M-Audio Oxygen 49 MKV USB/MIDI Key Controller

Welcome to the brand-new Oxygen Series from M-Audio — the Oxygen (MKV). Designed for today’s producers and performers, this next-generation MIDI keyboard controller combines intuitive DAW control, expressive performance tools, and powerful creative features to make music production faster and more inspiring than ever. Whether you’re producing in the studio or performing live, the Oxygen 49 (MKV) gives you complete command of your sound.

Professional Producer Features
The Oxygen 49 (MKV) is packed with tools essential for creating modern music, including:

• Note Repeat – a beat-making essential for rhythmic precision.
• Full velocity sensitivity on keys and pads for dynamic expression.
• 8 assignable knobs for controlling effects and virtual instruments.
• 9 assignable faders for hands-on mixing and automation.

The Note Repeat function lets you hold down any of the 8 velocity-sensitive performance pads (across two pad banks) to trigger repeated patterns at selectable note divisions. Choose between Momentary and Latch modes to match your production or live performance style.

Built-In Arpeggiator
Add movement and energy to your music with the Oxygen 49’s built-in arpeggiator. With full control over Type, Octave, Gate, and Swing, the arpeggiator brings rhythmic flow to your melodies and chords. Sync it to your DAW’s tempo or the keyboard’s internal clock for perfect timing. Whether you’re crafting melodies, basslines, or evolving textures, this creative tool will inspire new musical ideas in seconds.

Smart Controls for Effortless Composition
Unlock your creative potential with Smart Chord and Smart Scale technology.

• Smart Chord Mode lets you play full chords with a single key press. Choose major or minor voicings—or create your own custom chord shapes—to generate rich harmonies instantly.
• Smart Scale Mode locks the keyboard to one of over 15 different scales, ensuring that every note fits perfectly within your chosen key.

With these intelligent features, writing chord progressions and melodies becomes intuitive and error-free—ideal for both beginners and seasoned producers.
