M-Audio Oxygen Pro 49 – Professional MIDI Controller for Modern Music Creation

The M-Audio Oxygen Pro 49 is a powerful 49-key USB MIDI controller designed for ultimate control, creativity, and performance in both studio and live environments. Featuring Smart Chord, Smart Scale, an integrated arpeggiator, and automatic DAW mapping, this controller makes music creation faster, easier, and more inspiring than ever. Whether you’re producing, composing, or performing live, the Oxygen Pro 49 provides the flexibility and precision to bring your musical ideas to life.

Product Features

Engineered for today’s producers and musicians, the Oxygen Pro 49 combines expressive playability with full creative control. Its semi-weighted keys with aftertouch, 16 velocity-sensitive RGB pads, 8 assignable knobs, 9 faders, and transport buttons give you complete command over your virtual instruments, plug-ins, and DAW workflow. It’s a perfect combination of performance, versatility, and hands-on control.

Create Music Without Limits

With Smart Chord and Smart Scale functions, making music has never been easier. Smart Chord lets you play entire chords with a single key, while Smart Scale limits the playable notes to the chosen scale — ensuring you never hit a wrong note. Choose from 16 scale variations to unlock creative possibilities and stay focused on the flow of your music.

Seamless DAW Integration

The Oxygen Pro 49 automatically maps to popular DAWs such as Ableton Live, Logic Pro, Cubase, Pro Tools, MPC Beats, and Studio One. Once your DAW is selected, all controls instantly sync — including transport, mixer faders, pan, mute, and solo. It also integrates perfectly with included AIR Music Tech plugins, providing full real-time control of your virtual instruments.

Professional Production Tools

The built-in arpeggiator and Note Repeat features open new creative possibilities for producers and performers. The arpeggiator automatically sequences your played notes, while Note Repeat allows rhythmic pad repetitions — perfect for precise drum programming and live looping. Both functions can be used in Momentary or Latch mode for maximum flexibility.

High-Quality Keyboard Feel

The M-Audio PrecisionTouch key bed combines semi-weighted keys with high-speed scanning technology for a natural, responsive playing experience. Channel Aftertouch provides expressive modulation based on key pressure, letting you add emotion and nuance to your performance in real time — ideal for both pianists and electronic musicians.

Build and Design

Compact yet durable, the Oxygen Pro 49 is built to perform anywhere. Its clear OLED display offers quick access to parameters, while the ergonomic layout ensures comfortable use during long studio sessions or live gigs. The lightweight chassis makes it easy to transport without compromising quality.

Applications

Perfect for studio producers, live performers, and composers, the Oxygen Pro 49 integrates seamlessly with any setup. It works flawlessly with virtual instruments such as AIR Hybrid 3, Velvet, Mini Grand, TubeSynth, Electric, and Bassline — allowing you to control your sound directly from the hardware.
