I am not a music producer but just yesterday I was blessed with full studio equipment and it happens to include that M-Audio Oxygen 25. I hope to create magic with whoever is going to be my Music Producer.
I bought a brand new M-Audio Oxygen 25 controller a few years ago and it was a nightmare. It had no dedicated USB driver. Only the Windows driver that comes with your operating software for Windows. It was constantly breaking connection. I was so glad to sell this headache to someone else. Beware of these units. I'm using an older rock solid Roland midi keyboard that's hard wired to my trusty MOTU micro express and every time I turn on my midi keyboard it's ready to go. Don't throw your money away. Beware! Nothing against you Sanjay, you're trying move product. I respect that. I still enjoy your channel very much.
To answer your question - i almost never use arps and chords features on controllers, except on Minilab, sometimes, just for the sake of fun and on Komplete Kontrol S49. This is kindy funny, because on hardware synths i do use arpeggiators and sequencers ( but then again its about how do you approach music creation. Also, mini keys, not my cup of tea, although i do have few synths and controllers (Minilogue, Korg Micro, Minilogue xd, Arturia Keylab and Keystep pro) with mini keys, but i play these synths from my REV2/Prophet 10 keybeds. I even have Korg Nano for on flight sketches. So it depends whether i am on the move or in the studio. My choice of controllers - Doepfer LMK2 88 (pianos and other "organic" instruments), Nektar Panorama P4 (for studio hardware desktop synths and soft synths/DAW), NI S49 (for NI stuff and in combination with Maschine) - those are ones i use on daily basis, then i use Keystep pro, Keylab, Korg Nano for on flight stuff and have some of them from past times - Roland Pc200, old rugged trusty controller:). The depth of integration into DAWS and instruments available on Nektar controllers is unmatched. Panorama can control any daw or instrument directly from the controller in full - you literally dont need to use a mouse. I know other controllers can do similar stuff but i never felt software and hardware merge into one instrument so well as with Nektar controllers - from pianos with footswitch, to multitimbral hardware and software polysinths.. Of course, If you are going for the mini version and 25 keys, than this is fine, but if you want to pay for more keys, do consider Impact or Panorama. Panorama will even offer a motorised fader, great pads and tons of control. BTW it is great for controlling desktop synths too, mapping tons of parameters to its faders, knobs and pads.
Thank u for ur great reviews Sanjay! I am not a pianist by any stretch ( I am a Bassist/Chapman Stickist/Native American Flautist) but I use a very tiny Korg NanoKey or my iPad as a controller for laying down pads and atmosphere for my compositions. This review is extremely helpful in answering some of the questions that I have concerning controllers. Keep it up!
I still have and use my Axiom 25-49 1st Gen. from M Audio. I got the Akai mini mk3 for the modern features, but went back to using the 49 because of needing more keys for using Ujam products. Thanks for your well informed video's.
I think you have finally sold me on the MIDI keyboard controller to get. And it is going to be the M-Audio Oxygen MKV. It appears to be a great value. Thanks, Sanjay!
Just ordered the 49 key version based on ur review here Sanjay. In an effort to challenge myself, I am looking at writing more on a keyboard instrument. I have been creating music as of late using a Korg Nano Key which I received as a gift (among other Korg Nano midi controllers) from a friend of mine earlier this year. I have been having a blast with my virtual instruments but I have rather large hands so you can imagine that the Nano Key would wax thin rather swiftly. Along with the larger keys, the mod and pitch wheel will be an added bonus. I am not so hung up on the DAW control as I have a Behringer X Touch plus an Extender. But I imagine I will employ it in some fashion even if only limited. Thanx again for your great reviews!
