Review: Quality and Value Very Good - Easy enough for me to download the software and get it working well. Plugins appeared in Cakewalk after installing software, and standalone versions also were installed, but without shortcuts on the desktop, so had to search a little to find the standalone versions (Windows 11), but no biggie creating my own shortcuts after that. Midi Control Center was not so easy to find in the installer, because I expected to be front and center, not buried amongst the dozens of trial versions of their myriad softwares, however it's in alphabetical order, so no problem. Arturia's sounds are excellent, and easy to access. Their youtube tutorials are also very helpful. Accidental keys are a bit stiff to push on the part of the key that has the least leverage (adjacent to the panel with the printing and pads, etc.). A real keyboard player (not me) should have no problem. It fits in my pretty small mobile rig backpack with the computer, headphones and audio interface, which is the main reason I got this keyboard. Over all, I am very happy with it. Can't wait to configure it fully with Cakewalk to also be as a transport control. This is my first Arturia purchase, and probably not my last. Really excellent product. Review: Great keys, awesome software - The unit itself has tremendous build quality and the keys & knobs have great tactile response. The pads are a bit stiff and spaced out, but work fine enough. I'd recommend it based on the quality of the controller itself, but what really makes it a great buy is the software that it comes with - despite being the 'lite' versions of Analog Lab and Ableton Live, they still have enough value that being included for free is a huge bonus. I'll never be able to afford the full versions of the individual Arturia synth emulators - which work both as VST plugins and as stand-alone software - but the Demo versions are a ton of fun to play around with. What's cool is that you can use them in Ableton and record & export tracks just as you would with the full versions, but the catch is that the plugins stop working after 20 minutes. Thankfully you can just restart Ableton and the timer resets, which you can do as often as you want. The time limits are a little annoying (as well as the inability to save custom presets) but it's still pretty awesome considering that you're using $200 plugins for free. Thankfully there are no watermarks or anything like that. ## Features - Looks awesome: cool inverted color scheme - Intuitive controls: master your DAW, plugins and instruments - Expressive keyboard: feels better than other small controllers - Amazing included software: analog lab Lite, Ableton Live Lite, Grand piano model D - Includes USB cable and user's manual ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07ZTRZT7D | | Additional Features | Studio Recording, Velocity Sensitive Key | | Best Sellers Rank | #167,749 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #565 in Computer Recording MIDI Controllers | | Brand | Arturia | | Brand Name | Arturia | | Color | Black & White Inverted | | Compatible Devices | Laptop, Desktop (PC), Ableton Live | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Connector Type | USB | | Control Method | Touch | | Control Type | Keyboard Controller | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 1,227 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 03760033531496 | | Hardware Interface | USB | | Human Interface Input | Keyboard | | Included Components | USB Cable, User Manual | | Instrument | Keyboard | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 8.66"D x 13.98"W x 1.97"H | | Item Type Name | Arturia MiniLab MKII Inverted MIDI Controller | | Item Weight | 1.7 kg | | Keyboard Description | Ergonomic | | Manufacturer | Arturia | | Manufacturer Part Number | 230504 | | Model Name | MiniLab MKII Inverted | | Model Number | MiniLab MKII Black | | Noise Control | None | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Keys | 25 | | Platform | Mac, Windows 10, Windows 7 | | Product Dimensions | 8.66"D x 13.98"W x 1.97"H | | Product Style | Classic | | Special Feature | Studio Recording, Velocity Sensitive Key | | Supported Software | Ableton Live | | Unit Count | 1 count | | Warranty Description | N/a. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Arturia - **Number of Keys:** 25 - **Connectivity Technology:** USB - **Special Feature:** Studio Recording, Velocity Sensitive Keys - **Model Name:** MiniLab MKII Inverted ## Images ![Arturia MiniLab MKII Inverted Midi Controller - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/511m1pModkL.jpg) ![Arturia MiniLab MKII Inverted Midi Controller - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71knynAROnL.jpg) ![Arturia MiniLab MKII Inverted Midi Controller - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61tO5TQKiKL.jpg) ![Arturia MiniLab MKII Inverted Midi Controller - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61nZ-VCsYKL.jpg) ![Arturia MiniLab MKII Inverted Midi Controller - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61b+sShZlzL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: how many keys?** A: 25 keys, from C to C (two octaves). **Q: Has anyone used it with GarageBand, if so how was it?** A: It works ok it works better with ableton **Q: Is this controller capable of being wireless?** A: No **Q: Matte or gloss finish?** A: It is a matte finish, not shiny or glossy at all ## Customer Reviews ### ā­ā­ā­ā­ā­ Quality and Value Very Good *by B***I on January 5, 2023* Easy enough for me to download the software and get it working well.

Thankfully there are no watermarks or anything like that. ### ā­ā­ā­ā­ā­ Stellar Controller *by R***N on June 10, 2021* The controller itself is one of the best controllers in it's price range. The quality of material is phenomenal, the keys are responsive and with the many knobs and options, you can easily customize the sound making great sounding music with ease. Then you get the software included. Analog Lab was what I installed first, and I absolutely loved it. The sheer number of sounds available once you start off with all kinds of amazing sounds. Then there's Ableton Live Lite. It is a great piece of software that quickly allows you to get started on writing your own music. I personally struggled with setting it up on my computer, but the tutorials made the process so much easier. This is an absolute steal for your money for the quality and features you get right out of the box. Let alone what you can make with it. As far as the portability goes, it does a pretty good job with it, but I would definitely get a case, because while the keys are great and responsive, a feel that they could break easily if not given a lot of care. ## Frequently Bought Together - Arturia MiniLab MKII Inverted MIDI Controller Black - Focusrite Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen USB Audio Interface for Guitarists, Vocalists, Podcasters or Producers to record and playback studio quality sound - Amazon Basics XLR Male to Female Microphone Cable for Speaker or PA System, All Copper Conductors, 6MM PVC Jacket, 6 Foot, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - šŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** ā€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - šŸŒ **Shop Globally** ā€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - šŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** ā€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - šŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** ā€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - šŸ”’ **Secure Payments** ā€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ā­ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** ā€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.eg/products/168743636-arturia-minilab-mkii-inverted-midi-controller](https://www.desertcart.com.eg/products/168743636-arturia-minilab-mkii-inverted-midi-controller) --- *Product available on Desertcart Egypt* *Store origin: EG* *Last updated: 2026-08-19*
