Good, not great because...
RobSteijger 17.01.2023
After almost 2 years of using, although not on a daily basis, it's about time for a review.

Good:
- Nice keybed, nice pads, with adjustable sensitivity.
- A 5 DIN MIDI-out, so you can use the Pro 49 for controlling other MIDI-gear (I use it for my Minilogue, which has smaller en fewer keys), without a DAW.
- The software editor that enables you to programm all controllers (thus which CC they send), which can be handy for controlling other MIDI gear that lacks knobs, but...

Not so good (but this applies to 99% of all controller keyboards):
- No endless knobs. Why are there so many controllers without endless knobs? I've ordered the AKAI MPD 226 júst for its endless encoders (review following shortly - or well, within 2 years). If my Pro 49 had them I'd be sorted for the rest of my life.

I've only used my Pro 49 with MPC Beats, which required some mapping (the factory preset in MPC Beats didn't work, and this was not caused by the Pro 49), so I can't commend yet on it's compatibility/use with other DAWs.

Thanks to Thomann, again, for the great service: my Pro 49 came with a malfuctioning fader. All was solved.

Overall a good product
Keepiko 11.02.2021
I use my midi with FL studio, the integration is amazing. Easy to set up following the user guide. The keys feel solid. The only thing is the screen is too small and doesn't have many functions. Overall good buy for the price.

Review after 16 months of use
Vincent3492 08.06.2022
Pros
Semi weighted keys feel great
Addition of trigger pads are a nice touch
Built in arp works really well

Cons
Screen is woeful. Octave indicator is burned into it as I leave the keyboard on all the time. This became apparent after about 6 months.
Suffering from pitch drift, the reason I replaced my old oxygen 49 key. Really disappointed this is an issue again.

Would probably look at other brands in the future as m-audio controller keys are supposed to suffer from random pitch drift and has been known for quite some time based on some articles I read online. Had really high hopes for this controller and really enjoyed using it when it worked.

One of the if not the best in the price category.
ankvcs 30.03.2021
Great very funtioncal midi controller with corners cut for price but that does not affect performance.

The keybed (coming from piano) feels quite good given that it is a midi controller without fully weighted keys. For the price its keybed is the best I believe.

Only major con that is not as obvious as some knobs being not as nice as on 800EUR keyboards is the aftertouch- you have to press in quite hard and its really hard to manipulate it- it easily goes to the max and its hard to vary it.

Sehr starkes PLV!
brtn 28.12.2022
Das m-audio Oxygen Pro 49 ist ein top Einsteiger USB-MIDI Keyboard. Besonders mag ich die Handhabung und Funktion der einzelnen Knöpfe und Knobs, die sich nicht allzu hochwertig anfühlen, für den Preis allerdings absolut ausreichend sind. Alles in Allem kann man sehr zufrieden sein.

I love it!
Dreadmoonlizardqueen 03.04.2023
Works great and I managed to seamlessly integrate it into my Pro Tools 12 setup.
Note if you're using Pro Tools 12, when setting up in peripherals, you need to use MIDI In/out 3 and assign it as a HUI. This is something I had to look up on Youtube as there were no clear instructions for this in the user manual or on M-Audio's website.
A completely unnecessary function but one I like is that when not in use, it cycles an RGB display through the inbuilt lights.

My favorite Midi Controller.
giannid86 03.04.2024
This was a MAJOR step up from my previous midi controller. The keys feel super nice and the DAW compatibility was really great, even when I am using FL studio. It is a major steal for the price, currently recommending it to every musician I know.

Good key bed, no software support and outdated
Squisy 25.08.2024
This is a decent keyboard with probably one of the best key beds for it's price, for sure better than the Arturia Keylab Essential 49. The software and the options to tweak the device are limited and the last update was from 2022. Also it's quite annoying that the device will go in Vegas mode when not used, options to tweak this aren't there
