The sad thing is, this is close to something I pondered them making, but, instead of giving us a full set of knobs and controls in a hardware Pigments, they reduced the number of controls from the Keylab and stuck with the Analog Lab approach. It still has some conveniences, but it's more cost efficient just to get a Keylab. Maybe a smaller, more MicroKorg priced edition is coming down the road.

That’s exactly the problem : people are wowed by some flashy design and have to buy it immediately ( and max their credit cards ) on a mediocre product that is completely redundant . The new market angle Now is : get away from computers , just turn this big knob with a tiny screen , we even get more near sighted after smart phones . They want to sell the idea it’s practically a stand alone , but you still need an iPad or a laptop to really find your way around their affiliate software of 1000 s of still virtual sound , and who wants to wear a headphone set all the time , so you need also a decent speaker amplifier set . Sorry if I’m whining but after so many KZbin videos trying to inform myself for a new good midi controller - which I haven’t found yet - I’ve had it with this plastic with fake or real wood trim miracles they spew out like it’s iPhone 32 every 6 months

If I could create a setlist like the kronos on my phone and if the pitch bend and modwheel where to the left, it could be interesting. I'd need a footswitch pedal to transition my setlists and more hands on controls to warrant buying this, but hardware for software instruments is exactly what we want, it's just not in a package that's usable for keyboard players.

But...if I have a computer and a midi keyboard, you can run any plugin, from any supplier, not just Arturia's plugins. And while cool looking, I can't manipulate the plugins in the Astrolab anywhere near as much as I could with a PC running that plugin and... it would appear that you can only use Arturia's plugins. So.... that's not really a deal at all. AND... you can use any of Arturia's plugins with your computer, AND... you can fully manipulate them. You can also use that computer to do "other" things. $1,600 buys you a pretty sweet computer these days. It ends by comparing Astrolab to very expensive Nords, and disses some popular sequencers / gloveboxes pretending that they just play "plugins too" ignoring the fact that they are full on samplers, sample editors, synth engines and multitrack sequencers, etc. etc... This is a sales video for a newbies keyboard.

I know it must sound amazing. I own almost all of Arturia's patches. Having said that, there are two ways to make stage keys accessible. One is the Nord method. All controls up front and tactile. The other is a huge touch screen. Even the RD 2000 doesn't quite get the accessibility thing done. There is absolutlely no excuse for any new stage board not employing one method or the other. I am sure it is a quality build but it is still a studio board on steroids. Thanks for the video. OK you are saying the same thing I just said at this very moment.

Is it possible to run multiple sound presets simultaneously in different key zones? Arturia's Analog Lab only supports two sound layers in one preset (as far as I know). My current live setup is based on a MacBook with Mainstage, where I can set up multiple zones with multiple instances of AUs, which I definitely make heavy use of. At the same time, Arturia's sounds are so good that I've been using their plugins 90% of the time over the last few years. In order to have a more compact setup (ideally without a laptop) on stage, it would be very helpful if at least 2-3 Arturia presets could be spread across the keyboard.
