Thank you so much for this. All the instructional videos that come with the site assume everyone is already well versed in making music to some degree and I am an absolute beginner. This helped me a ton.
"Stay inspired"... brother, this is just the video I needed. A down to earth, chill setup showing the basics n tiny bit extra; showing that you can map the drum pad to specific notes?? Just dipping my toes into digital home studio waters for the mental health vibes of it (used to enjoy creating music amateur time when I was younger), seeing that one little feature though, inspired is perfect wording, my friend =) I just picked this one up today and I'm looking forward to playing around with it. Thanks for the vid!
great vid man super straightforward, glad arturia makes it so easy, and for all the comments saying this is complicated you literally have to do this for like any product including an audio interface
Nice and helpful. I was a little shocked that something like this was not on Arturia's site. I just got a Focusrite interface and they had videos just like this for their products.
thank you you are genius I just bought my mini lad three just received it on the mail and no wires. I guess I should read the instructions with this tutorial you have I can freaking get into it can wait with all the step-by-step hook up and download.🤣🤣👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽awesome thank you!!
can you help me? I just bought my minilab 3 and I'm having problems. my computer is not recognizing it and the midi control center does not want to update the firmware so that is why its lights do not stop blinking and it does not work. Thanks
I just got mine. But I cannot integrate the knobs, faders and the main menu button to work. Please can you do a video to help us know how to set parameters using Arturia Midi Control Center. Thank you.
I just bought the mini lab 3 for my MacBook Pro (2021-22) I can only connect it with a usb hub since my laptop does not have a USB-A port. However on the Arturia site it says you shouldn’t use a usb port. Is there any way around this?? Also, when I try to update the firmware it says that the application is not available in my country but I’m in the US. I need answers 😭 this is my first time using a midi controller.
What if you’re using an iPad…are drivers available for it? Too, iPads only have one usb port (mine’s an iPad Pro so I have a usb c) so if it’s used for power, how do you get it and the minilab “talking” to each other? A Usb hub?
Agree. My MinLab3 would not work properly with the supplied cable and my USBC only ported MacBook when used with a C to A adapter. With a C to C cable it worked as advertised.
Will this work as a standalone MIDI controller? I have a Korg Volca Beats Analog Synthesizer and i was wondering if i could use it to control the Korg.
Hi DSoundman, I have just purchased this Midi Controller. Do you know if it works OK with Studio One DAW? If so, I guess its a similar process to using it with Protools? Also, how do you change Pad banks between A & B?
I'm in Canada and i can get the Minilab 3 for $150cad. But i realize that the ProTool software costs $390 per year. Is using that software absolutely essential?
Hi there, my Focusrite Audio Interface does not have Midi in... will I be able to use the MiniLab3 anyway through the USB connection? I'm using a Mac and Logic Pro X sorry for the dumb question, I'm a guitar player. lol
I like your rewievs. Witch one would you suggest for hobby 40 old musican - minilab 3 vs oxygen pro mini? - I am Cubase user. Will minilab 3 work pluged by usb-c to android phone? I have Cubasis and FL studio on phone and i wish to know. Thanks for anwser.
I'm trying to use mine with analog lab v but I'm getting nothing The midi control center acknowledges that I'm pressing buttons but I'm lost here I'm not very tech savvy any help would be appreciated
Thank you for the video. I have a MAC, and it is not tracking what you are doing. I do not see an image of my unit as you hae at 6:56/11:15. The manufacturer is not very helpful.
Hi there, I m currently using pt for mixing, Logic Pro for music arranging. I am not expecting the DAW control problem could be solved on Pro-tools and it seems doesn't from ur updated video list. The DAW control problem also doesn't work with the logic pro, it didn't response as same as their official video.
Question… if i turn the master bass of a preset completely down to -10 dB does that cut out all of the low frequencies or are they just not hearable anymore ? Sorry I’m a newb and would appreciate some help on this many thanks 🙏
Its impossible for me LOL...how can I reset everything? Somehow I managed to store some sort of SCENE OR PRESET and its impossible to get rid of it...every preset I try to load on MINILAB the previous scene or sound is there...impossible to play!
Need Help- I got the minifuse 2 and the minilab 3 and it came with delay, analog lab, chorus, etc. But I was only able to activate the analog lab. Does anyone why how I can activate the other 4 plugs in/extensions from the software center?
It doesn't let me register mine, when i put in the information it says "Sorry, Your registration failed You can't register this license." please help me resolve this
Holy shit way too many things to install, download, set up accounts, all this bullshit. Thank you now I know I won't be buying this. Back to my PC keyboard I guess
@livingproof9622 you do you own one? I use cakewalk and pre sonus regularly as an interface for my guitar and record that way. THIS piece of crap needs a speaker, a computer, active internet, and fucking voodoo just to play a key. It's crap.
@@livingproof9622clearly.my first midi controller was 20 years old and i had to trouble shoot it for weeks before it worked. Gave me such a better understanding of how all the midi stuff works. This was a vacation in comparison, just plug it in download some stuff and the rest is all there for you.
The strangest video I've seen in the last 2-3 years in a review of equipment for musicians. 11 minutes of talking about the keyboard, and never once did you hear any sound of new sounds in the updated programs for Arturius, just a pity for the lost 11 minutes. Do NOT make such long videos - on television there is a rule that a person perceives information for no more than 2 minutes, anything longer than that a person practically does not perceive.
It's not a review tho, it's kind of a setup tutorial. And you can just skip 5~10 seconds with the arrow key like I did if you are not interested in what his showing

