Built on Arturia's best-selling MiniLab formula, the new 37-key controller adds expanded playability, hands-on DAW control and a full software bundle.

The jump from 25 to 37 keys gives players more room for two-handed playing, wider chord voicings and bassline-plus-melody arrangements without adding much to the overall footprint. Arturia describes the chassis as wider yet more shallow, keeping controls close while fitting into tight studio setups and mobile rigs.
Beyond the keybed, the MiniLab 37 packs in a 2×4 stacked RGB pad layout for finger drumming and clip launching, eight rotary encoders, four sliders, transport controls, a mini display and a clickable browsing knob. Built-in tools include an arpeggiator, Chord mode, Hold, octave control and semitone transpose. Up to five user presets let you customise the controller for different rigs or workflows.
On the integration side, DAW presets cover eight major platforms – Ableton Live, Logic Pro, Cubase, FL Studio, Bitwig, Reason, Pro Tools and Digital Performer – with automatic parameter mapping on connection. Native Kontrol Standard (NKS) compatibility is also on board, along with full integration with Arturia’s Analog Lab for preset browsing and smart-assigned controls.
Connectivity includes a USB-C port (class compliant, low power – compatible with Apple iPad via camera connection kit), MIDI DIN output and a control input for sustain pedal, expression pedal or footswitch.
