It’s ok!! We love both KeyLabs and Keysteps!!
Nice video Taetro as always. 👍🏼
If I got it right, excluding the intro you said Keylab instead of Ketstep, 11 times.

Thank you for speaking about portability. I am actually selling off my 61 key synth and was thinking of a 49 but figured it won't fit inside my suitcase. Novation 37 full size is the way to go.
You called it "Keylab" 14 times!

Did you apply for the Merch?
Finally, more keys! I was wanting for this lol
Discord squad on the line!
I need this keyboard now, he look great, look reliable and solid, and the fonctions are incredible!
Thx for that quality of content you propose !
i was about to get the predecessor model of the Keystep, but now with all the extra functions available in the new model im defiantly getting my hands on the Keystep 37
Yes lad! Now that’s how you style it out 😂💪💪 also so many good features on the controller, love the chord edit and save function
thanks for this video, thinking of using this with my ipad pro/mpc live. Could be awesome, the possibilities are endless.
Best video on TH-cam in describing basic functions of this keyboard. Great job. Thank you. I record in Logic. Not a Keyboard player. I've been recording in Logic X Pro using the Mellotron software instrument built into Logic. But I have been sadly using my iMac computer keyboard to play notes. This is definitely the Arturia version I will be buying. Love the chord and scale mode. Fantastic! Thanks again.
thanks for watching!
Great vid; im attracted to the chord assist. How easy would it be to switch between controlling hardware and controlling software? Twist of a knob?
Thanks for the novation side-by-side!
Hi Taetro
Thanks for the video
I want to use a controller for both DAW and Hardware Synths
Which one should I go for
The launchkey 37 or keystep 37
Thanks for your videos. Question, do you still think the 37 is a reasonable controller? I'm looking for something this size but there are so many options. Would yiu recommend this now or do you think there are others that provide more fir a lower price with similar build quality? Appreciate any help. Thanks.
I just don’t get how this guy doesn’t have 1mil subs
would you choose this over the akai mpk mini plus or not? and why?
arp and chord features are out this world ...i bet a novation key mutate into this midi would be wild
Would you say this controller works well with Logic Pro? I'm looking to get my firsst MIDI controller (I'm a beginner), and I have my choices narrowed down to this one and the Novation Launchkey 37.
Just got this keyboard thanks for the tips...
Hello, Taetro! How are you? I'd like to ask if I should consider this than the Akai MPK Plus? I'm an independent music producer and I record all my stuff at home. I have the AKAI MPKI MINI MK2, thanks to you. Also, I have Strymon Pedals and two Korg Volcas (Beats and Keys) with MIDI INS. I would love to control these Korg Volcas via a keyboard with MIDI Outs. Both Akai MPK PLUS and Arturia Keystep 37 have these I/O's. Which one is better? Akai or Arturia given the gears I have?
Or Should I go for the Arturia KeyStep 430201 32-key Compact Keyboard Controller/Sequencer due to its price?
Thanks a bunch!
and thanks for the great review as always
You would think Arturia would have come out with the Keystep 37 before the Pro. I purchased the Pro first and got jealous when I learned that the 37 had the "Strum" feature.. So I went out and purchased the 37. Thanks for the video.
Am glad I watched this video. Thank you
I’m considering the Akai MPK Mini MKII vs Novation Launchkey Mini 2 vs Arturia Minilab MKII. I wanna be a home producer which one should I get started with? And which DAW should I use? Also it would be preferable to recommend some free DAWs thanks in advance

I'd buy it right now if I could, big fan of the original Keystep. Does the Keylab have the same keys as the Keystep? Thanks.
I watched another video about a lot of its features. This MIDI keyboard has a lot of features for such a good price. I think it's a nice MIDI keyboard for those who are aspiring composers like myself. I think I'd get a lot of use out of it.
always a good review. thanks!
i'm currently considering this controller to replace my minilab which requires a usb host to connect to other external hardware synths and gear. this controller facilitates a dawless config and there's definitely something to be said for modular setups as it inspires more creativity imho. the extra octave, added features and agreeable price make this almost a no-brainer for me. the question is whether the pro model will be a better investment in the long run for someone wanting to branch out to more standalone gear... any thoughts?
