Скачать или смотреть Virtual Arturia Astrolab: DIY vs. Buying the Hardware

I’ve been seriously considering the Arturia AstroLab—but before committing to dedicated hardware, I wanted to understand what I’d actually gain from the workflow.
In this video, I build a “virtual AstroLab” inside Ableton Live using Analog Lab’s native 8-macro layout, mapped directly to an Instrument Rack. This mirrors the control philosophy of AstroLab hardware and allows me to test the experience using controllers I already own—before buying anything.
I’ll walk through:
Why this works (and why it’s not an arbitrary mapping)
The exact tools involved
Step-by-step setup in Ableton
Playing and swapping controllers (Launchkey → Move)
Evaluating the workflow before you buy.
