Guy from Arturia here.

In this series of videos, we're gonna be looking at

Keylab Essential, Arturia's range of stream lined MIDI controller keyboards.

As this is the first episode, let's have an overview.

Keylab Essential is a light weight but rugged

MIDI controller keyboard.

It's available in both 49 and 61 key versions

and comes with a huge bundle of software so you

can start making music straight out of the box.

Including Ableton Live Lite,

UVI Grand Piano Model D,

and Analog Lab 2.

Keylab Essential puts the focus on work flow,

putting the most frequently used functions

right at your fingertips.

This also keeps the interface from being too overwhelming.

It uses its USB connection for both power and MIDI

so you'll keep cables to a minium.

If you've recently purchased Keylab Essential,

you'll want to make sure you're getting

the most out of it.

Inside the box you'll find easy to follow instructions

on how to register Keylab Essential and download

all of the included software titles.

Let me quickly show you how to get started.

First, head to Arturia.com and set up a user account,

or log in if you already have one.

Once logged in, you'll be in the My Arturia

section of the website.

In the My Products section,

click register a new product.

Select your model of Keylab Essential

from the drop down menu and enter the serial number

and unlock code found on the quick start guide,

or on the underside of your Keylab Essential.

Once registered, you'll be able to download

and install the included software.

You'll find useful links and guides

for each software product by clicking more info

next to Keylab Essential in your My Arturia account.

In the next episode, we'll be taking a closer look

at the great software that comes with Keylab Essential,

with a special focus on Analog Lab 2

and showing you the power of Keylab Essentials

integration and performance controls.

Bye for now.