Curious fact: ks pro doesn’t support strum mode that ks37 does!
Keystep pro is for dawless synth control, keystep is limited in sequencer tracks.
Counted 12 :DD
Love your content Teatro!
Hello Sir I am beginner with the midi keyboards, I'm considering to buy Minilab or Keystep 37 What is better for a beginner like me
Nice job! I only counted 10 in the original video! Never mind the mistake you did a fret job. Been mulling the key step and may take the plunge. Thanks !
Buying it for an MPC one!
Hello, can you tell if the keysteps midi out is also a midi thru? Otherwise I'd need a midi merger...
The best u are man!!
Love u
I'm a bit confused whether I should get Arturia Keystep 37 or Novation Launchkey MK3 37. Any suggestions ?
In the same boat here.
What did you choose, eventually?
Hey man, that was very helpful for me, I will go with the Keystep 37. What lamp are you using to get your beautiful purple mood? ;)
Got it. Love it!
I'm considering it, however I got the keystep 32 so I don't know if it would add anything for me. I'm a complete novice and don't really know how to produce, just like how synths sound :P
Thank you so much for this video! Loved the review and stranger things mellow hipster vibes. :) So I'm debating between this and a mpk mini plus. Thoughts?
i was thinking about that too, which one would you choose?
What was the instrument for your first sequence generation? It reminds me of gareth emery 😅😬
Dope vid! What kind of camera you use?
12; 13 with intro ! :) great video thank's !
great vid! going to buy one as soon as i hit enter on this comment. this is exactly what i wanted to know about it and it didn't take up half an hour of my time.
You should make a comparison video between the keystep vs launchkey 37 key controllers that would be dope
Yes
+1 the chord modes make these two comparable
does the keystep keybed is the same as keystep 37 ?
I’m seriously considering one. One big thing I’m looking for is an easy way to record drum parts. I’m considering hooking a volca drum to it and I think it would be awesome to just be able to tap out my patterns without having to use the sequencer. Especially if it quantizes for me. Is this something that can be done easily? Great video btw, thanks
interested in this too, i am considering the arturia too, but having integrated pads like the akai plus does, is a great advantage. did you get it in the end?
For a midi controller that's always on your desk controlling your DAW and software synths, would you choose this over the M32?
M32 if hardware synths are not a priority
Great vid! What is the groove box at 5:50?
just got this today I'm blown away 15 mins into opening it lol
Hello! can i use it all alone and play along with my band as if a standalone keyboard when loaded with sounds?? I am a guitar player but my band needs some synth sounds in our jams. Is the arturia keystep 37 a good option for my needs? we also consider getting Korg monologue.
No
is this useful at all in Ableton live?
Question; what is the instrument above the keystep , it’s sitting on a plastic support??, if so where can we get one that size? Thanks
It is the Arturia Microfreak, an amazing little synthesizer, and - since the recent firmware upgrade - Vocoder! Highly recommended, amazing value for the price.
How does the Chords mode compare to the M32?
Wait BoBeats says it only comes with usb cable but u say it also includes the standalone adaptor..
Whats' what and who is slackin wif unreliable 411?
A vid about integration or use with Live 10?
Does the 37 add that much more then the 32 og?
I think it was 13 times you said KeyLab instead of KeyStep?
Nonetheless, great video as always, Taetro -- I'm thinking of starting with either the MPK Mini mk3 or the Minilab mk2, but the sequencer in the KeyStep is actually really dope.
Damn that was a good way to turn your mistake around :D gotta respect that
6:05 dos the scale mode only work within keysteps daw? or even when connected to external hardware, and not a pc?
It works without a Pc and you can also define your own scale, directly on the keystep 🔥
@@SHLDMusic sounds great. i think i will buy this, just wish the keys was a little bit bigger.
haha great way to salvage the footage :)
Hi, does anybody know if is a libary of sounds inside the Keystep or in its software or do have to connect it to a synth to get other sounds besides a classic piano for example?
Its a midi controller, no onboard sounds. You need either an external synth or a virtual instrument in a DAW to play sounds. It comes with ableton live lite, which has some sounds! Plus you can find lots of free virtual instruments online as well.
