Thank you for breaking this down in a way beginners can understand! I just picked up the minilab 3 to try to get into music making as a hobby so I have no idea what I'm doing. I watched so many other videos and still had no idea how to use this thing. This is the only video I found that broke things down enough that I can actually understand what this device is capable of. Awesome job!
Thank you, that is the idea of this channel. I don't assume you have experience and try to cover almost every corner. Glad you liked it and thanks for the comment.
thank you for this video. Arturia has great videos, but there all for people who already know how to use one of these things. This is good for beginners.
This was SO HELPFUL! I would never have figured out half of this - thank you so much!! And I fully agree - Vegas Mode is terrible, so bonus points for including how to turn it off!!
This is truly a great review! I'll be getting the Arturia Minilab mk3 in a few months, and this guide is perfect for starting out. Truly appreciate the efforts! May your channel grow by leaps and bounds! You said that you liked the keys... Do they flow freely? Thanks!
I'm near to buy a minilab 3. Thinking of it because its honest, with its well thought all in one motivations to be. But I'm also intrigued by the idea of KS37 for to use two hands. Definelly I hope more in a 37minikey version of the minilab 3, with pads layered and aftertouch. So I'm selling my otherbrand 49 keys to get two minikeys keyboards of Arturia hoping they can work in combo if ruted well throu a midisplitter. Maybe tricky but the good part is that I can always take one of the two and go around with it to play it as an extention of my hardware based setup, thanks to its user programs that keystep37 has not.
Great video, I just got this controller. Some of the settings and functions are a little more advanced. Would be great if you could do a video with the Minilab 3 and Logic Pro.
so In have a lot of Kontakt instruments, and use love, but I do plan on getting the arturia bundle at some point and the minilab looks like a better fit. My question is how does the minilab handle Kontakt and other 3rd party plugins?
Thank you very much for producing this very informative video. I have the Yamaha DGX670 88 keys which I have setup as a Master MIDI Controller but unfortunately it lacks an Arpeggiator or Modulation Wheel thus I would like to be able to access those Mini Lab 3 features while playing the DGX670 keyboard. I also have the Arturia Mini Lab 3 and the Yamaha DGX670 connected via USB to my laptop computer and I would like to be able to press keys and play notes on my DGX670 keyboard and have those notes fed to the Mini Lab 3 Arpeggiator but I have not been able to figure out how to set this up in the Mini Lab 3 or know if this is even possible? Your help and advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for this. How do you get the knobs and faders to change midi channel? When I switch to any of the 16 channels the keyboard switches channel but the knobs and faders stay on channel 1. This is super annoying because I want to switch between multiple Arturia soft synths in my DAW.
Absolutely brilliant tutorial video. Question regarding the user programs, i have just bought this and am trying out Presonus studio 0ne 7. Would i use the user program feature to make up a program for studio one as it isnt a DAW that is associated with the minilab 3? Thank you so much for the info, Bob
Hi, thank you for this video! Whenever I press and hold a note on the keyboard, the sound will come out as if I am constantly playing the same note (as if you were pressing up and down the piano key instead of simply holding a note). How do I make it work normally?
Hi, good day, I was wondering if you have experienced arming a track but the pad doesnt light up. It will only light up once you press it again to record. Any idea? Thanks!
I'm unable to change color, it doesn't let me save on midi control center. A window shows up saying something like: "The current template has been modified. Do you want to save it? Please note the device is connected but not synchronized. Press "store" to send edits to device." I have no idea what the store button is. It doesn't give me the option to save because the button is unclickable. I can only press on cancel or continue without saving. Also in midi controller center i cannot click on user remplates.
Hey I need some help... I am a begginer user of ableton I wonder how I could make the pads of the minilab assigned on the color of the clip on ableton. Now every pad just light white... I hope you could help me thanks.
Better than the official certainly but I am a beginner at midi controller and only occasionally play the guitar sometimes(bard chords don't agree with my stubby fingers I suppose). Any roadmaps for me to starting playing some songs and eventually create my own using the minilab3?

