Astrolab 37

Compact Stage Keyboard with Analog Lab Integration

Arturia has expanded its AstroLab series with the AstroLab 37, a compact standalone stage keyboard designed to bridge the gap between studio production and live performance. This 37-key model retains the synthesis architecture of the larger 61 and 88-key versions but utilizes a smaller form factor and slim keys, making it a portable solution for touring musicians and producers with limited desk space.

The unit functions as a hardware host for Arturia's software ecosystem, allowing users to transfer presets from Analog Lab, V Collection, and Pigments directly to the keyboard's internal memory. Once transferred, these sounds can be played without a computer. The sound engine utilizes Arturia's TAE (True Analog Emulation) and Phi physical modeling technologies to run 10 distinct synthesis engines, including Virtual Analog, Wavetable, Granular, FM, and Sampling. The interface features a circular navigation screen and four color-coded macro encoders that map to key parameters (Brightness, Timbre, Time, Movement) for real-time tweaking.

Key Features

• Standalone Operation: Hosts over 1,300 onboard presets from Arturia's V Collection and Pigments libraries without requiring a connected computer.
• 37-Note Keybed: Features slim-keys with velocity sensitivity and channel aftertouch (same keybed found on the MiniFreak).
• Multi-Engine Synthesis: Internal DSP supports 10 sound engines, including Virtual Analog, Wavetable, and Granular processing.
• Ecosystem Integration: Bi-directional syncing with Analog Lab Pro allows for sound design on a computer and seamless transfer to the hardware.
• Connectivity: Includes USB-C for computer connection, USB-A for hosting, MIDI I/O, and Wi-Fi/Bluetooth for wireless control via the AstroLab Connect mobile app.
