Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built around an 88-key, fully weighted Fatar TP/110 hammer-action keybed, the black KeyLab 88 mk3 gives piano-focused playing a central place in a software-based rig. Aftertouch, a color display, pads, faders, encoders, and transport controls keep performance and session control close at hand. Its dedicated mappings and MCU/HUI support connect it with major DAWs, while Arturia integration and the included software suite provide instruments, effects, and learning tools for composing, production, and live work.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Studio production sessions that combine weighted-key performance with hands-on DAW, mix, and virtual-instrument control.
- Live sets requiring keyboard parts, sample or loop triggering, and direct parameter adjustments.
- Writing harmonic parts with Scale Mode, Chord Play, and the built-in arpeggiator.
