Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Oxygen 8,part of the USB Keystation
series of MIDI controllers brought to you by M-Audio.You may use your Oxygen
8 in conjunction with a USB equipped PC or Macintosh computer and
appropriate music software to enter a full range of MIDInote and controller
information.You will be able to discover the wonderful world of Computer
Music with a set of complete musical instruments from your sound card,sound
modules, or workstation. The Oxygen 8 gives you full control over MIDI
parameters,while utilizing proven M-Audio USB MIDI interface technology.The
Oxygen 8 will also serve your needs as a standalone MIDI controller.
This manual will help you become familiar with the powerful features of the
Oxygen 8.After reading the manual carefully,you will have a clear understanding
of how to transmit different MIDI messages to other instruments and
equipment. For ease of use of MIDI implementation, we strongly recommend
that you have the manual at hand when you are using the keyboard,especially if
you are new to the world of MIDI.
Oxygen 8 Features
•The Oxygen 8 MIDI controller keyboard provides 25 dynamic keys,pitch and
mod wheels,a data slider,and 8 assignable rotary controllers.
•Connects easily to your computer’s USB port.No tools,and no disassembly
is required.When used with USB,the Oxygen 8 may be parasitically powered
by your computer’s USB port.
•The Oxygen 8 may also be used as a completely portable standalone
controller when powered by 6AA-size batteries.
•The Oxygen 8 provides two MIDI OUT jacks for connecting to MIDI devices
from either your computer, or as a standalone MIDI controller.
•There is also a socket for an optional sustain-footswitch.
•Although the Oxygen 8 has no built-in sound capabilities, it offers a great
variety of useful MIDI functions.
Oxygen 8 Overview
The Oxygen 8 is a fully functional MIDI controller. Its 25 keys can be set to play
any octave or transposed pitch,while the Oxygen 8’s pitch wheel,mod wheel and
data slider with the addition of eight programmable rotary knobs make it the most
versatile MIDI controller of its class.Its compact size and ability to run on battery
power make it the ultimate in portable keyboard controllers.Virtually any type of
MIDI controller information can be sent from the Oxygen 8 to your computer,
using the power and convenience of the Mac or PC computer’s USB port.
Additionally, the Oxygen 8 can operate as a “standalone” MIDI controller,
independent of the computer.The rear panel MIDI port marked “keyboard” is
used for this purpose.

Contained within the Oxygen 8 is a USB MIDI interface.Simply plug the Oxygen
8 into your computer’s USB port, install the included drivers and enable the
MIDI interface within your music software. This combination of a versatile
keyboard controller and a USB MIDI interface allows you record and control
MIDI information within your music application,plus adds a MIDI output port to
which you can connect a MIDI sound module or drum machine.The rear panel
MIDI port marked“USB” is used for this purpose.
The Oxygen 8 may be powered by one of three sources:external power supply,
internal batteries, or “parasitically” from the voltage it receives from the USB
port.For the most consistent perfomance,we recommend using a power supply
or batteries,even when using the Oxygen 8 with your computer’s USB port.To
power from the USB port only, plug the Oxygen 8 directly into the computer’s
USB port,or into a powered USB hub.When using the Oxygen 8 in standalone
mode, a power supply or batteries must be used. Six AA-size batteries are
required when using battery power. When using an external power supply
(optional), it is important to use only a supply with the proper 9vDC, 500ma
rating.These may be purchased locally or through MIDIMAN.
On a PC: You must be running Windows 98 or higher to properly use the
Oxygen 8.Also,your motherboard must support USB or you will need to install
a PCI to USB host adapter to provide the USB ports. It is possible for a
motherboard to support USB and yet not have the physical port connectors
installed. A simple USB back panel extender can be purchased at a computer
supply store and can be installed easily to provide USB port connectors.
On an Apple Computer: Your Apple must support USB with the built-in native
ports present. Standard iMac’s or G3/G4’s with USB ports will work just fine. A Mac
OS that supports USB will also be required.We recommend OS 9.2.2 or higher.We
cannot guarantee performance of device when using non-Apple USB ports.
IMPORTANT: For MacOS 9, an OMS MIDI driver is provided. You MUST have
a sequencer program that supports OMS, and have OMS properly installed
in order to use the Oxygen 8.
What’s in the Box
Included in your Oxygen 8,you should find:
1. Oxygen 8 USB Keystation MIDI Controller
2. One (1) standard USB cable

4. Owner’s manual and warranty card

Guide to Getting Started
Here’s an outline of steps to begin using your Oxygen 8 on either Mac or PC:
1. Attach the Oxygen 8 to your computer (see“Hardware Installation”).
2. Install the Driver (see“Software Installation”).
3. Hook your sound module to the Oxygen 8 (see“Setting UpYour MIDI Studio”).
4. Configure the Oxygen 8 in your application software (see “Using the
Oxygen 8 in yourApplication Software”).
Hardware Installation
Installing your Oxygen 8 means simply attaching it to your USB port using the
standard USB cable that is included. We recommend that you power down (turn
off) your computer for a first time installation. If you are using the Oxygen 8 in
USB mode,a power supply is not required—the computer’s USB port provides
the power to run the Oxygen 8. The “wall-wart” or battery supply is only
necessary for use in the standalone mode.However,when the Oxygen 8 receives
its power from the USB port, we recommend either plugging directly into the
computer’s USB port (not into the keyboard’s port or a powered USB hub.)
Find a good spot around your computer station to place the Oxygen 8. The USB
port on your computer is a small (1/8” x 3/8”), rectangular connector (A) and
is usually found in a group of two. The other end (B) of your USB cable is‘more
square’ (1/4” x 1/4”) in shape, and should fit easily into the USB connector on
your Oxygen 8. Take the (A) end of the USB cable and plug it into the USB port
on the back of your computer. Take the (B) end of the USB cable and plug it in
to the USB port on the back panel of the Oxygen 8.
Next,powerupyourcomputerand proceedto the nextsection,“SoftwareInstallation.”
Software Installation
MIDI application software communicates with devices such as the MIDI interface
contained within the Oxygen 8 via software known as “drivers.” This software
driver is a special,dedicated program that makes a MIDI interface accessible to an
application. On the included driver disk,M-Audio supplies the drivers that enable
you to use Oxygen 8 with either Windows, Mac OS9 or Mac OSX. Oxygen 8
drivers are supplied on the included dual format CD.
USB Driver Installation for Windows
This driver for the Oxygen 8 USB interface requires Windows 98 or higher.
Please make sure that Windows 98SE, ME, 2000 or XP is installed on your
