Arturia's Astrolab - Ok King

video upload by Noir Et Blanc Vie

"Remember, pick what's best for you, the Arturia Astrolab is an amazing piece of hardware, BUT, I've owned and played quite possibly every live keyboardists keyboard and so some of the things I say will seem knit picky, but the Astrolab I feel is positioned as the perfect hybrid... it's cheaper, and less aimed at the touring player, but more at the performer player/producer player... someone who is keen on hearing the magic of the studio on the stage.

That said, yes, this is from a live players perspective, I'm not a journalist or a technical reviewer, those videos will be available, as a musician this is from my POV as to what works and what doesn't"
