AstroLab 88 is the result of 25 years of Arturia’s passion for music, innovation, and seamless creative flow. This stage keyboard combines a full-size Fatar TP-40L hammer-action keybed, premium sounds, and a modern workflow to help artists stay in their creative zone without compromise.

Power in every sound

Inside AstroLab 88 are over 40 onboard instruments and more than 1600 presets, built from Arturia’s legendary V Collection, Pigments synthesizer, and the Augmented series. From warm analog synths to futuristic digital textures and deeply modeled acoustic instruments — all sounds are fully accessible without a computer. AstroLab 88 lets you perform fully independently.

Ready for the stage

AstroLab 88 is designed for the stage: the upgraded CPU ensures fast sound loading and high polyphony — essential for live performance. Its minimalist yet durable aluminum and Bakelite chassis guarantees reliability on tour, while remaining lightweight and easy to transport.

An interface that adapts to you

AstroLab 88 features an intuitive OLED display and tactile navigation wheel for easy browsing and editing. Four macro controls allow quick sound shaping, while ten programmable buttons provide one-touch access to your favorite sounds and sets. Built-in effects — reverb, delay, and up to 12 insert FX — let you craft your sound directly from the keyboard.

Real-time creative flow

Chord, Scale, and Arpeggiator modes help you stay in key and enrich your performance with harmonies and rhythms. Assign different instruments across the keyboard with split points and save them as multi-instruments. Plus, with the ability to record and loop up to 32 bars of MIDI, you can capture musical ideas live and instantly transform them into something new.

Vocal Experiments & Bluetooth

A unique built-in vocoder feature, based on Arturia Vocoder V, allows you to connect a microphone and create vocal effects live on stage. Thanks to the Bluetooth audio input, you can play backing tracks wirelessly and perform over them.

From Studio to Stage

AstroLab 88 is the first stage keyboard to fully integrate with DAWs via Analog Lab Pro. Sounds created in the studio can be easily transferred to the stage — no computer required. With AstroLab Connect, musicians have full control over presets, playlists, macros, and settings via smartphone or tablet.

Legendary Sound

AstroLab 88 features over 60 sounds inspired by iconic artists — from Yes, Queen, and Tangerine Dream to Lady Gaga and Tame Impala. Instantly dive into the style of your favorite performers and experience their sonic signature.
