ARTURIA MICROLAB | TRAVEL MIDI CONTROLLER WITH AMAZING KEYS - Taetro

Versatile 25-key MicroLab offers high quality keys, travel-friendly features, powerful included software, and integrated cable-tidy.

Music tech pioneers Arturia have announced a new controller keyboard that excites both new users and experienced professionals alike. MicroLab is a small-scale MIDI keyboard with smart design features that you can take anywhere.

MicroLab Key Features
25 “Slim Key” velocity sensitive keyboard
Octave, hold, and MIDI channel select buttons
Capacitive mod and pitch bend strips
Protective rubberized shell
3 color options
Integrated USB cable storage
Includes 3 great software titles: AnalogLab Lite, UVI Grand Piano Model D, Bitwig Studio 8-Track

What makes MicroLab so unique?

THE KEYS
MicroLab features the same professional slim-keys as their industry standard KeyStep controller. The keybeds found on budget controllers are often not very inspiring, but the 25 expressive, velocity-sensitive keys on MicroLab are simply a joy to play. The hold button gives you instant sustain, and by holding the shift key, you can access the “Chord” mode, letting you program in a chord and replay with just one finger.

THE FEATURES
The rubberized shell protects MicroLab from and bumps and scrapes when you’re on the move, and also features a recess that perfectly fits the USB cable, letting you store or pack it easily. MicroLab also includes capacitive mod and pitch controls that work in the same way that touchscreens do, these also let you swipe through and select presets with a tap. You can also quickly switch MIDI channels via the dedicated knob and numbered keys.

THE SHAPE
Arturia have designed this controller to work with you, and not get in the way. Because the cable is recessed, you can push it right up against other gear in your studio without cables getting in the way. It’s the width of the average plane and train tray table, and the shell stops it from sliding around. The keys are also recessed slightly into the body, nothing sticks out, so there’s nothing to catch when you slip it into your backpack.

THE SOFTWARE
MicroLab includes 3 great software titles for free:
Analog Lab Lite
Explore 600 fantastic presets taken from Arturia’s award winning V Collection series. Analog and digital synths, classic organs and pianos.

UVI Grand Piano Model D
A beautifully sampled Steinway for you to play using MicroLab’s expressive, velocity sensitive keys.

Bitwig Studio 8-Track
A powerful and innovative software studio to record, sequence, and mix your tracks. Make music right out of the box.

MicroLab is available everywhere.
Retail price: 79€/$"

AI Synthesis Ai008 Eurorack Matrix Mixer Module

4. AI008 DIY Eurorack Matrix Mixer build Guide

"Portland, OR, USA September 2, 2019 – AI Synthesis has released the AI008 Matrix Mixer in both a built and guaranteed version, as well as in kit and PCB/Panel format. The AI008 Matrix mixer has four inputs and three dedicated output, as well as a summed output. The module allows users to mix multiple inputs to multiple outputs, allowing for flexible routing of cv to multiple destinations, feedback FX patches, self-modulating oscillators, self-modulating cv sources, and many more applications. In 10HP.

Following the tradition of the other eurorack modules, the AI001 Multiple,AI002 Mixer, and AI003 Looping ADSR, the module has a full video how-to build guide. Unlike some DIY companies that focus solely on providing kits, AI Synthesis has an educational mission and our kits and documentation are aimed at those who have never held a soldering iron. PCBS are professionally manufactured, and all panels are aluminum and designed by Grayscale.

'In the year 2000, I was in college and obsessed with modular synths, but could barely afford to eat. I knew it was possible to build your own synth, but there wasn’t anyone, or anywhere to turn to for advice. In the past decade, much more information has been published online, and in 2013 I started down my path to DIY modular. Even with all of the information online, there still lacked a single, simple, comprehensive guide for those looking to build their own synthesizer. I want AI Synthesis to be that guide. Prior to building my own synth, I was a dreamer, after building my modular, I felt I had awoken. I want to help others do the same.'