I think yes, full size keys probably provide the best control. I am a pianist (albeit not a brilliant one), so I am used to playing on full size keys. To get more control of my DAW and on the back of one of your reviews, I have recently become the proud owner of a second M-Audio Controller. I bought the 61 key M-Audio Pro which accompanies the previous version of a 49 key Oxygen. As an added bonus, I have found that the 61 key pro is much better for piano sounds than the older Oxygen. It appears louder but you have a lot more control, attack and response. Full size keys for me all the way.
Hello, I have seen several videos but in none of them does someone talk about how to change the speed of the sensitivity of the keys, do you know how I can do it? for me they sound very loud I don't like the sound it gives me
Thanks for a great video. I purchased the Oxygen 49 a couple weeks ago, and love the key bed and the full size keys. However, I can't for the life of me figure out why I would need the arpegator (sp) or chord features, or even worse how to use them. The manual is not very helpful, and M-Audio customer support is non-existent. Do you have any videos that explain all those bells and whistles (pads, faders, knobs, buttons) and how to use them. Even a book would be helpful. Right now I just have a piano keyboard with a bunch of useless bling above it. Thanks.... Pam
i prefer arturia minilab or akai mpkmini for their portablality, but if seriously wanna get a full size keyboard, i will go for arturia keylab88 . the hammer key thing is awesome.
Thank you for your interesting review. Btw, a few people reviewed that the previous generation Oxygen have problems with velocity and sensitivity of the keys and the pads, are very rough. Please let me know if these have been improved in MKV. Thank you.
Hey Sanjay, do you know how to set up the pads on akai mpk mini 3 for transport on fl studio 20?? I think I want to try this before I buy another keyboard
What is your suggestion to choose between 'M-Audio Oxygen 49 MKV' and 'Novation Launchkey MK3 (49 Keys)'? My primary DAW is Ableton Live but I also use FL Studio.
"Ableton Live... clip triggering is not available." Maybe you meant automatic assignment of clip trigger? Any note can trigger clips in Ableton, including the pads.
I've watch a number of videos on this particular keyboard, this is one of the better ones. Happy to say I found a super one off deal on the MKV4 with Amazon probably as the MKV5 has just been released. Also very happy to learn it has chord and scale features as I don't play keys yet, just some guitar and bass, but those features should get me going...
Hi Sanjay C, thanks for the tutorial. I hope you will have the chance to answer this questions. It was an year ago you made this video. What do you mean with "virtual instrument control its not its strongest feature". Is that why you say "you gonna get better compatibility and integration with Native and arturia synths". With that said, Is the Oxygen MKV still a good MIDI keyboard and WILL work inside Cubase with all my software, Natives/Arturia among others? All the best!
Hi Sanjay.. Great video as always, I like watching your reviews! I have a little dilemma and I wanted to hear your opinion. I want to purchase a compact midi keyboard so I could make some orchestral music on the go.. Any suggestions?
Thanks for your tutorial,very good &clear to understand.I've just received the one I bought,the 49 key keyboard.I noticed the tempo flashes&pad are always lite up.can you turn them off if you want?also,on my old m audio 25 keyboard,it had forward &rewind,the new ones don't.still learning it though
I make a lot of use of arp mode on my Oxygen Pro 49. But Novation has a great one on the Launchkey 37 with Mutate and Deviate iteration/randomization functions that are a bit between truly random and fully controlled, and the chord mode keeps things in key with more extreme Mutate settings.
Great video, Sanjay. I do have a question- Have you discovered if DAW control on this series is compatible with GarageBand? I was hoping since it supports Logic and Pro Tools that GB would be a given, but I can't find any setup for GB. It's completely plug and play for sounds and playing, but controlling it doesn't seem to be supported in GB. Thanks!
Do you think is a good option to work with Logic pro? Just to have a controler for all de midi intruments, and to make some simple drums with the pads etc
