Available in Black, White, and a limited edition Champagne finish, MiniLab 3 serves as a practical gateway into Arturia's wider software ecosystem while remaining fully compatible with all major DAWs.
Its plug-and-play approach makes it easy for first-time creators to connect via USB, open a DAW, and start recording with pre-mapped controls and transport support already in place. Arturia's MiniLab 3 is designed to integrate smoothly into both software and hybrid setups. USB-C provides bus power and a direct connection to computers or iPads, while a full-size 5-pin MIDI output allows the controller to drive external synthesizers and sound modules.

“The MiniLab 3 keyboard has an excellent positive action that’s consistent across the keys with minimal mechanical noise. The pitch bend and mod wheel are the touch-sensitive slider type and these work incredibly well. It’s also great to see polyphonic aftertouch generated by the pads and this dovetails with many patches in Arturia’s Analog Lab (the Intro version is in the software bundle).”Read full review →
“Arturia's latest MIDI controller, the Arturia MiniLab 3, offers lots of functionality for its price. We reviewed this 25-key controller and broke down what we liked, loved, and didn't care for.”Read full review →
“For a small controller, with a condensed interface, I’d say Arturia did a great job at covering all these features into it. At least with Ableton, everything works as expected and I’m happy with it. Upgrades from Minilab 2: Starting with the hardware itself, there’s a big step up in my point of view. Minilab 3 looks better, feels better, has an extra conventional MIDI output, uses USB C, there’s a display for multiple purposes and internal functions.”Read full review →
“We’ve focused a lot on specialised functionality, but the MiniLab 3 has plenty going on to make it a great general‑purpose portable MIDI keyboard. It’s customisable using Arturia’s familiar MIDI Control Center app, where you can define CC or NRPN functions for all the physical controls and pads.”Read full review →
