Arturia MiniLab 3 White

A great improvement over the MiniLab 2, this model is just as reliable and feels more updated with the USB C connectivity. Keys and knobs are sturdy enough for an instrument in this price range and the touchpads present an elegant and economic solution that preserves the portable form factor while allowing for greater expression. Software package is quite interesting and the instrument's potential expands as you acquire more sounds and other programs with which to make it shine. I have it for over a year and sometimes I still stare at that little white elephant in awe of how great it looks and how much of a good time I've had playing it.
