    After receiving my Minilab 3, I really feel I have to give some feedback. The first thing every beginner (like myself) needs is clear guidance. The video's on your channel seem helpful, but that's if you're familiar with the product. Lots of comments I read are about struggling with the actual set-up. We need a clear path on how to use and what programs to use: which programs are actually included? Which are necessary and why? Which are optional and have a subscription added to them? What are the basic steps to start discovering the device? It seems, for you guys it's all obvious and clear. But I feel me (and lots of other enthousiast) are really struggling with the early stages of understanding the Minilab 3. Pleas: Approach these video's like we are newbies (which we are;)
    Thank you very much.

      I ran into every problem you listed above. They NEED a manual alongside it that is clear and concise. The PDF manuals are good, but you can very much tell its extremely simplified and doesn't explain the stuff you'd like explained, they're also a hassle to navigate to. The amount of software stuff and all the info you NEED is quite overwhelming and I can see it turning people away from wanting to learn.

    Missing frame at 3:46 : Lena activated the Arpeggiator function before recording [Shift + Pad#1]. You can see the tiny "stair-shaped" squares on the bottom-right of the LCD display: it means "Arp" mode is activated.
    Then at 4:03 Lena deactivated it before recording the "version two" of the lead.

      DAW's like Ableton Live are not simple applications, particularly when dealing with midi. You have to be committed to a fairly long learning curve. Just the nature of the beast.

      In Ableton, open the Browser and click Plug-Ins so you can see what, if anything, is currently detected. Now open Settings / Preferences and select the Plug-Ins tab on the left. Turn on “Use VST3 Plug-In System Folders” and you should see immediate indication that it’s scanning, and with any luck a VST3 folder will appear in Browser. Close the settings and you’ll hopefully find Analog Lab there now under an Arturia folder.

    A terrible how-to. Instead of actually doing what she says she is going to do, she just looks straight ahead, uninspired, jumping over every important step. "I'm gonna add a drum rack" - but that was already in there. You did't even let us hear the finished thing. Meaningless for all skill levels.

      You need to connect a microphone through an audio interface, connected via USB directly to your computer. Minilab 3 is not an audio interface, and does not transmit audio signal; only MIDI signal.

This lady drag some samples in from nowhere and then just skips all the parts that are actually tedious to figure out. Literally every person on youtube is just doing exactly what I want to do with this like it's nothing yet it seems like it's impossible to actually do what they are doing.
