Note: Text accompanying keyboard controls indicates secondary functions that can be accessed by
pressing Shift while using the control.
1. Keybed: This velocity-sensitive keybed is the primary method of sending Note On/Off MIDI data. In
addition to being velocity sensitive, the keybed also includes channel aftertouch, which means you can
affect the sound a virtual instrument plugin makes by varying how much pressure you apply on the key
after initially pressing the key.
Hold Shift and press keys C2–Bb3 to edit Chord Mode settings. See
Keyboard's Internal Functions
2. Octave Buttons: Press these buttons to adjust the pitch range of the keys up or down one octave.
Hold Shift and press these buttons to adjust the pitch range of the keys up or down one semitone. The
keyboard can be raised up to four octaves or lowered down to three octaves from its default octave
range and a total of twelve semitones from its default transposition.
To reset Oxygen Pro 49 to its default octave range and transposition (C2–C6 on the keybed), press the
Octave - and Octave + Buttons simultaneously.
3. Pitch Bend Wheel: Roll this wheel up and down from the center position to bend the pitch of the
keyboard while playing. The default range of the pitch-bend will vary between software synths. The
wheel is spring mounted and will return to the center position when released.
4. Modulation Wheel: Move this wheel to send continuous controller data—MIDI CC #01 (modulation), by
default.
5. DAW Button: Press this button to set Oxygen Pro 49 to operate
in DAW Mode. Press and hold the button to open the DAW Select
menu on the Display.
Hold Shift and press this button to edit and create your own
DAW preset. After editing the User DAW, press the button again
to Save your changes to the User DAW.

6. Preset Button: Press this button to set Oxygen Pro 49 to operate in Preset Mode. Press and hold the
button to open the Preset Select menu on the Display.
Hold Shift and press this button to edit a preset. After editing one of the presets, press the button again
to save your changes to the current Preset.
