ARTURIA KEYSTEP 37 MK2
_Universal sequencing controller
KeyStep 37 mk2 is the ultimate compact controller & sequencer for hybrid setups. With a 37-note Slimkey keyboard, hands-on encoders, generative sequencing tools, and deep connectivity via CV/Gate, MIDI DIN, and USB-C — spark ideas in your DAW, pilot any synth, or patch modular without breaking your flow.
Step into
your next idea
KeyStep 37 mk2 is more than keys. It’s a sequencer, arpeggiator, and musical nerve-centre that bridges hardware and software so you can compose, jam, and perform anywhere your ideas take you.
Hands-on control
Play, arpeggiate, and sequence ideas the moment they strike. KeyStep 37’s OLED display, 4 mode-aware encoders, and full RGB feedback also make every edit fast and intuitive.
Generative creativity
Capture a riff, turn it into a sequence, then transform it with mutation tools and real-time performance control. Keep inspiration flowing with features that invite constant discovery and movement.
Universal connectivity
Command modular, vintage, and modern gear alongside your DAW. Controllable CV/Gate, MIDI DIN, Sync I/O, and USB-C keep every piece of your setup talking, and in time.
Control & sequence
anything
From sketching a melody to shaping full arrangements, KeyStep 37 mk2 keeps ideas on the move. Every touch, twist, and note responds instantly, letting you build, evolve, and perform without interruption.
Slimkey keybed: 37 expressive keys with velocity & aftertouch.
16 mode arpeggiator: From simple cycles to creative melodic textures.
Pitch & mod touch strips: Smooth bends and modulation plus live Gate/Spice/Dice sliders.
4 mode-aware encoders: Instant access to Seq/Arp/Chord/Mutate editing.
Mutate, Spice & Dice: Instant, musical variations and controlled randomness.
Controllable CV/Gate outputs: Four outputs for pitch, gate, and modulation — with flexible mapping.
Polyphonic step sequencer: Record or program up to 64 steps of 8-note polyphony.
Chord & Scale modes: Lock to a key and trigger full chords for harmonic flow.
Full-size MIDI DIN + Sync I/O: Seamless DAW, hardware, and Eurorack integration.
Inspiration
on command
From first riff to full pattern, KeyStep 37 mk2 is designed for hands-on evolution. Trigger sequences, tweak arp behavior, and dial in performance changes with immediate controls. Overdub, record automation, and transform an idea in seconds, without breaking tempo.
More keys
deeper control
KeyStep 37 mk2 expands the mk2 workflow with extra playing range, dedicated hands-on controls, and performance-ready shortcuts — letting you tweak all the details in real time.
More keys, clearer feedback
Five extra keys give you more range for two-hand parts and wider chord shapes. LEDs above the keys keep you oriented at a glance — sequence progress, banks, patterns, and scale context.
Mode-aware encoders
A dedicated Control button and 4 encoders put core edits under your fingers while playing. Switch between Seq, Arp, Chord, and Mutate, and the encoders automatically remap to the parameters that matter in the moment.
Deeper MIDI + CV control
Tap MIDI CC for 16 assignable controls across 4 banks, mapped to the encoders and available across modes. Plus, controllable CVMOD outputs let you adapt modulation type and range to your modular gear fast.
3 modes
working as one
KeyStep 37 mk2’s modes work in synergy to keep ideas evolving - capture a riff, turn it into a sequence, mutate it, and keep the momentum alive.
Sequencer mode
Create and play back polyphonic patterns. Chain, overdub, undo, mutate, automate bends/mod, and transform sequences live - great for hardware rigs and sketching ideas in your DAW.
Arpeggiator mode
Choose from 16 arp types including Poly, Walk, Pattern, and Random. Phrase Arp remaps your sequence to played notes for immediate, musical mutations.
Controller mode
With MIDI, USB, and CV, KeyStep 37 mk2 handles it all. Use it as a central controller to sequence gear, input chords, or modulate CV synths from one compact keyboard.
Every port
every possibility
KeyStep 37 mk2 is your universal creative interface. Patch into modular systems, control synths from past and present, and synchronize your drum machines. Ready to command any setup - live, in the studio, or on the move.
Digital & analog, unified
Full-size MIDI DIN I/O for classic hardware, USB-C for DAWs and soft-synths, and assignable CV/Gate for modular.
CV for modular minds
Four CV/Gate outs mappable to velocity, aftertouch, mod-wheel, and more. Patch lines, open filters, ping envelopes: expressive control.
Sync, sustain & convert
3.5 mm Sync In/Out for vintage gear, TRS sustain/expression input for feel, plus MIDI In → CV to play modular from external keys.
