Arturia KeyStep 37 MIDI Keyboard Controller & Sequencer - 37-Key

Compact creative MIDI controller with polyphonic sequencing, arpeggiator, chord tools and extensive MIDI/CV connectivity

The Arturia KeyStep 37 is a versatile compact controller designed to bridge computer-based music production, hardware synthesizers and modular gear. Its 37-note, velocity- and aftertouch-sensitive keyboard is combined with a built-in polyphonic sequencer, arpeggiator, Chord and Scale modes, touch-sensitive pitch/mod controls, and assignable MIDI CC knobs.

Unlike a basic MIDI keyboard, the KeyStep 37 can serve as the central controller for a DAW, hardware synth setup, or CV/modular system, with MIDI In/Out, USB, Sync, and dedicated Pitch, Gate, and Mod CV outputs.
