Arturia MiniLab 37 – Expanded 37‑Key Portable MIDI Controller

The MiniLab 37 takes the best-selling MiniLab formula and stretches it to a roomier 37‑note keybed, giving you more range for two‑handed playing, wider chord voicings, and faster solos — all in the same compact, take-anywhere body. With a central screen, hands-on controls, and deep DAW and software integration, it's built to be the creative hub of any modern setup, in the studio or on the move.

Key Features

• 37 velocity-sensitive slim keys: A full extra octave over the MiniLab 25 for more expressive melodies, basslines, and chords
• 8 RGB velocity- and pressure-sensitive pads: Two banks for finger drumming, clip launching, transport control, and arpeggiator selection
• 8 rotary encoders & 4 faders: Hands-on control over instruments, effects, and mixer parameters
• Central display & clickable browser knob: Scroll patches and navigate presets directly from the keyboard — preset names appear on screen with Arturia instruments
• Touch-sensitive pitch & modulation strips: Add expression without bulky wheels
• Built-in arpeggiator, chord & hold modes: Spark ideas and build progressions instantly
• USB‑C, 5‑pin MIDI out & pedal input: Bus-powered for laptops and tablets, and ready to drive hardware synths or act as a clock source
