Expression

MiniLab MkII's keybed strikes the perfect balance between comfort, size, and expressivity. Its velocity-sensitive Slim-key design gives you more notes-per-inch than full-size keys, while also capturing the impact and emotion of your performance. A 2-octave range gives you plenty of room for melodies, basslines, and chords alike, with instant octave switching for when you need extra.

The accessible pads are velocity and pressure sensitive which will give your drums a great, dynamic feel. The pads also feature RGB backlighting to help you clearly identify whether you’re launching clips in Live, triggering drum sounds, or tweaking presets in Analog Lab. You can also switch between 2 different internal pad banks, enabling a full 16 drum sounds or audio clips.

A number of interface design appointments make MiniLab MkII the professional’s choice for performance and recording. Add a pitch bend or modulation using the ultra-responsive capacitive touch-strips, and plug in a sustain pedal to capture that authentic keyboard performance. Better still, use its built-in encoders to easily adjust your sound on the fly.
