M-Audio Oxygen 49 MKV USB/MIDI Keyboard

General

Still keeping things affordable for both entry-level producers and musicians on the go, the next-gen M-Audio Oxygen MKV keyboard is a USB/MIDI hub packed with features and options, all fully honed to support every step of the production process. This model comes loaded with forty-nine keys, supplying more than enough notes to lay down chords and melodies, while beats can be intuitively tapped in via the bank of eight velocity-sensitive pads. Control and tweak the parameters of your plugins via the wealth of fitted encoders and faders, and via the transport section, trigger play, stop and record without even having to reach for the mouse. As an extra bonus, this keyboard comes bundled up with a neat, beginner-friendly software stack, including Ableton Live Lite and MPC Beats as well as a pretty fat library of sounds to start playing with.
