Features of the Arturia MiniLab MK2

If you're wondering what the MK2 means in this product name, it means this is the second version of Arturia's original MiniLab. The quality of the components has been improved, as well as the housing, the key bed, and the controls. It also comes with a collection of useful software including Analog Lab, a library of sounds based on Arturia softsynths that offer a wide range of analogue synths, and workstations, organs, string machines, pianos, and other vintage sounds.

Additional options

A grand piano may not be the first sound you think of when you think of a compact controller keyboard like this one, but it is included! It's not just any grand either—it's the top-notch Uvi Grand Piano Model D (a virtual Steinway). The MK2 also comes with Ableton Live Lite, a DAW that is highly popular in the EDM scene due to its live performance features. In short, the MiniLab MK2 is a reliable, complete product at a great price!
