About this product
The Arturia BeatStep Pro is a versatile pad controller and sequencer with 16 synth-style keys. It features MIDI DIN In/Out and USB connectivity, making it compatible with a wide range of gear. This analog/digital unit includes pad triggers, a sequencer, and one pedal input. It is powered via USB and comes in white.
Our take
The BeatStep Pro is a powerhouse for sequencing and controlling gear. The 16 velocity-sensitive pads are responsive, and the sequencer is deep enough for complex patterns. I love the MIDI DIN ports for connecting to older synths without a computer. However, the synth-style keys are not full-size and can feel cramped for piano-style playing. At $492.47, it's an investment, but for producers who need a hands-on sequencer, it's worth every penny.
