Product Information

Your transport controls, faders, knobs, and DAW shortcuts will now have messages mapped for Ableton Live Lite. The Yamaha MX49 is a solid release that stakes its claim on the ability for players to alternate the octaves on the keyboard, split, and layer. Players would find the keyboard very lightweight that it can be toppled over very easily with the lightest force.

If you are getting a "Code Redemption limit has been reached" error when trying to activate your plugins, there are a few things that might have happened during your installation. These are the most common Ilok authorization problems: When the Oxygen Pro is in Preset Mode, the keyboard’s editable controls can be set to functions that can be configured to control your virtual instruments. A number of individual preset mappings can be created and then saved to the keyboard’s internal memory for you to load on the fly! Build quality, judging from the Oxygen Pro 49 Ihad on test, is good. The chassis is all plastic but inspires confidence. It’s light but not too light, and doesn’t flex at all in normal use. All the controls are firmly mounted and smooth in operation, the buttons quite stiff and shallow, and the small OLED screen is clear, bright and crisp.” simply select the map and Auto-Mapping will take care of the rest. Unleash complete tactile control of your DAW with Note: On the Oxygen Pro Mini, and Oxygen Pro 25, press the Preset/DAW button when in DAW mode (button lit).Using the Encoder directly below the OLED screen (#8), scroll to “ P.T.” and then press the Encoder to select it. A cool feature is the multi-function drum pads. These allow you to warp arpeggios, roll beats, and launch clips in Ableton Live. The Novation 49 comes with Automap 4, which gives you instant mapping to things needing to be controlled. It also comes with expression and sustain pedal inputs. The Arturia Keylab MKIIis the new version of the Keylab essential, and it is making some considerable waves in the MIDI department. This controller feels a little bit cheaper and doesn’t come with any faders or drum pads. It comes with the traditional MIDI out and USB connections.

The feel of this key-bed is something many musicians are not huge fans of. This is mainly because this is meant to be an entry-level MIDI keyboard and not high-end. Entry-level controllers are suitable for being just that, entry-level. The Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S49 is highly recommendable for music producers, and rehearsal teams.
