Arturia announces creative partnership with Bitwig to provide Producer Pack bundles

Arturia has announced a creative partnership with Bitwig to provide three versions of the Producer Pack bundles, differentiated by the KeyLab keyboard controller included:

Producer Pack 25 is based around the KeyLab 25, the smallest such keyboard controller in Arturia's KeyLab range, featuring 25 keys with velocity sensitivity; Producer Pack 49 and Producer Pack 61 come complete with the larger KeyLab 49 and KeyLab 61, respectively, maximising performance and expression further still, thanks to their respective 49- and 61-note keyboards boasting both aftertouch and velocity sensitivity. All are designed to integrate into any studio or stage setup.

Each KeyLab keyboard controller has been mapped to work with the full version of the bundled Bitwig Studio software right out of the box.

Bitwig CEO Placidus Schelbert says, "From the start, Bitwig recognised Arturia as a fantastic company that offers unparalleled quality and attention to detail in everything that they do. Establishing a partnership is a great benefit that combines the outstanding workflow of Bitwig Studio with rich content and hands-on control from Arturia. The Producer Packs reveal the power and flexibility of music making in ways never experienced before."

Arturia President Frédéric Brun states, "We are thrilled to be partnering with our friends at Bitwig so we can bring you the Producer Packs. Bitwig Studio is one of the most innovative and smart software solutions that we have seen coming through in recent years. We think musicians will enjoy finding a top-quality controller, a very smart production suite, Analog Lab's huge collection of sounds, and also Mini V in one package."

All of Arturia's KeyLab packages come with its Analog Lab software synthesizer solution, boasting a library of over 5,000 presets taken from all eight of its TAE (True Analog Emulation) synthesis-powered Mini V, Modular V, CS-80V, ARP2600 V, Jupiter-8V, Prophet 5, Prophet VS, and Oberheim SEM V soft synths, as well as VOX Continental-V — bringing back the classic sounds of the Sixties-vintage VOX Continental 300 organ — and the Wurlitzer V software recreation of the classic Wurlitzer 200A electric piano, providing the immediacy of a hardware instrument with the flexibility of a software-based solution.

Producer Pack bundles are available now in limited quantities through Arturia's network of dealers and retailers, priced as follows: Producer Pack 25 (€349/$349), Producer Pack 49 (€399/$399), and Producer Pack 61 (€499/$499).
