Build your sounds in the studio and take them to the gig on a single 88-key stage keyboard. The AstroLab 88 runs its instruments onboard, so you can play your prepared patches, splits and layers live without bringing a laptop. Its fully weighted Fatar TP-40L hammer-action keybed pairs piano-size keys with triple sensors and channel aftertouch.

Pianos, organs and synths in one keyboard

The onboard library spans acoustic and electric pianos, organs, vintage and modern synths, and multisampled instruments. Arturia lists more than 1,800 presets for the current AstroLab 88 software. Use a split to put a synth bass under your left hand and an electric piano under your right, or layer a pad with a grand piano across the keyboard.

Find and shape sounds while you play

The navigation wheel and its color display let you browse sounds and playlists, while dedicated preset buttons give you direct access to instrument families. Four macro knobs handle changes to brightness, timbre, time and movement. Dedicated delay and reverb sit alongside assignable effects. Chord, Scale, Arpeggiator and Hold modes give you different ways to play a part, and the MIDI looper records phrases for playback at an adjustable tempo.

Take your studio patches to the stage

Use the included Analog Lab Pro on your computer to edit presets, build two-part sounds, assign macros and sync your patches to the keyboard. Organize them into playlists for your set, then recall them from the instrument. The AstroLab Connect mobile app lets you manage playlists and adjust effects, MIDI, chord and arpeggiator settings wirelessly. Compatible presets from Arturia’s separately available V Collection and Pigments can extend your library.

Connect the rest of your rig

Send stereo or mono audio to a mixer, monitor through headphones, or connect a mic to one of the two combo mic/line inputs for vocoder sounds. Five-pin MIDI in and out connect external gear. USB-C links to a computer, and the USB-A host accepts a compatible MIDI controller or USB drive. The four pedal inputs cover sustain, expression and two assignable controls. Bluetooth audio lets you play along with tracks from a phone or tablet.
