Description

Building upon the success of the Beatstep Pro and KeyStep, the Arturia KeyStep Pro is a powerful 4-part polyphonic sequencer with a great feeling 3-ocatve keyboard with velocity sensitivity and aftertouch, making it well suited for producers, musicians, and artists looking to sequence and perform musical ideas in an expressive and articulated way. With an ever-growing collection of modular gear, analog synthesizers, drum machines and software instruments, the KeyStep Pro allows you to perform and control in perfect unison. There are four independent sequencers, controlling whatever synth, module, or drum machine you want. The sequencer features 16 patterns per track, and each pattern can be up to 64 steps long and contain 16 notes per step. Up to 16 patterns can chained together to create a whole song or sections of a live set. What’s more, the onboard scene memory takes snapshots of all the sequences within a pattern, letting you instantly switch between sets of sequences. Everything is saved to a project, which can be loaded, duplicated, tweaked, edited, and re-saved again.

There are 4 CV, Gate and Mod outputs, 8 dedicated drum Gate outputs, Clocks, MIDI in, 2 MIDI outs, a solo metronome output, sustain input to let you get expressive with your performance, and USB for easy power and DAW/softsynth control. If you like working in the box, the KeyStep Pro easily sequences and arpeggiates your virtual instruments, syncing everything with your software studio. Switch to the dedicated Control mode to control parameters in your favorite synths and effects. Gigging with the KeyStep Pro is fun and easy, with intuitive and instant access to inspiring performance features. Utilize multimode arpeggiators, randomness, an easy chord mode, and real-time recording for creating on the fly, while the crisp OLED displays and LED-illuminated controls help you see it all in the dim lights of the stage.
