Arturia ASTROLAB 61 Key Stage Keyboard w/MIDI DIN I/O, USB-C+Software

AstroLab 61 is a stage keyboard that holds 40 built-in synths and keyboards plus more than 1,600 presets on board, so a full set list plays back with no laptop in the signal chain. Eleven synthesis engines cover virtual analog, samples, wavetable, FM, granular, physical modeling, vector, harmonic, phase distortion, vocoder, and Karplus synthesis, which puts acoustic pianos, electric pianos, organs, vintage synths, and modern digital textures in one keyboard.

The 61-note keybed uses semi-weighted piano-size keys with aftertouch for dynamic playing across quiet passages and hard leads alike. A navigation wheel and screen handle browsing, 10 preset buttons recall your songs in a single press, and four macro knobs adjust Brightness, Timbre, Time, and Movement while you keep playing. Four more knobs control the 12 insert effects, including dedicated delay and reverb. Arpeggiator, MIDI looper, chord, and scale modes add parts on the fly, and multis with keyboard split layer two sounds across the keys.

Connections include MIDI DIN in and out, USB-C, a USB-A host port, balanced stereo input, and pedal inputs for sustain, expression, and two auxiliary functions. Bluetooth audio input and Wi-Fi cover wireless playback and remote control. Analog Lab Pro is included for building and editing your library at the computer, and AstroLab Connect manages playlists from a phone. V Collection and Pigments owners can load over 10,000 additional sounds.

At 21.83 lb in a metal chassis, AstroLab 61 fits club gigs, worship services, touring rigs, and studio sessions where one keyboard covers every part.
