Arturia has reskinned its KeyLab Mk3 with a bright orange finish – don’t look at these pictures or you might accidentally buy itTwo years after its launch in 2024, the KeyLab Mk3 – despite being a rock-solid keyboard controller option chosen by many producers – was in need of little refresh. And Arturia has come through with the goods, with a special-edition version finished in bright orange.
We were mightily impressed when we got our hands on the KeyLab Mk3 in 2024, giving it a 9/10 in our review and praising the well-balanced weighting and smooth action of the keyboard, top-drawer build quality, DAW control and ease of use.

For all intents and purposes, the new orange-finished version is the exact same keyboard controller, with expressive playability, deep DAW control and studio-to-stage workflow, it just boasts a vibrant orange skin that’ll no doubt make it the centerpiece of your production setup.

Offering your rig a “true command center”, the KeyLab Mk3 also features responsive pads and touch-sensitive faders – the responsiveness of which we were also impressed by – as well as MIDI connectivity, a high-resolution colour display, and Chord and Scale modes designed to expedite and music composition in the absence of robust music theory knowledge.
The KeyLab Mk3 ULTRA is available in both 49- and 61- key configurations, priced at €449 and €549, respectively.