Great overview for us beginners! The manufacturer doesn't have anything this accessible and straight forward, so you video is much appreciated.
yeah it's frustrating arturia doesn't have some basic documentation about DAW features
This is exactly what I needed, an introduction for a complete beginner. Thank you! More, please? 😀
it's way better than the official tutorial!!! thanks a lot
A very helpful video to watch for us the beginners. Thank you for covering the most of what Arturia did not cover :)
thank you for this video. Arturia has great videos, but there all for people who already know how to use one of these things. This is good for beginners.
One of the best tutorials explaining this midi controller
amazing vid, very in depth and beginner friendly
Thanks !!! :)

Excellent video- thank you so much!
Thanks for the comment. Glad you liked it !!
You are the only the really showed the arpeggiator fully... Thanks!
Super tutorial thank you so much @XNB
Excellent tutorial My friend, it is very important that we help people more and more to know how to use this magnificent tool
thanks for your tutorial, just got it few days ago, with all keys are Whitty custom so beautiful and smooth.
You’re the man, always appreciated. Buying you a coffee
Best tutorial video out of all.....need vdo on Drums. Features too..

Great video thank you so much ❤
Terrific video! How can you set a scale on chord mode? A simple transpose of the same chords is a little bit a useless on a live contest in my opinion
So helpful!
BRAVO!!! ❤

Can I use a USB-C to USB-C cable to connect the MK3 with my MacBook Air M3?
Thank you so much ! Finallly understand how this shit works
How can I switch the pads to drum mode?
Hi, good day, I was wondering if you have experienced arming a track but the pad doesnt light up. It will only light up once you press it again to record. Any idea? Thanks!
the keys and pad play diff velocity by how hard i press them, how can i fix this
Have you found out? I have the same problem!
I'm unable to change color, it doesn't let me save on midi control center.
A window shows up saying something like: "The current template has been modified. Do you want to save it? Please note the device is connected but not synchronized.

Also in midi controller center i cannot click on user remplates.
Does it also show which clip is running via blinking leds?
can you help me. cause my in my fl studio. analog finds my minilab 3 but idk why. i can't play with it and select presets.
Just got mine and it lights up, downloaded the software but no sound from my Minilab 3, have I missed something?
someone knows how it compares with the Novation Launchcontrol Mini?
The pads of Mk2 are a little bit stiff, does that still happen?
can I use the mini lab 3 in DAW such as bandlab?
Dies it have builin tones ey
Rythms or shiuld it be programmed
Can a Mac book Pro M1 8GB memory with a 512GD SSD hard drive run a minilab 3
Hey I need some help... I am a begginer user of ableton I wonder how I could make the pads of the minilab assigned on the color of the clip on ableton. Now every pad just light white... I hope you could help me thanks.
Press shift+pad once or twice to cycle through the different pad modes.
@@Cameronwatt color pads not banks
I have a stupid question but what do you mean that they don't have after touch? Like I can't play the same key repeatedly?
Better than the official certainly but I am a beginner at midi controller and only occasionally play the guitar sometimes(bard chords don't agree with my stubby fingers I suppose). Any roadmaps for me to starting playing some songs and eventually create my own using the minilab3?
Why does Arturia insist on that damn microscopic screen? I can barely see it much less read it.
Completely useless. Double the size and add one for each knob and Fader so you know what they are without touching.
i've had no issues.. how far away from your keyboard are you when you play it?
@@jamessderbypeople will always find something to complain about
Good luck finding a synth in this price range with better screen.
@@saggygnaw my vision is 20/800 without glasses. I wear them and it’s still hard to read.
Was considering buying one, it just looks like a major PIA. I think I'll buy something else 😁
Anyone know how to turn off device without disconnect the cable?
You can’t switch it off. what you can do is to change the Sleep Mode to have no lights. I hope this helps you.
@@FlawlessDreamz Thank you.
How do you do that??@@FlawlessDreamz
i bought an usb extension cable with on-off -switch
Bitte auf Deutsch, das wäre super.
Sadly my pads in arturia are TERRIBLE
Thanks a lot for this great tutorial!!!