Same bro, 💯
Bro thank you so much. I’m so happy you made this video. None of these companies go into depth like you did. I was up and running in 10 min. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😁👍🏻

Thank you!!
My new minilab 3 should to come today) Thank for video, it is so useful for me
hey stranger, I wanted to ask, how is it now? working well? happy with it? or should have bought some other?
Nice and helpful. I was a little shocked that something like this was not on Arturia's site. I just got a Focusrite interface and they had videos just like this for their products.
Excellent tutorial My friend, it is very important that we help people more and more to know how to use this magnificent tool
Very nice material thanks a lot. Greetings from Yorkshire
This video helped a lot. I just set mine up. Good lookin out for the info 💯👌🏽
Thank you very much you have a new subscriber from Casablanca
Perfect, perfect, perfect, this video was exactly what I needed thanks a lot
Da best video of minilab 3 setup 🥂
Sweet great help :) I still have to figure out how to get sound
Thanks man! What if this Midi doesn't come with the card to register?
What if I bought this product used and I don’t have the unlock code? How do I get access to the free software?
thank you you are genius I just bought my mini lad three just received it on the mail and no wires. I guess I should read the instructions with this tutorial you have I can freaking get into it can wait with all the step-by-step hook up and download.🤣🤣👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽awesome thank you!!
Does it Work standAlone like The Akai mini? For live looping and gigs? With no computer?
this video is better than the tutorial of the actual company who made it
can you help me? I just bought my minilab 3 and I'm having problems. my computer is not recognizing it and the midi control center does not want to update the firmware so that is why its lights do not stop blinking and it does not work. Thanks
I had to update in Arturia software center
At least!!! 🤩 Thank you soooo much!!!!
I need that custom preset video, please. I'm struggling over here, lol.
If I buy from someone, which they have registered on their computer.
Can I still download the from the same QR code on my own computer?
Great video as always. Thanks.
Have you had any luck getting transport control? I've tried custom setups in MIDI Control Center with no luck.
I just got mine. But I cannot integrate the knobs, faders and the main menu button to work. Please can you do a video to help us know how to set parameters using Arturia Midi Control Center. Thank you.
Search fl script for Minilab 3 on Google 🎉
I just bought the mini lab 3 for my MacBook Pro (2021-22) I can only connect it with a usb hub since my laptop does not have a USB-A port.

