A power supply is NOT included but is sold separately. You are also able to use the Keylab as a standalone MIDI keyboard, in which case you'll need an external power supply.

Please note: The Keylab is USB-powered, meaning that your computer or laptop will function as a power supply.

All in all, you'll have everything you need to produce music. In total, there are more than 6,000 sounds available like the CS80, the Martix 12, the B#, the Jupiter 8, the Synclavier, and Minimoog among them. In addition to Ableton Live Lite, you'll also get UVI Grand Piano and Analog Lab which offers an enormous number of virtual synths sounds including some vintage classics. The pads can be used to trigger blocks which is handy when playing live. In addition to being used for crafting drum beats, the RGB pads are ideal for use with the included Ableton Live Lite DAW software that is excellent for EDM. Of course, there are also 49 good-quality keys as well as pitch and modulation wheels. The on-board transport buttons for playing, recording, and stopping music mean that you won't have to return to your DAW as often either. The RGB pads allow you to lay down drum patterns more easily too. With its encoders and faders, controlling things like virtual synthesizers is much easier with the Keylab 49 Essential than it is with a computer mouse. That makes the Keylab 49 a complete USB/MIDI keyboard that's an excellent choice for using with your DAW software and virtual instruments. Arturia's Essential models take the best bits from all of them and put them together in one tidy, affordable package. There are plenty of models on the market and each has its own pros and cons. USB/MIDI keyboards are extremely popular not just in the studio but also on the road.
