Make music - your way
Never been fan of menu excavations and setting headaches? We think the same. That’s why we’ve created KeyLab Essential: to make the technical stuff as simple as possible. It’s easy to let your concentration drift and your inspiration slip when you spend hours on tedious tasks. KeyLab Essential is the result of careful research, with the aim of streamlining your creative process, giving you more time to express yourself through music. With the KeyLab Essential on your desk and its comprehensive set of music software loaded in your computer, the only required step to start experimenting, composing and recording is sitting in front of them. Once you’ve experienced the creative workflow of KeyLab Essential, you’ll wonder how you ever made music without it.
In tune with your studio

As well as offering ultimate integration with Analog Lab 2, KeyLab Essential is a universal MIDI controller, compatible with any third-party instruments or software. KeyLab Essential also comes with Ableton Live Lite so you can start recording, editing, and releasing your music with one of the most popular music platforms on the planet.