You can use a type c to type c cable. I use it did the update and everything, works fine
What if you’re using an iPad…are drivers available for it? Too, iPads only have one usb port (mine’s an iPad Pro so I have a usb c) so if it’s used for power, how do you get it and the minilab “talking” to each other? A Usb hub?
Have you made a video of downloading analog lab intro as you have said you are making a seperate video of that process😊?
No mention any track editor-recorder. Not included?
I do not understand, why they include an usb-c to usb-a cable. Why not usb-c to usb-c?
Agree. My MinLab3 would not work properly with the supplied cable and my USBC only ported MacBook when used with a C to A adapter. With a C to C cable it worked as advertised.
If a motherboard does not have any USB C ports then there is no way to connect the Keyboard. USB A is an expectation to have on any custom PC setup.
so simple to resolve. Send two cables, one usc c to usb and a usb c to usb c 😅
Buy a cable
Because pcs only have a usb a. Especially desktops.
HELP i cannot use the knobs to controll the arturia lab V
Hey! Did u solve the problem? Have the same thing. Knobs doesn`t work.
Will this work as a standalone MIDI controller? I have a Korg Volca Beats Analog Synthesizer and i was wondering if i could use it to control the Korg.
why can I only download version control center 1.1? and there was no DEVICE SETTINGS button?
hello thanks for the video. i have a problem, i dont have the midi control center... only analog lab 5.. how to do ?
thanks
Thanks for the video!!! May I ask how is the integration of the Minilab 3 with other DAWs like Tracktion Waveform?
Can the MiniLab 3 be connected directly to a standard USB to USB-C adapter to be used with a MacBook Air M3?
Hi DSoundman, I have just purchased this Midi Controller. Do you know if it works OK with Studio One DAW? If so, I guess its a similar process to using it with Protools? Also, how do you change Pad banks between A & B?
Where we get pro tools???
i aM CURRENTLY USING SAME SETUP WHICH YOU ARE USING .WHAT A COINCIDNECE MAN
I'm in Canada and i can get the Minilab 3 for $150cad. But i realize that the ProTool software costs $390 per year. Is using that software absolutely essential?
You can use pretty much any DAW. Reaper for example is pretty much free.
Отличный гайд, но почему у вас Arturia Minilab 3 подключена не через MiDi port?
does the Minilab mk3 work with the USB hub on the Minifuse 2?
i love you man
Hi there, my Focusrite Audio Interface does not have Midi in... will I be able to use the MiniLab3 anyway through the USB connection? I'm using a Mac and Logic Pro X sorry for the dumb question, I'm a guitar player. lol
Can I use it with a phone?
I like your rewievs. Witch one would you suggest for hobby 40 old musican - minilab 3 vs oxygen pro mini? - I am Cubase user. Will minilab 3 work pluged by usb-c to android phone? I have Cubasis and FL studio on phone and i wish to know. Thanks for anwser.
Does anyone know if you’re able to do this in GarageBand? Like, I put the sounds from the minilab library onto garage band
I'm trying to use mine with analog lab v but I'm getting nothing The midi control center acknowledges that I'm pressing buttons but I'm lost here I'm not very tech savvy any help would be appreciated
you are freaking right just go mine same problem…can’t get to far im in the middle of trying and lookup on youtube…🤦🏽♀️
Very helpful, thank you
When I connect mine, this USB not recognized' message keeps popping up !!
Same here, have you managed to work it out someway?
Thank you for the video. I have a MAC, and it is not tracking what you are doing. I do not see an image of my unit as you hae at 6:56/11:15. The manufacturer is not very helpful.
If I have arturia pro sounds then don’t need to install the software which came with mk3, right?
Could you tell me where i can add my samples for pads and keys ? pls help
Hi there, I m currently using pt for mixing, Logic Pro for music arranging. I am not expecting the DAW control problem could be solved on Pro-tools and it seems doesn't from ur updated video list. The DAW control problem also doesn't work with the logic pro, it didn't response as same as their official video.
Its saying registration failed? I have done correct serial no and unlock code still Im facing this problem
Preinstalltion failed - i have try many times but keeps failing.
the knobs and faders work in pro tools?
Min 7:43 why disable MiniLab3 option?
Torn between this and the launchkey mini mk3
Question… if i turn the master bass of a preset completely down to -10 dB does that cut out all of the low frequencies or are they just not hearable anymore ? Sorry I’m a newb and would appreciate some help on this many thanks 🙏
Great help frfr
Thank you

It doesn't let me register mine, when i put in the information it says

Holy shit way too many things to install, download, set up accounts, all this bullshit. Thank you now I know I won't be buying this. Back to my PC keyboard I guess
Arturia Keystep
I cant get the firmware?
Why is it taking so long to install the analog lab intro
This is the most frustrating product I have ever tried to deal with. About to throw it out the window
Why?
Because he wanted it to make music for him without him having to learn anything. Kids are weak sauce. Any kid today that steps up, wins.
Agree 100%. I started downloading software and updates on Thursday. It's Saturday morning
@livingproof9622 you do you own one? I use cakewalk and pre sonus regularly as an interface for my guitar and record that way. THIS piece of crap needs a speaker, a computer, active internet, and fucking voodoo just to play a key. It's crap.
@@livingproof9622clearly.my first midi controller was 20 years old and i had to trouble shoot it for weeks before it worked. Gave me such a better understanding of how all the midi stuff works. This was a vacation in comparison, just plug it in download some stuff and the rest is all there for you.

Impossible to follow, too many apps
arturia minilab 3 not working windows 11 >driver not work 1.1.1

Hate when the “influencers” put out a video, then never respond to any questions or comments.
Music is too loud.
