Arturia Keylab 61 Review: An awesome midi keyboard

Hi, in this video I do a Arturia Keylab 61 Review. I start the video by talking a little bit about the main buttons, faders and knobs in the keyboard and also some of the features that I like in the keyboard. I then show you some of the sounds in the Arturia Analog Lab 4. I really enjoy this keyboard and it's a good addition to studio. I was looking to upgrade my keyboard and after looking around and see several reviews, this was the most compelling one for me. Let me know what you think about the review in the comments bellow.

Wow, that’s awesome! The plugin bundle just makes it a lot better.

[@DailyBeatsPt]

Hi Thomas, the plugin bundle was what made me buy the keyboard. For sure it made it a lot better. 👊😁

@@DailyBeatsPt bro does this keyboard have in built styles

[@ericksiqueiros1303]

@@jacobjoseph4473 no, its a midi controler, doesn't have sounds

[@yanismezizene1948]

Amazing review thank you so much

[@JRHARDY]

Excellent review. Thanks :)

[@DailyBeatsPt]

Glad it was helpful!

[@danielfulop]

I don't quite get it... does the keyboard (and the 6000+ presets) work without a laptop? I'd like something that I could also just plug into my speakers and play right away

[@suyashmishra6083]

No

[@joaorodrigues2335]

Como contornar os problemas de integração com o fl studio? Ótima review;)

[@dosbentee]

Is it airplane carry on friendly especially when flying economy class? What does it weigh? Can it be a beginner piano?

[@tonyedd5326]

the vid was slow and boring at first.....but I didn't realize this was a comprehensive detailed professional appraisal ....very good.....thank you

[@DR87408]

Hi, thanks for the review. Is the plugin software compatible with Ableton do you know?

[@Potato_Twin]

yes

[@CAESAR_IS_GOD_mohammadisaloser]

which midi keyboard should I get - the Akai MPK261 ($400) or the Arturia MKII 61 ($550) ? Anybody know which one is overall better? I keep researching and can't decide need an experienced user opinion. was thinking maybe get the Arturia MKII and an AkaiMPCstudio($270) for the best of both worlds? or would that be stupid to get both? I am a Graphic/3D Artist and need to make music for my videogame.

[@Cobretti-50]

I have the mk2 if you have questions ask

[@CAESAR_IS_GOD_mohammadisaloser]

@@Cobretti-50 I got the MK2 with a sustain and expression pedal any suggestions for devices to plug into this work of "ART"uria ? like what works well and adds the coolest functionality maybe?

[@silviosanchez3635]

how do you make your illumination? very nice atmosphere and nice Chanel hahah

[@silentscope7440]

Hello, do you have the template/midi file for using this keyboard with FL Studio? My keylab essential does not work fully. I cannot use the pitch wheel and mod wheel out of the box and the big knob and buttons near do not work for other plugins.

[@maryannspasopoulos442]

Do the sounds work if not plugged into a computer? Purchasing as a Christmas gift.

[@pb25193]

No

[@DailyBeatsPt]

Sorry for the late reply. As Partha mentioned it does not work without a computer. It includes enough software and sounds but always with a computer.

[@larrymarso4492]

This is the "essential" (budget) version.

[@cubaleyenda]

Hi!!?question! Where can I buy a hard case? I am thinking to buy one and travel with it and I am afraid that it can break!

[@DailyBeatsPt]

Hi Freddie, that is a good question. I suppose you can buy one at amazon or any music store like Thomann or MusicStore. You should for sure get one if you are going to travel with it 😊

[@truthdeeds3612]

Hello, I would appreciate your responds. Should I go for a roland gw8 or a keylab 61 ?

[@sportcoat5756]

Keylab….

[@Neerano]

How do the keys on this keylab compare to lower end keyboards like Yamaha Psr 473? Better or worse?

[@marcdraaijers3230]

Don't know if your question is still relevant, but I can answer now. My son owns a Yamaha PSR 463, which is I think is the predecessor of the 473. I recently bought the Arturia Keylab 61 essential. The keys of the keylab are much better in every aspect. They feel much sturdier. When the Yamaha came in I was also a bit disappointed about the keys of the Yamaha, they don't feel solid and even the space between the keys is not exactly the same between every key.

[@Neerano]

@@marcdraaijers3230 Thank you.

[@delatronics3257]

I live in Brazil now but unfortunately it seems hard to find these (especially in white).

[@DailyBeatsPt]

I did a quick search on Amazon and indeed there are no Essentials 61. Too bad. I think there are some m-audio keyboards in the same price range with great reviews too.

[@AmaanKhanOfficial3]

Sir how to on light animation please tell me

[@easyguitarclicks6716]

Hi sir.. does it has a built in sounds?

[@candyman3537]

Is it possible to output to amplifier?

[@braulindisla-elburrodelaba5361]

I don't use synth sounds thanks for the review

[@paullebon323]

Why would anyone buy the essentials version?

[@spyofborg]

Hi Paul! Good question! Because in some parts of the world, we do not have the same salary as yours, so we sadly have to look for more value options instead of high quality. So, poor people and student will most likely like this option. For reference: I earn around 2500 USD a year. I hope it makes sense now.

[@nashrequioma7242]

is the key in full size?

[@sirg6465]

Yea

[@ubaidaabid6879]

Thank you.. Can I use it for arabic tunes?

[@legganty]

How does it integrate with Ableton 10?

[@DailyBeatsPt]

It's plug and play. You just enable it in the midi settings and you are good to go. It is very simple to setup and use 😊

[@legganty]

@@DailyBeatsPt Thank you Daily Beats, I have an older M-Audio Code 61 and I'm looking to purchase a newer unit. Your vid was very helpful

[@stmayhem1]

@@DailyBeatsPt do all the knobs work straight away? On Arturia Minilab you first need to hit Shift+Pad 8 , it took forever to work out, as it's not in the manual.

[@khale4120]

Can I use keylab 61 be like an organ ?

[@vadimkorob2689]

But from the title I’ve expected that video will be about Keylab NO Keylab ESSENTIAL :( Kinda waist of time…

[@paullebon323]

Essentials? Pffft 😒

[@tonyedd5326]

who is this dude? he must work for arturia and been in product development.....c'mon you were? right? be honest.....come clean.....how could you learn all that crap so soon? ......

[@GapeGang]

Hahahahahaha

[@meziahdanieljolley8842]

This is not an Arturia Keylab 61. This is a Keylab 61 Essential which is not even the same instrument.
