There are Presets for all of the Virtual Instruments included with your Oxygen Pro. For Virtual
Instruments that are not included with your Oxygen Pro, we suggest using MPC Beats as a
plugin wrapper in your favorite DAW, and the Oxygen Pro’s
MPC PI
preset. MPC Beats opens
as a plugin wrapper in all mainstream DAWs to merge the best of all DAW worlds. This gives
you the freedom to use MPC Beats as a soft synth/Virtual Instrument plugin wrapper, enabling
you to have all of your Oxygen Pro controls auto-mapped to your favorite soft synth/Virtual
Instrument plugin.
To download the included MPC Beats software, follow the instructions on the included
software download card.