Mistakenly said : 11 including the intro it's 14😅 btw great vids and tutorials ❤️
Keystep 37 or KeyLab 49 essential and why???
I need to learn how to set it up along with Maschine MK3
Standalone, meaning you can play without a pc?
Hi so can u create an individual sequence per midi ch? Thnx in advance
Apparently, no, it's a single track device. For feather tracks something like beat/key step pro has to be chacked. Any advices on a good arp generator for multiple midi ch?
you can play a sequence on one channel, and with the keyboard on another channel, with one led color for the sequencer and one led color for the keyboard.
Will the chord and strum function work with iOS daws and synths?

😁😁😁
Hmm... I believe I counted 9 times you said "keyLab" instead of "KeyStep". Actually, aside from the post-recorded intro did you even say "KeyStep"? lol :D Love your vids Taetro
15 mentions if you include the intro pointing out your snafu ;)
Can you do a 37 vs 37 key comparison ? Arturia vs Novation ?
Novation wins for Ableton live in the box production, Arturia wins for studios with hardware
I got 11. Hilarious 😂 I too prefer portability and I think 3 octaves is just right. Would definitely consider it in the future.
Should this can fit in regular backpack
Portable fan here
I am a beginner with just a computer. Would you recommend the keystep 37 because of the interesting preset beat making hardwear like the Arpeggiator or the mini lab mk2 because of the simplicity and drum pads?
Beginner here. Why would I want this Keystep 37 sequencing Keyboard other than the M-audio Pro Mini 32 key keyboard. Looking for a lightweight at least 32 key portable keyboard.
the video bruh...the video.
witch keybed do you prefer m32 or arturia? ;)
yes ;-p
jean-louis pech i think you need to go to tic tok :)
03:20 - Thanks for keeping your hand, so that we do not see your secret maneuvering and learn it :=)
Aftertouch?
Nice, my main complaint about the og keystep was being unable to have visual representation of where in the sequence you were. I also hated that, as a non-pianist, you couldn't go into midi control center and adjust velocity and aftertouch to be basically absent. Anyone know if that's changed here?
wow I just bought a 32, but I’ll be sending that back and instead getting the 37!! The sequencer is so much better in this one.
The Sequence is not the same? As old ver ?
@@SonicVibe no it’s not, this one is polyphonic, the older one is monophonic. This one has LED’s above each key so you can see what keys are being played. This one has overdub as well. A few other features I’m sure that I have forgotten.
@@savnac both have poly but overdub is a sick feature for now old one does all i need but this will be my upgrade
@@SonicVibe older one is still great. It’s also smaller! If you don’t need all the extra keys/features, you’ll save a little bit of space.
8!!!
I counted 13!
12!
yayyyy
13! 😁
You called it "Keylab" 12 times!
Maybe in the back of his mind he is thinking about some lab tests he needs to do!
I got 15, nice video tho👍
11 times!😃
I believe you called it "keylab" 9 times!🤣 It's fine though, both series are good.
Just wanted to say the same, got really confused 😂
what's that weird segment called intro con't
where did you get that striped shirt though!
I got 12. Excellent video though.
12 and 14 with intro
Dude, i love your channel, can you give me that key step, pleaseeee...LOL
It would have been actually epic if you had mistakenly called it "Lab" 37 times.
12?
37
Despite knowing how happy it would make me to have the Keystep 37 in my arsenal, the $400 price point pretty much writes it in stone that the keystep most certainly won't become a part of my gear family. Years ago, I'd find ways to hustle up the extra cash, or pick up a second job, save what I needed & make my purchase. These days however, there's just no possible way to legitimize that kind of purchase guilt free when you have a daughter starting school and a stay-at-home home depending on me & myself. Covid caused me to get laid off which currently has left me in a spot less comfortable than before like millions of others. Seeing all these ppl getting evicted while saying they have no where to go makes me forget all about gear and just be humbled we have a place to sleep. Maybe 10 or 15 yrs from now I'll get lucky & find it as a hidden gem in a thrift store.
It's only $200. The pro is $400
Got side tracked but I think it was 9 times😆
