Guest snusnu Posted October 8, 2002 Share Posted October 8, 2002 OK, it seems that Oxygen 8 is the only keyboard out there with midi knobs... yet only 8 knobs seem WAY too little... is there somehting out there with more knobs? I gather that one would need at LEAST about 15 -20!! Or can one get along just fine with 8? SMI²LE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Slidingtrancer Posted October 8, 2002 Share Posted October 8, 2002 The MK249-C from Evolution has 12 knobs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Psylent Buddhi Posted October 8, 2002 Share Posted October 8, 2002 Dude, unless you're running high-end programs don't bother getting more knobs... 8 is usually enough for one or two programs. The bad thing about the Oxygen 8 is the fact that it only has 25 keys... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest coriolis Posted October 18, 2002 Share Posted October 18, 2002 a benefit to the oxy8 is that you can quickly switch between 5 sets of knob assignments. in other words, the eight knobs can control 40 midi controllers, you just have to page up/down through the 5 assignment settings. i have one and its great because it sits right on my desk just behind my computer keyboard, no need to turn to my side to fiddle with my patches. for $150, its a hard to beat deal. but yes, the 25 key keyboard definately gets restrictive for letting loose on all those badass synth patches.

Guest coriolis Posted October 18, 2002 Share Posted October 18, 2002 one more thing - in addition to the 8 knobs, you have pitch wheel, mod wheel, and value slider. the mod wheel and value slider also modulate controllers so you have 10 controllers at your fingertips. the value slider can be assigned to any controller like the knobs.
