IN THE LAB

Arturia’s Analog Lab hub has also been upgraded to version 2. It offers surface-level control over a selection of 5,000 presets from across the V Collection. Its UI is based around a sleek photorealistic image of the full range of keyboards, paired with a virtual controller based on Arturia’s own KeyLab range. Each preset features several pre-assigned macro controls and KeyLab and MiniLab users will find these automatically assigned, although they can easily be mapped to any controller via MIDI learn. It also offers performance-centric features including splits, sound layering and preset playlists.
