Amazon is now offering its best price yet on the M-Audio Oxygen Pro 25 at $129 shipped. Regularly $199, this is a solid $70 or 35% price drop you’ll also find matched at B&H right now – it still fetches the full $199 at Walmart. Today’s deal is $20 under our previous mention to deliver a new Amazon all-time low. A perfect option for Logic Pro users (or any other DAW for that matter), this model is centered around 25 semi-weighted keys with both velocity sensitivity and aftertouch in place. On the top control panel, it also carries 16 backlit RBG drum pads for tapping out beats or leveraging clip launching features in apps like Logic Pro and Ableton Live alongside a note repeater function and eight assignable MIDI controller knobs. Head below for more.
A more affordable and quite popular option in the 25-key category comes by way of the venerable AKAI MPK Mini MK3. Easily one of the best, while it doesn’t include the semi-weighted action, as many drum pads, or the roller wheel-style pitch bend many folks live and die by, it does deliver just about everything else you’ll find on the M-Audio for $93.
Just be sure to also check out the MPC Key 61 all-in-one production rig as well as our coverage of the latest MPK Mini Plus and the MPK Mini Play MK3 with an OLED display and onboard speaker.
And if you’re looking for a new machine to run your rig on, check out this deal on Apple’s latest M2 Mac mini as well as the 14-inch M1 Pro MacBook Pro while it’s at a new $1,250 all-time low.
