This is an overview of the Arturia KeyLab 88 MKII, which I purchased a couple days ago. Bottom line: I love this thing!!

I wasn't planning on posting a video about it and was actually just making a video to send to my dad, but I figured maybe someone on YouTube would enjoy seeing it. Thank you for watching, and if you have any questions, please drop me a note, and I'll see what I can do to help.

And, if you're interested, here's a fairly long story about what led me to getting it.

I grew up in a very musical family. My dad played in the US Military Academy Band at West Point, and my mom majored in music in college. Ever since I was a baby, I'd bang on pots and pans and play along with any music that was playing. I must have inherited some of my parents musical genes because I decided to start taking drum lessons at age 5.

My mom was an amazing piano player and blew me away with her perfect pitch and how she could name multiple notes simply by hearing them play. I had tinkered with the piano on and off throughout my life, but at age 12, I decided I wanted to play for real and started taking lessons.

When I got into 9th or 10th grade, I decided to join the school choir, and then when I graduated, some friends and I tried to "go pro" and become famous by forming a rock band.

Well, we never went pro or became famous, but that was still a fun part of my life. When I got into my early mid 20s, I ended up selling my drum set and keyboard equipment to buy a rare muscle car and never really played any instruments after that.

Over the years, I missed playing the piano because it allowed me to fully express my feelings. Drums were fun to play, but it wasn't really "music." With the piano, I could make beautiful melodies. Even though I missed playing, I never acted upon it until a month ago when I decided it was time to start playing again.

I didn't have anything to play on, so I loaded up GarageBand on my iPad and wrote a tune. That was fun but difficult to input while playing on a tiny glass screen, and that's when I decided I needed something more.

I read as many reviews and watched as many videos as I could to see what was available and debated between a real digital piano - something like the Roland FP-30 or FP-60 and a MIDI controller keyboard. After thinking about it for a couple weeks, I decided on the Arturia. I wanted the white one, but all stores were sold out.

Well, after a couple days later, I got a notification from B&H Photo that they had gotten them in stock. I asked my wife if I could get one, and she said, "Yes," and actually encouraged me to get it. She placed the order, and it arrived a couple days later. This is a quick overview of what I think about it.
