Arturia - Keystep 37 - Creative MIDI Controller, Sequencer, Arpeggiator and Chord Generator - 37-Note Slimkey Keyboard, Assignable MIDI CC Controls, Scale Mode, Versatile Connectivity

I wasn't really looking for the sequencing features that this keyboard offers, and would have preferred some additional knobs instead. Infinity knobs would also have been preferable to these traditional ones. But this keyboard had the overall simplicity that I was after which I why I chose it. I must say that it looks absolutely gorgeous. And the small size keys have a great feel to them. It doesn't feel cheap like some smaller keyboards. The Arturia software is great but the starter licence that comes with this keyboard is quite expensive to upgrade. I had never owned Arturia before but this really opened my eyes to them as a serious contender and I now happily own other Arturia software and hardware, and I will certainly consider buying them again when I need more serious hobby equipment (toys).

This is a great midi keyboard. Great build quality as you would expect from Arturia. I had been looking for a controller that could be powered by a DC power supply to connect to a keyboard less synth. It can also be powered via usb c. The sequencer is easy to use and I love the strum feature in the chord section. Overall, a little gem of a controller.

I hate Arturia having had so many issues with poor quality products from them. However, having needed a small mini controller for my Behringer Model D I compared this with many other mini keyboard controllers and settled on this one. Why ? Simply because the keybed feels so much better and the keys are wider than standard Mini-keys. If you're a keyboard played used to full size keys then this is the best option for you. I've not used any of the features like arpeggiator etc as I'd typically play these anyway. This thing is for basslines and basic keyboard input. If I want to do other stuff, I'll use a proper full sized keyboard. For its use case, I highly recommend it.

This is a great little master keyboard for live, travelling or small studios. The keys are the best mini size keys I have ever played, they have good travel and don’t feel like toys. The synth controlling features all work well - controlling external analogue synths or Eurorack from this is a real pleasure. highly recommended

This is a great little keyboard and very versatile. Build quality is excellent and the keyboard is good even though it is "mini keys" it doesn't feel spongey or cheap. Overall the UI is good and the things you will want to change regularly are easily accessible with SHIFT + labelled keyboard keys. It is reasonably intuitive for the main things like midi channel and arpeggiator/sequencer modes. The sequencer is a 64 step one with 8 sequences storable on the unit and as many as you like saved/loaded via the Windows/Mac support software. The sequencer is obviously meant as a quick scratch pad for bass lines etc rather than a fully fledged hardware sequencer, which is fine. However, there are a couple of very frustrating issues with the way the sequencer works which could have been very easily fixed. In real-time sequencer record, there is no quick way to re-record a sequence if you make a mistake. With "overdub mode" switched off, the obvious thing would be to record over the pattern, completely replacing the previous version. What actually happens is that it only replaces notes that are actually played, and leaves any old notes that you don't play over in the sequence. Therefore, if you try to re-record the sequence, old notes (i.e. timing mistakes) are not removed and it is a complete mess. This means you have to manually clear the pattern before re-attempting it. There is no single function for this and you have to delete a step at a time, then re-enter the sequence length every time you want to re-try. A simple "replace", like recording over on a tape recorder would be immeasurably quicker and simpler. On the step time record, there is no edit function except to delete the last note of the sequence. Roland's TB-03 allows you to scroll through the steps in a sequence with a knob. it shows the step number and sounds the notes as you pass them. You can replace the step with different note, rest or tie. This makes it extremely easy to spot and correct mistakes. A similar function on the Keystep 37 could have been implemented with the shift key and the rate knob. Without it the step mode is OK for very short sequences but pretty cumbersome otherwise, unless you are just stuffing in random notes to see what happens. Overall, a great product but the sequencer is limited by a couple of basic issues that make it unnecessarily annoying to use.

A superb MIDI controller and sequencer for music creation. Works well with MuseScore 4 and Ableton Live. Solidly built, well laid out. Highly recommended and good value for money.

There's a reason why this midi controler keyboard is a go to for so many musicians and producers for so many years now. Responsive, expressive, reliable and ohhh sooo conectable! And no! I am not being payed ro say that. Genuinely solid bit of gear. No regrets.

Impressive little midi controller keyboard with fantastic half size keys with after touch, it's built well and has some great features that keep it head and shoulders above the competition. It's not the cheapest controller out there, but it's quality makes it worth every penny.

Başka markalarda benzeri olmayan. Taşınabilir olması da avantaj. Başarılı.

Love it

MUY BUEN PRODUCTO DE CALIDAD, REALMENTE ES DE MAXIMA CALIDAD !!!!

Rock solid device, capable of much beyond what I need. Used for feeding out MIDI to an old Yamaha keyboard as well as a Behringer CAT synthesizer. Interfaces with Mac and Windows MIDI stuff no problem. Very nicely built, solid, not shaky or cheap, really smooth action on the keys and very playable. The ONLY goofy thing, this is very minor and this is pointed out in videos I've seen on the unit, is that the ribbons for the pitch and modulation will DEFINITELY be scraped or rubbed by the left hand during use, by accident. Just the nature of the design, if it gets too aggravating you can put a piece of cardboard over that area. Otherwise this is an amazing unit with expansive capabilities for what is relatively speaking a super low price.

Kinda hard to use the aftertouch well but it's good. Feels high quality and I don't have any complaints.
