Performance
features
Craft a truly unique sound and setup.
Layer an evolving synth arp over some emotive strings and discover truly unheard and captivating instrument combos, or split two sounds across the keyboard. Got a mic? Twist and transform your voice with the vocoder, or press record and set a chord on an entirely new course with up to 32-bar MIDI looping and powerful arpeggiation.
Multi-instruments
Program a split point to load two different sounds across the keyboard for a multitimbral playing style. Great for adding a percussive sequence or bass section to some delicate keys or a high-frequency lead. Or, create your own dynamic multi-instruments and save them to be used later in your DAW.
Chord, Scale, Arp
Looking for extra melodic and harmonic inspiration? The chord, scale and arpeggiator modes mean you can easily embellish your performance, stay in key and trigger vibrant sequences, all at once. Use the Hold function to let the sound evolve after you release the key.
Loop & record
Elaborate your performance or studio experimentation by looping any melody or chord progression. Better still, AstroLab captures the MIDI so you can change to any instrument and hear your recorded phrase in entirely new ways.
Vocoder
Plug-in an external mic to AstroLab and send your voice through AstroLab’s dedicated vocoder and harness multi-octave vocal transformation. Expand supported voice-input presets when combined with Vocoder V.
Iconic instruments
and beyond
Discover an expansive instrument and sound library curated to cater to every musical genre and era: from essential performance instruments and true-to-life acoustic sounds to timeless synths and crisp digital landscapes.
