Product Description

zZounds is an
authorized M-Audio dealer

The Oxygen 25 USB MIDI controller delivers next-generation functionality from M-Audio, the leading innovator in mobile music production technology. The Oxygen 25 features eight assignable knobs, plus dedicated transport and track select buttons. DirectLink mode automatically maps these controls to common DAW functions including transport, mixer, track pan and plug-in parameters.

Built-in factory presets offer support for popular virtual instruments right out of the box -- no complicated setup required. Velocity-sensitive keys and a sleek, compact design round out a portable keyboard that's perfect for laptop production, live DJ performance, triggering samples or composing on the go. No other MIDI controller in this price range has so much functionality while remaining easy to use.

Streamlined Session Control

Featuring eight assignable knobs, a programmable slider, dedicated transport controls and track up/down buttons, the Oxygen 25 gives you total control over your session -- allowing you to stay engaged in the creative flow of recording and mixing music rather than being interrupted by the constant back and forth between QWERTY keyboard and MIDI controller. DirectLink mode automatically maps Oxygen 25 controls to common DAW parameters -- while factory presets provide instant mapping to popular virtual instruments including Xpand2, Hybrid, Velvet, Strike, Oddity, ImpOSCar and MiniMonsta. Use the dedicated Select buttons to quickly switch MIDI channels and presets for deep tactile control over multitimbral hardware and software instruments. Interfacing a MIDI controller with your software doesn't get any easier than this.

Professional Quality

M-Audio pioneered the category of mobile MIDI keyboard controllers, and they continue to be the best-selling name in the game. In fact, M-Audio controllers are used by more professional producers and players than any other brand on the market. Thanks to continued innovation over the course of nearly a decade, you'll find that the Oxygen 25 controller has a solid, reliable build -- and puts as much musicality into the keyboard as it does into the complement of other MIDI controls.

Pro Tools Compatible

The Oxygen 25 MIDI controller offers out-of-the-box integration with Pro Tools(r) software -- the industry standard DAW found in professional, project and personal studios around the world. With DirectLink, the Oxygen 25 controls instantly map to key parameters on the Pro Tools Mixer, Edit and Transport windows -- as well as the powerful suite of virtual instruments bundled with Pro Tools. Together, Oxygen 25 and Pro Tools software provide streamlined workflow in a formidable system with tons of interface options and industry-standard file compatibility.

Ultra-Compact Design

The Oxygen 25 keyboard packs an amazing amount of control for DAWs and soft synths into an incredibly small footprint. There's always room for it -- even in the most crowded desktops, efficient stage rigs or compact studios. It's also the perfect complement to your laptop for making music anywhere inspiration strikes -- whether relaxing on the couch, writing on a plane or jamming on a tourbus. With the Oxygen 25 MIDI controller, you can carry your entire mobile laptop studio in a shoulder bag.

Read all 3 M-Audio Oxygen 25 v3 25-Key USB Keyboard MIDI Controller Reviews

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Great product for the price."

Overall: I'll admit I was a little worried this wouldn't work well with Fruity Loops but I just had to change the midi settings a bit and there was no latency issues at all. This product is great, especially for the price. The only thing is that you can't assign the knobs to anything in Fruity Loops...or you can and I haven't figured it out yet. Having this midi controller has made creating melodies and beats A LOT easier and less time consuming. I used to write out the music in Noteworthy Composer and then import the midi file for my melodies and whatnot but with the Oxygen I can just hit the record button and play so I get a more accurate representation of what I hear in my head. I think that for my needs 25 keys is plenty. Honestly I was worried it wouldn't be enough but you can also change the octave with the controller so it's perfect. One thing I didn't realize until I got it was that note velocity changes with how hard you press the key. This is a great product and I highly recommend it.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Oxygen 25 has put the game in check!!! Respect dat!"

Sound: There is no sound... Its a MIDI controller. And its awesome! Feature: Direct link!!! AWESOME! but make sure its one of the seven or eight they have on their site. They have a file you download and install and it basically links the controller to the DAW flawlessly! Cubase, pro tools, Live, reason, and logic and i think a couple others too. Plus its got a preset scroll through mode! convenient!!! and a track up and down button. So you can almost construct a song completely without touching the PC or mac! Just cant do sequence editing from it. Maybe some day! LOL Ease of Use: Simple, and yet full featured! and really lightweight. Quality: Seems rugged. Haven't owned it for long so we'll see Value: It had all the features i was looking for for a small portable controller. Very pleased! Manufacturer Support: Didn't need it. A noob might need a little help but it doesnt need drivers installed. Class compliant! But Direct link software must be installed for it to link up seamless to your software. Works great with cubase 5!!! Love it! The Wow Factor: Sex appeal? Ok, sure its got some nice curves and a nice bottom... Cmon, the pic says it all. Overall: As long as my son doesnt use it as a toy I think it'll last.

Style of Music: Hip Hop, Alternative, experimental, Pop
