    Compact enough controls for a minimal footprint, powered by USB 2.0.

    UTILIZATION

    Pretty simple to use, but the software config Logic has disabled the modulation wheel. Better to set up manually.
    For cons, the transport buttons (stop, record, rewind) are definitely a plus.
    Keyboard touch too soft, but you can not choose the 25 keys to play on stage, so no problem.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for three years and this keyboard is generally satisfactory. In practice, the pitch wheel goes crazy between the values ​​between 64 and 90.

    The Oxygen 25 USB MIDI controller has eight assignable knobs, plus dedicated transport and track select buttons that motivated my choice.
    Another characteristic that motivated my choice was the DirectLink mode that automatically maps these controls to common DAW functions including transport, mixer, track pan and plug-in parameters.
    It has a midi type of connection.


    UTILIZATION

    The general configuration of the program it's very simple and easy to follow.
    The manual has a nice description regarding the knobs, slides, velocity sensitive keys, and also about the unique Select buttons for on-the-fly step-through of presets, program changes and MIDI channels.

    The patch selection is easy to follow even for an amateur, it's very straight-forward and well designed.

    OVERALL OPINION

    What I like most about it, it's the price, it costs around 100$.
    Another great thing about this product is that it can be easy to carry on your trips if you're a Dj or a music producer that travels a lot.
    However if You're a pianist or just someone that likes to use many octaves in his creations, this product may not be for you, because it has only 25 velocity-sensitive keys, which sometimes is not enough if you're more into classical music, pop, rock or any other genre that requires tonal movement.

    I do enjoy how the keys feel, however it's not the greatest velocity sensitive keyboard out there, but it works pretty decent for it's money, quality of sound is on a high level and I like the material of what it's made.

    I must mention that this product doesn't have any drum pads which I find very bad, because if you build your own drums patters you must buy an additional MPK controller or something similar.

    Knowing what I know I would buy this product only if I wanted something cheap and easy to carry.

    purchase motivated by the number of functions offered at this price.
    USB connection

    UTILIZATION

    having no notion of piano I can not really judge the touch
    the config is very simple, your software takes care, no need to book.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for over a year year, this is my first keyboard.
    for starting the mao is a good product that has said that price you have to know what to expect: a key no longer works, the pitch tremble if you play close to a subwoofer (easy problem to solve with the assignment, but can not play with the pitch wheel then) the only fader does not work anymore ..

    Very nice for the price

    I was looking for a cheap USB keyboard and compact, with few controls (pots, knobs), and easy to use.

    UTILIZATION

    I previously owned a 49-key Change, an M-Audio Axiom 25 and a Korg R3 (who also knows how synth keyboard). For comparison:
    The Oxygen 25 has a lower reach is a bit soft. Not being a pianist, it does not bother me, I use the keyboard to type my notes in my sequencer and play with sounds to compose. I'm not performing.
    Different functions (program change, change octave, volume ...) are directly accessible, no menus / sub-menu, it works. Where Axiom 25 was very cryptic, the Oxygen 25 exudes simplicity.

    It has a function to change tracks in the software, a push of a button. It works on Reason, and it's a feature I use on stage. A nice surprise!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had two months, I'm happy. It takes up little space on my desk and is pleasant to use. The pots / knobs / slider is firm and responsive, touch again a little soft, but for the price (99 euros) you can make music without breaking the bank. I recommend it.

    Very good keyboard 25 keys

    M-Audio Oxygen 25Published on 02/27/11 at 04:25
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    A keyboard relatively compact and lightweight with:
    - 25 velocity-sensitive keys
    - 8 knobs
    - A slider for volume
    - 6 buttons (play, stop rec ...) to control the sequencer.
    - A jack for a pedal substain
    - A power button (useful for not having to unplug it when not in use)
    - A 2-digit LED display
    - Buttons to change octave and program
    - A competitive price compared to other more advanced models (eg Axiom in the same brand)

    UTILIZATION

    I bought this keyboard in addition to an M-Audio Axiom 61 Pro.
    I wanted a keyboard light and not too expensive and this model fits perfectly to my expectations.

    It is recognized by software without problems I have (Cubase, Live and Reason)…

    UTILIZATION

    I bought this keyboard in addition to an M-Audio Axiom 61 Pro.
    I wanted a keyboard light and not too expensive and this model fits perfectly to my expectations.

    It is recognized by software without problems I have (Cubase, Live and Reason) and standalone versions of plugins or type SampleTank Kontakt.

    The manual is correct and available in PDF on the manufacturer's website, which allows to dispense with the paper version comes with the keyboard.

    The configuration is simple and done by pressing a few buttons.
    It can be annoying for some functions we use, but for the most common, it's faster than standard models Axiom Pro where you go through the menus on the LCD screen.

    At the touch, it is far from Axiom Pro models are semi-weighted and accurate in capturing the dynamics of play, but for a 25-key keyboard is not very important.
    For some uses (eg record a drum beat), I even found it's better not to have semi-weighted.

    The knobs have a race of about 270 °, in contrast to Axiom have free rotation through 360 ° with LEDs that indicate the value.
    This is great for making a quick adjustment, but they are not motorized, they do not take into account changes made in sequencing the mouse, so it falls to the value of the button as soon as we move a little.


    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for a year and I am very satisfied.

    What I appreciate most is its size and weight, it is very light and you can move it with one hand.
    It does not take too much space on my desk and I can take him on vacation with my protable.
    There are smaller models, but the size of the keys is no longer standard.
    The quick selection of the parameters of such velocity curve is very handy.

    Its price / quality ratio is excellent, especially when compared to the Axiom Pro 25 of the same brand that is 3 times more expensive.
    So what choice I would do without hesitation.

    Note: there is no input / output noon, just USB, for me it was not useful, but for others it may be important.
