Arturia KeyLab 61 mk3 ULTRA MIDI Controller Keyboard | Orange Special Edition

Command Your Creative Space with Unmistakable Presence

The Arturia KeyLab 61 MK3 Ultra Edition is a premium, limited-edition workstation designed to be the ultimate centrepiece for modern music production and live stage performances. Sporting a striking "Ultra Orange" finish and black-accented skin, it matches the advanced internal architecture of Arturia's flagship controllers with a vibrant visual identity.

Redesigned Semi-Weighted Keys with Superior Touch Sensitivity
The KeyLab 61 MK3 features a reworked 61-note semi-weighted, synth-action keybed designed to balance expressive articulation with physical durability. Fine-tuning the key balance, weighting, and spring tension provides a highly convincing, bouncy playing experience. Equipped with channel aftertouch and release velocity, it allows you to command virtual instruments and hardware synthesisers with optimal expression.

Seamless DAW and Software Control to Modernise Your Workflow
Say goodbye to screen fatigue with an advanced physical command console centred around a 3.5-inch full-colour high-resolution screen. Nine touch-sensitive faders and rotary encoders automatically display exact parameter names and values on-screen the moment your fingers make contact. Deep, native integration scripts for industry-leading DAWs automatically map physical controls to virtual mixers, creating an uninterrupted creative flow.

Generative Creative Tools Built Directly into the Hardware
To streamline songwriting, this controller embeds a suite of powerful compositional features directly on the front panel. Intelligent Scale mode locks the keybed to your chosen musical key, ensuring perfect harmonic accuracy. Chord play mode triggers complex voicings with a single key, while the built-in arpeggiator integrates probabilistic randomness to generate evolving, semi-controlled musical sequences.
