USB Driver Installation on the Mac
You must first install Opcode ‘s OMS.This is available on the MIDISPORT
drivers page of our website,or can be installed from the driver CD by opening
the OMS folder and then double clicking the OMS install icon.
This release version of the Oxygen 8 driver requires Macintosh operating system
OS 9.04 or higher. Some updates are offered free to Apple owners. Please check
the Apple website at http://asu.info.apple.com for update information.
OMS is a MIDI manager program that is made by Opcode. We have included it
on the CD disk for your convenience,and also offer it as a free download from our
website ‘s MIDISPORT drivers page. OMS is required to run the Oxygen 8 on the
Macintosh,and it is important that you install OMS before running the Oxygen 8
Installer. Locate the OMS installer program on this CD in the OMS 2.3.7 folder,
and simply double click its icon to install OMS. Once this has been successfully
completed,you can move on to the next step-the KEYSTATION Installer.
FOR FIRST TIME INSTALLS: If you power up your Mac with the
Oxygen 8 attached and powered up, you will receive a message
that an “unknown USB device has been detected. Click OK and
proceed with the driver installation. You may also install the drivers
first, and then plug in the Oxygen 8.
1.Insert the Driver Software CD. Open the KEYSTAION folder,then the USB folder.
There,you will find the KEYSTATION Installer program.
2.Run the KEYSTATION Installer by double clicking on it. This installs all of the
KEYSTATION ‘s extensions as well as the KEYSTATION OMS Driver.
However,YOU MUST HAVE OMS INSTALLED FIRST BEFORE YOU RUN
THIS INSTALLER PROGRAM. Otherwise, the KEYSTATION OMS Driver
will not be placed in the OMS folder.
Once installed,you should have 2 KEYSTATION extensions in your extensions
folder,which resides in your System folder. They are:1)KEYSTATIONDriver;
2)KEYSTATIONShim. The installer will also place the KEYSTATION OMS
Driver in the OMS folder,which also resides in your system folder. Now it is
time to configure OMS.
Go to the Control Panel or Chooser under the Apple Menu,and make sure
AppleTalk is turned off (this is recommended,although OMS will sense that it
is on and prompt you to turn it off). If you are installing your Oxygen 8 ‘s
KEYSTATION driver and configuring OMS for the first time,follow these
instructions to configure OMS.

Offer applies only to single-receipt qualifying purchases. Select manufacturers may require that only the manufacturer’s products qualify towards the minimum purchase amount needed to be eligible for promotional financing. Otherwise, an invoice that meets the minimum purchase amount and contains at least one qualifying manufacturer product is eligible for promotional financing. No interest will be charged on promo purchase balance, and equal monthly payments are required on promo purchase until it is paid in full. The payments equal the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next whole dollar. These payments may be higher than the payments that would be required if this purchase was a non-promo purchase. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to the prior months’ rounding. Regular account terms apply to non-promo purchases. New Accounts as of 07/31/2025: Purchase APR is 34.99%. Penalty APR is 39.99%. Min Interest Charge is $2. Existing cardholders: See your credit card agreement terms. Subject to credit approval.

The estimated required monthly payment shown which excludes taxes and delivery equals the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next cent. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to this rounding. These payments apply only with the financing offer shown. If you make these payments by the due date each month, you should pay off this amount financed within the promo period, if it is the only balance you are paying off. If you have other balances on your account, this payment will be added to any other minimum monthly payments.
