You're not into making ordinary music, so why choose an ordinary controller? Arturia has crafted a special, extremely limited - edition alternative to their well - loved MiniLab MkII controller, and it's bound to win you over. If you're in search of a portable yet powerful controller or sequencer with a one - of - a - kind look that matches your unique music style, this is the perfect opportunity. Key features include a 25 - note velocity - sensitive slim keyboard, two banks of 8 high - quality velocity and pressure - sensitive pads with RGB backlighting, 16 rotary encoders (2 clickable), 2 capacitive touch sensors for pitch bend and modulation, 8 user presets, a sustain pedal jack, octave up and down buttons for full - range play, USB power, USB/MIDI class compliance (no drivers needed), compatibility with Mac or PC, and a Kensington Security Slot. The product measures 14' x 8.7' x 2' (355 mm x 220 mm x 50 mm) and weighs 3.3 lbs (1.5 kg).
Using this Arturia MiniLab Mk 2 Inverted Edition is a breeze. First, connect it to your Mac or PC via USB. Since it's USB/MIDI class compliant, you don't need to install any drivers. The 25 - note keyboard is great for playing melodies. You can use the octave up and down buttons to cover a wider range of notes. The pads are velocity and pressure - sensitive, so the harder you hit them, the more intense the sound. The RGB backlighting on the pads adds a cool visual touch. The rotary encoders let you adjust various parameters. The two clickable ones offer extra functionality. The capacitive touch sensors for pitch bend and modulation are easy to use with a simple swipe of your finger. You can save your favorite settings in the 8 user presets. When it comes to the sustain pedal, just plug it into the jack for that smooth, sustained sound. For maintenance, keep it in a clean and dry place. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity. If it gets dirty, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe it down. And don't forget, the Kensington Security Slot can be used to secure it if needed.
