The white Arturia KeyLab MKII serves as a versatile MIDI controller and software suite, featuring 49 velocity-sensitive keys equipped with aftertouch, a clickable encoder, nine additional encoders, nine sliders, and 16 RGB-backlit touch and pressure-sensitive pads. It also includes six transport control switches, four command switches, a modulation wheel, and a pitch-bend wheel. This system is engineered to facilitate 1:1 control of the bundled Analog Lab software, Ableton Live Lite, and V-Piano virtual instrument software, in addition to any MIDI-compatible plug-in or digital audio workstation (DAW). Users can tailor the controller for other software applications through the downloadable MIDI Control Center software. Furthermore, the KeyLab MKII provides seamless control that extends beyond conventional MIDI, enabling users to manage their DAW software across various platforms, and it comes with ten overlays for quick application switching. The controller is a Class-Compliant USB device, ensuring immediate compatibility with both Mac and Windows systems.

The controller is equipped with three buttons designed for mode switching, enabling swift transitions between Analog Lab mode, DAW mode, and a User mode for developing custom mappings to manage MIDI hardware or software instruments and plug-ins. In Analog Lab mode, users can manipulate all aspects of Analog Lab without the need to use a mouse. The software features over 6,500 TAE-powered preset sounds from Arturia's acclaimed V-Collection. With the KeyLab 49 MKII, users can browse through presets and also create and store their own. The keyboard offers the capability to be split or layered, facilitating the creation of new sounds. All included software is compatible with major DAWs, such as Pro Tools, Logic Pro X, FL Studio, Bitwig, Cubase, Ableton Live, Digital Performer, Studio One, and others. The KeyLab 49 MKII is provided with a USB cable and an anti-ground loop adapter.
