An Affordable Way to Take Control of Your DAW and Plug-ins!

With the Oxygen 49 keyboard and control surface from M-Audio, music creation couldn't be easier! It features 49 keys, nine sliders, and dedicated transport and track selection buttons, offering user-friendly, hands-on parameter manipulation for a large variety of DAWs and plug-ins. The Oxygen 49's DirectLink mode assigns each slider, button, and encoder to common functions such as mixer, pan, and transport controls in DAWs including Pro Tools, Logic, Reason, and Cubase, as well as several common plug-ins. Velocity sensitive keys and USB power also add flexibility and portability to the Oxygen 49.

M-Audio Oxygen 49 49-Key Controller Keyboard and Control Surface at a Glance:
  • Streamlined controls you can't get lost in
  • Instant control of popular DAWs and plug-ins
  • Super-affordable Pro Tools parameter control

Streamlined controls you can't get lost in
One of the Oxygen 49's primary features is that it is incredibly easy use. The layout, divided neatly into separate sections, makes finding the right control element a snap. For instance, the transport has its own dedicated section under the encoder knobs, so you can't get it confused with the on-the-fly selector buttons near the LCD display. The sliders are divided into two banks of four with a separate slider that is typically assigned to the master fader in a DAW.

Instant control of popular DAWs and plug-ins
DirectLink automatically maps it sliders, encoders, and transport to parameters like track volumes, pans values, and the transport controls of several common DAWs including Pro Tools, Logic, Reason, and Cubase, with additional DAW support to come. Also, the Oxygen 49 contains built-in factory presets that support popular virtual instruments, adding a tactile element to adjusting parameters and increasing its value as a live keyboard.

Super-affordable Pro Tools parameter control
There are still few control surfaces that will work with Pro Tools, most of which cost many times more than the Oxygen 49. Now you can get a multi-function keyboard controller whose compatibility extends fully into Pro Tools — all the way from M-Powered up to HD! With this ultra-affordable controller, there's no need to mouse around any more.

M-Audio Oxygen 49 49-Key Controller Keyboard and Control Surface Features:
  • 49 velocity-sensitive keys
  • 8 MIDI-assignable knobs
  • 9 MIDI-assignable sliders
  • 6 dedicated transport controls
  • Dedicated track up/down buttons
