The M-Audio O2 follows in the footsteps of the Oxygen8?the mobile USB MIDI controller that started it all. Small enough to fit in a bag along with your laptop, the slim-line M-Audio O2 is perfect for throwing down bass lines, programming drum patterns, triggering effects and tweaking virtual studio parameters ? anywhere, anytime. You get 25 full-size, half-action, velocity-sensitive keys, along with eight fully assignable knobs, eight fully assignable buttons and other real-time control features for performance and programming. One simple USB connection serves as both a MIDI interface and bus power source. Class compliancy with Windows XP and Mac OS X means that you can get down to business without even installing any drivers. 25 full-size, half-action, velocity-sensitive keys class-compliant in Windows XP and Mac OS X built-in 16 channel MIDI interface 8 fully assignable MIDI controller knobs 8 fully assignable buttons assignable volume slider modulation and pitch bend controls +/- octave buttons (+/- 4 octaves) sustain pedal input powered via USB or 9VDC adapter 3-digit LED screen Snapshot and Controller Mute buttons MIDI Out port USB port on/off switch Kensington Lock hole integrates with Enigma editor/librarian for unlimited memory storage.

Great little midi controller

2006-12-02
I bought this midi controller mainly for playing with virtual synthesizers, but the uses for it are hardly limited to that. It works great so far, just plug it in and that's pretty much it depending on the program. It is very light and slim, which makes it very portable. From the research I've done, this seems to be the new model to replace the Oxygen8, which is very similar but lacks the 8 programmable buttons and is slightly heavier. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is starting to get into music production with programs like Reason, Fruity Loops, etc or for anyone looking for a good little midi controller. For this price you can't beat the quality and functionality.

Wasn't as Advertised.

I ordered this expecting a usb midi KEYBOARD. What I got was a Mic PreAmp. This is false advertisement. I ordered this because of the image up there is a KEYBOARD not a box with knobs and plug ins for for a microphone. WTF. I'm returning this and expect a full refund.

Cheap and effective

The title says it all. It works great and is inexpensive. Small and light makes for really easy portability.

This Thing Kicks Axe

2007-04-19
This very-easy-to-use MIDI controller plugs into the USB port, that's it, that's all you have to do. You get a great touch-sensitive keyboard with weighted keys and tons of assignable MIDI parameters. An extensive manual ships with it (on CD-ROM) along with a half-size "quick start" guide. Now I'll admit I haven't figured out all of the MIDI programmable features yet, but only because I've been having so much fun playing with the basic plug-and-play keyboard. This thing rocks!!!

Confusing

2007-03-25
Basically, the O2 comes with very few instructions, and you have to go on the internet to find any manuals and so on. Even with the online help, it is very confusing and I have not been able to get it to work at all. The instructions you do get assume that you have used other MIDI devices in the past and so that just getting a hint written in computer jargon is enough.
