M-Audio Oxygen Pro 25 – 25 Key USB MIDI Keyboard Controller With Beat Pads, MIDI assignable Knobs & Buttons, and Software Suite Included

I got this to replace an Akai mk2 mini that started dying on me. I expected the short keys but didn't pay attention. I'm glad I didn't, because this feels great to play. The keys aren't springy/synthy feeling, but aren't like full weighted keys. They have a nice almost-clack that is pleasing to play, and makes some phrases feel more natural than they might on a more springy keyboard. Another reason I like this is the pitch bend and mod wheel. They have a nice feel to them, but are otherwise typical, it's just they're replacing a controller that uses a stick that controls both, making it impossible to do a full pitch bend and mod. So this is another big upgrade from what I came from. The drum pads don't seem like anything special, but there's nothing wrong with them. The knobs feel fine. It works fine with my DAW (Cubase). There's a whole lot on this keyboard that wouldn't be worth writing home about, but it all feels much nicer than what the price would suggest. It feels like a real device as opposed to a toy, like some other controllers can feel like. Overall it's a complete win in my book.

Me encantó el producto no tiene nada que criticar los dawns son más que suficientes y el producto y sus componentes son de exelente calidad apartep de que cuenta con after touch sin duda lo volvería a comprar.

Nice little machine fits on desk beside computer keyboard. This is a fun touse little machine. Onlything I would chage is to add another octave...but then it wouldn't fitonmy desk. I am very found of it.

I specifically got this midi controller to use with PreSonus Studio One. It took a while to figure out everything but it configured well and it it's loaded with sounds and features. It also comes with some nice VSTs and another DAW called MPC Beats if you just need an easy way to build loops. Note that although it can be used with any DAW, this is not just another Ableton Live specific midi controller like Arturia keyboards (Arturia is unecessarily complicated to setup their control surface with anything but Ableton Live). I would highly recommend this M-Audio controller for any user of PreSonus Studio One or for any DAW (it also comes with a free version of Ableton Live Lite as well if that is your preference).

Me encantó y me es de muchísima utilidad para producir música fuera de mi estudio
