Selling Your Arturia KeyLab Essential 61 MIDI Keyboard
Trade in your Arturia KeyLab Essential 61 with Gear4music. Whether you’re looking to scale up your studio setup or switch to something with more advanced features, this is a great time to upgrade. The KeyLab Essential 61 is ideal for those who want hands-on control over their music production, but you might find yourself ready for more keys or deeper integration with your DAW.
Consider swapping to an 88-key controller for a wider range of notes, or a model with weighted keys for a more piano-like feel. There are also options with more advanced control features if you're working with complex software or want extra creative flexibility.

Full Description
View Full DescriptionCreativity Reinvented
Music is at the heart of the KeyLab Essential. From the responsive velocity-sensitive keyboard to the intelligently assigned controls, you'll feel like everything just falls perfectly into place. It makes navigating your work a breeze thanks to the dedicated DAW Command Centre, and makes browsing your presets an exciting, inspiring experience. It takes away the sometimes tedious keyboard and mouse focus, and lets you spend more time creating, performing and playing.
Make Music Your Way
The KeyLab essential makes the technical side of creation as simple as possible, so you can focus on what really matters. KeyLab Essential is the result of careful research, with the aim of streamlining your creative process, giving you more time to express yourself through your creations and performances. The comprehensive set of music software included with the KeyLab Essential means the only thing you have to do is experiment. The creative workflow of the KeyLab Essential is quick and engaging, and you'll wonder how you ever got on without it.
Analog Sound Lab Software
This premium MIDI controller keyboard gives full access to Arturia's Analog Lab software; its pre-assigned controls make it an ideal solution for plug-and-play sound creation. Once the software is connected to the keyboard, you can put your mouse away and experience the same workflow as on a traditional hardware synthesizer.
With the Keylab 61 and Analog Lab software you'll discover a new depth of access to synth patches, you can now really get in and customize the huge library of internationally designed presets. A new multi-mode allows several sounds to be played simultaneously with the addition of effects, layer/split functions and a chord mode. In addition, the keyboard (like all of the Keylab series) can be easily used in any other MIDI compatible software and digital audio workstation.
