with Arturia's Analog Lab Lite as well as software synthesizers from other

companies. The attention to detail poured into MicroLab makes it perfect for the on-the-go

musician that needs an ultra-light, ultra-portable keyboard.

Beyond being a great MIDI controller, MicroLab comes with our Analog Lab Lite software

that includes an impressive array of classic synth and keyboard sounds. The integration of

these two products results in a powerful hybrid synthesizer with excellent functionality and

great sound. There’s an affordable and simple way to upgrade Analog Lab Lite to the full

version of Analog Lab, which provides access to many more thousands of the sounds you

will hear in Analog Lab Lite! To upgrade, go to www.arturia.com/analoglab-update.

MicroLab also features our innovative pitch and modulation touch strips: low-profile

controllers that offer a different take on the traditional "wheel" design while maintaining their

expressiveness. The modulation strip can be assigned to control any CC of your choice and

the pitch strip offers a choice of ‘last position hold’ or ‘return to zero’ modes of operation.

The included MIDI Control Center software lets you configure various controls of MicroLab

in a simple and easy way directly from your computer. This lets you adapt MicroLab to suit

your musical needs.

Made for the musician on the go or the performer with limited space, the MicroLab gives

you a great depth of features in a portable package that is ultra-light and looks great. We

hope it will enable you to capture your musical ideas no matter where you happen to be.