Thank you for the video Sanjay . i have owned this MIDI for more than 3 years and after seeing this video i can't help but say that i haven't fully utilized the potential of this MIDI. I use FL Studio for making music. I kindly request for a more detailed video showing how i can use it to control different parameters on VSTs. Thank you again
What do you recommend for beginners.I am just learning piano and I don’t know anything about what you are talking about.Where do I start ?Thanks for the help
Honestly, I'm so confused about which midi controller to get. I was thisclose to buying this one tomorrow but when you said it doesn't trigger virtual instruments well, now I'm doubting it. The Arturia does better with this but does it work well with Logic?
I wanted a quick start to using my new Oxygen 25 and the first two minutes of your video are all about criticism and why I should have chosen another keyboard. Bad.
Cant even get an Oxygen Pro Mini with 32keys. When do these things actually release? When do the Pro versions release? Theres no where to find a real release date.
I just started using Fl Studio about three weeks ago and I'm interested in getting a keyboard. @Sanjay C, Would this be a good choice for the complete beginner?
Do you have any suggestions on classes my son can take on the basics of production. He’s currently playing piano and drums but I’d like to get him introduced to recording. I’m somewhat familiar with ableton, but he really needs a class. Thx
What keyboard do you recommend for a beginner? I have been playing for years and have fullsize keyboards but want an easier way to make music. I was looking into oxygen pro mini, oxygen pro 25 or Akai mpk mini...
What do you suggest I look for if my interest is orchestral music...? Asking coz you mentioned something about not very compatible with virtual instruments..
How would you say the Alesis v25 keys, and pads feel compared to the m audio oxygen 25? Torn between the two, it’s for my iPad set up. Thanks in advance
Hi Sanjay, new to this. I am a trumpet player and OLD (64) but I love EDM and your kind of music. I am interested in making my own. I have an icon 37 key midi keyboard. I hate the keys. Never really did much with it. The keyboards you have reviewed all appeal to me but I would like keys that are real(ish) sized and with a real piano feel. Which 25 key models would suit someone who likes a real piano keyboard? Any?
I bought this new MKV keyboard and it sees Ableton Live, but doesnt seem to work. Only the first two sliders do anything and they just move a knob for a VST. How do I get it to record, use the sliders for volume, etc? I've downloaded the VIP software but have no clue as to how to use it or set it up. Can anyone help me? I write mystery novels....I'll gladly send an authographed book to somebody who can walk me through this!
My oxygen 49 keyboard didnt come with mpc beats or virtual instruments although it said it did.. only thing on my product page is ableton lite, am i doing somthing wrong?
Hi I’m debating between the oxygen pro and the donner dmk 25 .. I do not make beats I’ve actually never purchased a mini , I play piano and was looking for something small to take with me for piano playing.. so I’m more interested in the keys and how they play . Which would you recommend or is there anything else you’d recommend for me instead.. thank you 🙏🏼
Please help me I don't know what is the problem my oxygen 49 loss midi signal after I put off and on its working after some time it losing the midi signal
I don't want to become a professional pianist. I just want to make normal songs (rock, pop, electronic etc.). I had a 49 keys keyboard and felt limited. 88 keys looks too big for me. How much keys keyboard I should have? Is 88 keys worth for me, as I don't need it just for piano but for all other virtual instruments. Any idea?
Do you really need full-size keys for your setup?
Iam not quite sure but I won't say no to it sir.🙂
I like playing piano and I’m traditionally trained in piano so I like to have full sized keys in my studio
I like full
Sized keyboards
I have the iRig 37 for bigger keys, but I love my Arturia Minilab MK2 especially for that software suite.
I like the full keyboard.
I am not a music producer but just yesterday I was blessed with full studio equipment and it happens to include that M-Audio Oxygen 25. I hope to create magic with whoever is going to be my Music Producer.
I didn't think it was out yet? I just preordered mine and it won't ship for a week.

