Arturia MiniLab 3 Hybrid Keyboard Controller Champagne

The Arturia MiniLab 3 hybrid keyboard controller puts tactile music creation front and center with a compact, stylish design that stands out in any workspace. This new champagne colorway adds a fresh look to the lineup, pairing premium finish with functional control for beatmakers, students and performers. With 25 velocity-sensitive slim keys, RGB-lit pads and hands-on encoders, the unit makes it easy to record, tweak and launch sounds. Plug-and-play USB-C keeps setup simple, while the bundled software suite—including Analog Lab V and Ableton Live Lite—means users can start producing or performing right out of the box. Lightweight and portable, this controller fits in a backpack and powers up fast, making it practical for bedroom setups, rehearsals or gigs where style and reliability matter. Velocity-Sensitive Keys Respond to Touch MiniLab 3 uses slim, synth-style keys that respond to how hard or soft play. The velocity-sensitive design translates finger pressure into dynamic volume and timbre changes, bringing realism to every note. This means players can use subtle touches for mellow sections or dig in for louder parts without tweaking controls. For recording piano lines, lead synths or bass, the keyboard makes each take sound expressive and natural. Hands-On Pad and Encoder Controls Shape Sound Fast Eight backlit, pressure-sensitive pads let users launch samples, finger drum or trigger sequences without reaching for a mouse. The pads glow in RGB colors, so users can see at a glance what’s active, even in a dark room. Eight rotary encoders and four sliders offer fast adjustment of filter sweeps, mixer levels or effect parameters. These tactile controls speed up workflow, making it easier to experiment and refine mixes during live sessions. Plug-and-Play Setup Simplifies DAW Integration The controller connects with a single USB-C cable and instantly syncs to most major DAWs, including Ableton, Logic and FL Studio. Scripts auto-map the unit’s controls to software functions, so users can adjust tracks, mute channels or assign macros with no extra configuration. Dedicated transport buttons add quick access for recording, playback and navigation. With built-in arpeggiator, chord mode and touch sensors for pitch and modulation, the model supports complex performances without extra equipment. Eco-Designed Build Extends Lifespan This unit features a chassis made from at least 50% recycled material, and ships in fully recyclable cardboard packaging. The controller’s compact footprint and sturdy construction help it stand up to daily use and travel. A five-year warranty covers defects, supporting long-term reliability for students, producers and working musicians. Every aspect of the build is focused on lasting function, with less impact on the environment. MiniLab 3 Hybrid Keyboard Controller Delivers Direct Creative Control Students, beatmakers and live performers will find the controller’s keys and pads make it easy to build tracks and tweak sounds without breaking flow. The quick DAW integration and compact body let users move from desk to stage with no hassle. Plugging in, loading up Analog Lab and triggering samples happens in seconds—so ideas become tracks faster. With the new champagne colorway, creative setups get a visual upgrade alongside real-world control and speed.
