KeyLab Essential 49 mk3 MIDI Controller Keyboard, 49 Keys

It just works straight out of the box, no complicated programming needed, (although all the setup features can be customised to suit your needs), but with the free DAW, (Ableton live lite), and a couple of other DAW's I've tried, it just works. But I think the inclusion of Arturia analog lab 5 pro makes this controller stand out and become the best for value around, it's all you need to start producing and recording music straight away in one package, and there's more free stuff included if that's still not enough for you. It's such a comprehensive package, (I paid less than £200 from Amazon), and for less than £200, you won't beat it's value. I am very happy with my purchase and so far can honestly say it's all pro's and no cons. Terrific value, top class product, and an all in one solution to music production for beginner or pro.

Purchase for my son who is a producer. The keyboard is absolutely fantastic and very good value for money well recommended

I'm not a musician by any stretch of the imagination but wanted to buy a keyboard to explore some of the synth sounds of the 1980s. The keyboard is easy to setup and register and comes with tons of software to get you going. The Analog Lab V software you get gives you many 100s of vintage instruments to play around with and the Lite version of Ableton Live will let you sequence them into tracks. I was blown away by how good this all was and how easy it was to use. Probably the best thing I've bought for myself for years!

Really well made and integrated with Cubase and Ableton Live well. Integration with Analogue Lab is, as you would expect, fantastic. Keypad action is a bit stiff for my taste, maybe it will ease with time. Love the size as it's easy to move around but enough keys to play something with 2 hands. Nice it has a DIN Midi out port too.

Great keyboard. Arturia are top even the plugins.

Nice to use, plastic but sturdy and nice action on knobs and faders. Good integration with Arturia VSTs and easy to set up to control Native Instruments macro controls too. Display shows Arturia instrument selection and good integration with FL Studio

It has a great key bed, the features are built into the keyboard not software like other keyboards (NI Komplete Kontrol, etc) and it looks great. The features are very easy to use and the setup is minimal. The icing on the cake is that it comes with an amazing Analog Lab Pro V virtual instrument. It's a no-brainer considering the price.

Good for budget studios

What a great little controller and it comes with excellent software.

Geweldig apparaat. Kan veel te veel. Kost tijd om met de software erbij alles te leren, maar dat ligt aan mij.

Teclado lindo e com muitas funções nas daws

It's a good quality midi keyboard with a decent software bundle. It's relatively easy to configure. The tactile feel is average, not great, but not too soft.
