The New Generation MiniLab, Redesigned for Modern Workflows
A direct evolution of the brand's bestseller, the MiniLab 3 modernizes the series with USB-C connectivity, a MIDI DIN output, and a mini screen that transforms daily control. The 4 faders, built-in arpeggiator, and DAW scripts deliver a real productivity leap compared to previous versions, while maintaining the compactness that made the MiniLab series successful.
Who Is It For? Beatmakers, Mobile Producers, and Home Studio Keyboardists
Whether you compose in a small studio, on the go, or on stage, this 25-key controller offers the essentials for programming drums, playing basses and leads, and mixing ideas in one gesture. Its plug-and-play ease of use and DAW mapping presets make it a reliable companion from the first sketch to the final track.
Inspiring Controls and Seamless Integration
The keyboard's precise feel, high-sensitivity RGB pads, and pitch/modulation touch strips encourage expressive performance. Thanks to the mini screen and clickable encoder, you can navigate your sounds, adjust parameters, and keep an eye on your settings without interrupting creativity.
On the workflow side, the arpeggiator, Chord mode, Hold function, semitone transposition, and transport control streamline rhythmic and harmonic writing. Custom DAW scripts ensure intelligent mapping of key functions, and integration with Arturia's software instruments, including Analog Lab, allows browsing and playing hundreds of presets instantly.
Its comprehensive connectivity-USB-C MIDI, 5-pin MIDI DIN output, and assignable pedal input (sustain, expression, or switch)-fits perfectly into both software setups and compact hardware ecosystems. Finally, its eco-friendly and robust design, combined with a 5-year warranty, promises many years of sessions.

It's a really nice little machine on a DAW (Ableton for me)
The 5-pin midi jack is a plus for connecting to external devices, CV socket, sync, etc... The price is an undeniable asset, the keys, although not huge, are however well weighted and quite playable, the very reasonable price and the technical and innovative evolution of this keyboard make it a very good companion. I am always surprised and amazed at the quality and intelligence of Arturia products, both software and hardware, the software that came with the purchase of this keyboard is great as well.Automatically translated
