MusicRadar verdict: The MicroLab may not tick all the boxes for a studio controller keyboard, but as a super portable travelling device it hits the mark. Having said that, there is some pretty stiff competition out there that can provide more features for roughly the same spend. So although this is a very affordable, basic device it still oozes quality. I already had Analog Lab V, Pigments, and Piano V, so I wasnt really planning to upgrade to V Collection. It's then maximised the design and functionality. Analog Lab will let you open the full instrument in edit view if you own it, so once you find a sound you like and want to tweak it more to taste, that is very accessible with one click. Arturia has set realistic feature limits rather than try to incorporate too much. Most impressive is probably Arturia’s own Analog Lab Lite, which includes more than 500 presets and dovetails in nicely as mentioned above. MicroLab’s bundled software includes Bitwig Studio 8-Track and UVI’s Grand Piano Model D. Meanwhile the matt finish on the pitch and mod strips provides a nice contrast to the glossy keyboard keys. MicroLab continues this tradition, and although the small key design won’t suit everyone, the action is positive, quiet and feels robust enough to handle plenty of abuse. We’ve tried a number of Arturia keyboards and the keybeds are excellent. (Image credit: Future) Performance and verdict
