A portable MIDI controller with creative features for inspired music production.
The Arturia MiniLab 3 limited-edition orange MIDI controller gives you an intuitive way to produce music with style. Its orange design and RGB-backlit pads provide a modern touch for any studio. The 25-note keyboard, eight rotary encoders and four sliders offer hands-on control of your DAW and virtual instruments. Real-time feedback on the built-in display helps you tweak settings easily. Whether you're just starting out or a seasoned pro, the MiniLab 3 is designed to spark your creativity.
Express Yourself With Velocity-Sensitive Pads
Two banks of eight pads let you play drum samples and trigger loops with dynamics. Their RGB lighting illuminates each pad to match your project's color scheme. In Chord mode, the pads play full chords so you can accompany yourself or jam with friends. The arpeggiator creates rhythmic patterns automatically for instant inspiration. With the MiniLab 3's pads at your fingertips, making music feels effortless.
Slim, Portable MIDI Keyboard
The 25-note keyboard provides a compact yet playable surface for recording MIDI data into your DAW. Its slim, lightweight design means you can take the MiniLab 3 anywhere to work on music when inspiration strikes. The keyboard's velocity sensitivity allows dynamic and expressive playing. Octave up/down buttons extend the range and the transpose feature shifts the entire keyboard up or down by semitones.
Tight Software Integration for an Intuitive Workflow
The MiniLab 3 works seamlessly with all major DAWs thanks to custom-written scripts. Control your DAW's transport, browse presets and tweak virtual instrument settings right from the controller. Save and recall up to eight DAW presets or your own user presets for fast setup. Analog Lab Lite, Ableton Live Lite and UVI Model D provide a suite of software for producing right out of the box.
Rugged, Sustainable Design Built to Last
Despite its small size, the MiniLab 3 is a high-quality MIDI controller built to handle life on the road. Its durable enclosure and keys stand up to heavy use. A five-year warranty and road-ready design ensure this controller will be your creative partner for years to come. To minimize environmental impact, the MiniLab 3 is constructed from at least 50% recycled plastics and comes in 100% recycled packaging.
