Presets
A preset is a saved collection of assignments for your Oxygen Pro’s controls, channel settings,
keyboard zone settings, etc. You can store up to
16
Preset
presets in Oxygen Pro 25, 49 and
61’s internal memory, enabling you to use a dedicated preset for each virtual instrument, or
project/session.
Along with the included
DAW
presets you can store your own
DAW
preset in Oxygen Pro’s
internal memory, enabling you to create and use your own dedicated DAW preset for your
digital audio workstation (DAW).
We recommend registering your Oxygen Pro on
and downloading the
Oxygen
Pro Series Software Manager
.
In the
Software Manager
you'll have access to all of your included software as well as the
Oxygen Pro
Preset Editor
. The
Preset Editor
gives you a visual and intuitive way to edit the
various messages that Oxygen Pro's controls send to your computer without having to use the
hardware interface. The
Preset Editor
enables you to save and load custom presets from your
computer.

DAW and Preset Mode
Once you’ve set up your Oxygen Pro keyboard to work with your DAW, it’s time to set the
keyboard’s operation Mode, Preset or DAW. By choosing the operation Mode, you can quickly
switch between the Oxygen Pro controlling your DAW’s controls when DAW mode is active to
controlling a soft synth/Virtual Instrument when Preset mode is active.
These two operation Modes determine the function of the MIDI keyboard’s editable controls:
•
DAW:
In DAW Mode, the keyboard’s controls will be mapped to faders, buttons, knobs,
and in some cases pads in your DAW.
•
Preset:
In Preset Mode, the keyboard’s controls will be mapped to faders, buttons, knobs,
and pads in your selected Virtual Instrument. The keyboard’s editable controls can be set
to functions that you design yourself. A number of individual preset mappings can be
created and then saved to the keyboard’s internal memory for you to load at a later time.
