The Arturia KeyLab 49 MkII Black is a professional 49-key MIDI controller keyboard designed to provide hands-on control over software instruments, DAWs, MIDI hardware and modular equipment. Combining Arturia's Pro-Feel keyboard with aftertouch, extensive performance controls and a rugged aluminium chassis, it provides a comprehensive centrepiece for studio production and live performance.

Why choose the Arturia KeyLab 49 MkII?

• 49-note Arturia Pro-Feel keyboard with velocity sensitivity and aftertouch
• 16 velocity and pressure-sensitive RGB performance pads
• 9 faders and 9 rotary encoders for hands-on software control
• Dedicated DAW transport and navigation controls
• MIDI, USB and extensive CV/Gate connectivity for software and hardware setups

Expressive 49-key Pro-Feel keyboard

At the heart of the KeyLab 49 MkII is Arturia's 49-note Pro-Feel keybed, featuring velocity sensitivity and aftertouch for expressive playing. Dedicated pitch bend and modulation wheels provide additional real-time control, while octave, transpose and chord functions make it easy to adapt the keyboard to different instruments and performances.

Hands-on control for your music software

The KeyLab 49 MkII provides 9 rotary encoders, 9 faders and 16 RGB backlit performance pads, giving you direct control over virtual instruments, effects and your DAW. The pads are both velocity and pressure sensitive, making them suitable for playing drums, triggering samples and other performance functions.

Dedicated DAW integration

Dedicated DAW controls allow you to manage transport, tracks and other common recording functions directly from the keyboard. KeyLab MkII supports MCU and HUI protocols and provides dedicated integration with popular recording software, helping reduce the amount of time spent switching between the controller and your computer.

Deep Arturia software integration

KeyLab MkII was designed for close integration with Arturia Analog Lab. Dedicated controls allow you to browse presets and categories directly from the keyboard, while the faders and encoders provide immediate access to important sound parameters. A built-in LCD display provides useful information without requiring constant reference to your computer screen.

Control MIDI and modular hardware

The KeyLab 49 MkII isn't limited to computer-based production. Traditional 5-pin MIDI In and Out connections allow it to control external MIDI instruments, while four CV/Gate outputs and a CV input provide extensive connectivity with modular and semi-modular synthesizers.

Extensive pedal connectivity

Alongside dedicated sustain and expression connections, the KeyLab MkII provides three additional assignable auxiliary pedal inputs. This makes it possible to build a comprehensive performance setup with footswitches and expression pedals controlling different parameters.

Built for studio and stage

A rugged aluminium chassis gives the KeyLab 49 MkII a substantial feel suited to both permanent studio setups and live performance. Despite its extensive controls and connectivity, the 49-key format remains compact enough for studios where space is limited.

Customisable control

In addition to dedicated Analog Lab and DAW modes, a User mode allows custom MIDI controller assignments to be created for your own instruments and workflow. Up to 10 User presets can be configured, providing flexibility when controlling different software and hardware setups.
