Arturia BeatStep Pro is a versatile performance sequencer and MIDI controller designed for studio and live use. It features two independent 64-step melodic sequencers and a 16-track drum sequencer, each with detailed step editing for pitch, velocity, and gate time. The unit includes hands-on performance controls such as a looper/roller touch strip, randomizer, swing adjustment, and touch-sensitive knobs. Customizable MIDI mode allows control of DAWs, virtual instruments, and external hardware, while extensive connectivity options include USB, MIDI In/Out, CV/Gate, clock in/out, DIN sync, and drum gate outputs. Supporting 16 Projects with 16 sequences each, the BeatStep Pro offers a compact, portable design and a Kensington lock for secure setups, making it suitable for integrated studio workflows, rehearsal, and live performance environments.

• Dual Melodic and Drum Sequencers: BeatStep Pro includes two independent 64-step melodic sequencers and a 16-track drum sequencer, letting you sequence melodies and rhythms simultaneously. Each melodic step allows independent control of pitch, velocity, and gate time, while the drum sequencer supports both real-time and step recording, making it suitable for studio and live performance workflows.
• Real-Time Performance Controls: Performers can adjust sequences on the fly using the looper/roller touch strip, randomizer with adjustable probability, independent swing, and touch-sensitive knobs. These hands-on controls allow live variation, rhythmic nuance, and expressive manipulation of sequences, patterns, and effects, enhancing both studio sessions and stage performances.
• Fully Customizable MIDI Controller: Customizable MIDI mode lets you trigger DAW clips, send MIDI CC, note data, and program changes to virtual instruments or external hardware. Pads and step buttons are velocity- and pressure-sensitive, enabling hands-on control over sequences, instruments, and effects for versatile composition, live performance, and hybrid studio setups.
• Extensive Connectivity Options: BeatStep Pro provides USB, MIDI In/Out, CV/Gate outputs, clock in/out, DIN sync, and eight drum gate outputs, allowing connection to computers, modular synths, drum machines, and legacy hardware. This versatile interface supports integration with modern and classic setups, ensuring seamless sequencing, performance, and production workflows.
• Project Management and Portable Design: Supports 16 Projects with 16 sequences per melodic sequencer and 16 drum patterns each, enabling fast recall of complete arrangements. The unit measures 16.3 x 6.4 x 1.4 inches, weighs 3.2 lbs, and includes a Kensington lock for secure setups. Its compact design makes it suitable for studio use, rehearsal, or transport to live performances.
