Text to speech makes Analog Lab V more accessible to persons with visual challenges.
With a MIDI controller connected and configured, Analog Lab V will verbally read what is displayed on the controller’s screen and/ or what parameter is being controlled when a knob, slider, or button is moved.
Note: it works with Arturia controllers, but also non-Arturia controllers.
You have three ways of activating the Text to Speech feature in Analog Lab. Two ways are through Analog Lab, one way is by using a KeyLab Essential Controller or a KeyLab MkII controller.

You have three ways of activating the Text to Speech feature in Analog Lab. Two ways are through Analog Lab, one way is by using a KeyLab Essential Controller or a KeyLab MkII controller.
The first one is through Analog Lab itself using an Arturia MIDI controller:
- First, make sure that your controller is connected and that the right controller is selected in the MIDI Section of the Side Panel.
- Then, open the side panel by clicking on the gear icon.
- Once in the side panel, go in 'Settings', 'Global Settings', and then choose 'On' in the Text to Speech drop-down menu.
You can now test it out and enjoy using Analog Lab !
The second one is by using a KeyLab Essential controller or a KeyLab MkII controller.
We will take the KeyLab Essential 49 as an example:
- First, press Map Select and then Analog Lab.
- Hold the Category and Preset buttons on the KeyLab.
- Press the main encoder and release.
- Turn the main encoder
- Press the main encoder again to validate
You can now test it out and enjoy using Analog Lab !
The last one is by using a non-arturia MIDI Controller:
- Select Generic 9 Knobs or Generic 9 Knobs + 9 Faders from the Midi Controller menu of the MIDI Tab in the Settings panel
- Click Add Control at the bottom of the MIDI assignments list to bring up the full menu of MIDI destinations, and assign encoders and buttons to the following parameters:
- Navigate through presets: encoder
- Select preset: button
- Navigate through filters: encoder
- Add/Remove filters: button
- Then, MIDI Learn physical controls to the Performance Controls that are displayed.
You can now test it out and enjoy using Analog Lab!