This looks like an insanely affordable birthday gift!
Yes!!!
Yeah...what about gifting myself one on my bday😆
@@premixmpk7070 good idea 😂 thats what i usually do for every now and then..

How do you keep the lights on the pad on like that. I got the oxygen 49 mkv
Love your videos SanjayC! They are the BEST in the biz!
Great review as always Sanjay. Also your studio and video "look" is coming together nicely 😍
Hey buddy! Thanks so much!!
Great review 😎🔥
Glad you liked it!
Sanjay you have a great channel and helpful content! I appreciate you as I'm sure others do too. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
1:24 lol, 25 keys is really not recommended for especially piano. Very very limited. Maybe good enough for bass & drums?
Woo hoo. Let's go. Whoa, the M Audio keybed is the same as my fav, Minilab MKII, but feature wise, m audio honestly wins IMO.
Do you prefer bigger keys, tho?
@@SanjayC Yes! Absolutely, even tho it means I can't carry it in a bag.
Yeah, this is going to take up your whole backpack! haha
i prefer arturia minilab or akai mpkmini for their portablality, but if seriously wanna get a full size keyboard, i will go for arturia keylab88 . the hammer key thing is awesome.

He seems to like the minilab.
@@coolobruh That's only 25 keys, and I'm not sure that's enough..maybe 32 would be a better option. I was thinking of Komplete M32 from NI..

I use FL Studio for making music. I kindly request for a more detailed video showing how i can use it to control different parameters on VSTs. Thank you again
Do you use this FL midi combo on a Mac or windows ? And did you face any difficulties with the initial setup ?
Do you need a computer to change the knobs, pitch bend and mod wheel assignments? Or those can be edited in the keyboard itself (as with the MKIV) ?
Great video thanks. I find the pads too hard myself. I have the Oxygen49 MKV. How did you change the pad sensitivity?
What do you recommend for beginners.I am just learning piano and I don’t know anything about what you are talking about.Where do I start ?Thanks for the help
This is absolute deal breaker for anyone who want full sized keys on a budget
Necktar LX 49+ is better alternative

I've been waiting for the Pro Mini too. I don't know what's going on. I did find the preorder links on Sweetwater and Amazon. See video description

Does is it work on Bandlab?
M-Audio Oxygen keyboard on a budget. Excellent comparison. Thanks Sanjay C.
Most welcome!

Which is better please Arturia Essential 49 or M-Audio MKV 49 or Akai MPk 249
M audio oxygen MKV 61 or Arturia keylab essential 61?
What keyboard do you recommend for a beginner? I have been playing for years and have fullsize keyboards but want an easier way to make music. I was looking into oxygen pro mini, oxygen pro 25 or Akai mpk mini...
Hello folks! Does anyone know if the Oxygen 49 mk5 comes with an editor as the Oxygen Pro 49? Thank you in advance.
What is "clip triggering?" and how appealing is it to have a controller where that is possible?
Very good review, thank you.
I've been using an Axiom 61 for 13 years. The C and F# crap out sometimes, I think I might grab an Oxygen Pro.
I think the Pro is a really great choice
@@SanjayC Definitely will check it out.
What do you suggest I look for if my interest is orchestral music...? Asking coz you mentioned something about not very compatible with virtual instruments..
Hey Sanjay. Do you think this is good to be used for worship in churches? Like live set up?
Hi, Can you please advise is I can play this without it being connected to the computer? Also can I transpose with this keyboard ?
I have an mpk mini and I only use it for the keys. I never use the arp on it
Great video! How long are faders?
How would you say the Alesis v25 keys, and pads feel compared to the m audio oxygen 25? Torn between the two, it’s for my iPad set up. Thanks in advance
How do you make the pads stay lit? I have the MkIV version and would like to have them lit all the time since my home studio is dimly lit...
Do we have faders controls just like the pro mini 25 in oxygen 25?
Kinda confused to buy this or that 😢
How do I factory rest this keyboard. Doesn’t play right and natural. Feels latency.
can we get all higher and lower notes from these 25 buttons?
Are the software included compatible with Mac ?

Nice review, good keyboards, but having few mini keys in ~100 range already, I'm thinking about Oxygen Pro 49 more and more.
Yes, Oxygen Pro is the way to go if its in your budget.
Hi I’m debating between the oxygen pro and the donner dmk 25 .. I do not make beats I’ve actually never purchased a mini , I play piano and was looking for something small to take with me for piano playing.. so I’m more interested in the keys and how they play .

Does Oxygen 61 keybed have the intial sticky sensation and noise issue like on keystation 88 and 61?

Would you review the icon ikeyboard 3x? I just can’t find a proper review of it in yt
How do you map the faders to specific MIDI CC data??
I don't want to become a professional pianist. I just want to make normal songs (rock, pop, electronic etc.). I had a 49 keys keyboard and felt limited. 88 keys looks too big for me. How much keys keyboard I should have? Is 88 keys worth for me, as I don't need it just for piano but for all other virtual instruments. Any idea?
I think 49 is a great size. You will rarely feel like you're running out of keys. And you can always use the octave up/down if you really need more.
