This is the latest version of M-Audio's flagship line of MIDI keyboard controllers. The Axiom 25 MK2 features 25 piano-style semi-weighted keys with aftertouch, 8 dynamic pads for intuitive beat programming, and an angled top panel with backlit LCD display for easy viewing in any environment. There are also 8 knobs, 1 slider, 9 buttons and more, all managed with DirectLink mode that provides instant DAW mapping for the ultimate command over your production software. There is also a version of Ignite music software included that will quickly capture, combine, and arrange musical ideas.
DirectLink: Streamlined Session Control
The updated Axiom series features DirectLink, which automatically maps the onboard controls to common parameters in DAWs like Pro Tools, Logic, Cubase, Live, and Reason. Take control of your software studio”directly from the keyboard. Use the fader and encoder knobs to fine-tune the mix. Easily navigate through sessions using the Transport buttons. Interfacing a MIDI controller with your software doesn™t get any easier than this.
Serious Production Power
When inspiration strikes, you need a keyboard controller that can translate ideas into killer tracks. That™s why Axiom 25 is equipped with an ultra-expressive semi-weighted keyboard and eight Trigger Finger pads for programming beats with incredible feel. Automatically map Axiom 25 to your DAW with DirectLink”or delve deeper by assigning the pads, encoders, and fader to whatever controls you wish. Each controller can map to just about any MIDI message available, along with independent channel addressing for each. The possibilities are as endless as your imagination.
Axiom Instrument Mode
With other MIDI keyboards, assigning controls to virtual instruments has never been easy. Now thanks to the Axiom 25 controller™s new Instrument mode, a single button instantly maps the fader, buttons, and encoders to any virtual instrument inside your DirectLink-compatible host*. You get direct access to synthesis parameters such as filter cutoff, LFO rate, and envelope settings”without having to manually configure anything. It™s almost like turning Axiom 25 into a dedicated hardware synth.
Intuitive Design
Whether you'e on stage or in the studio, your keyboard controller should fuel your creativity”providing all the right information and controls at your fingertips. That™s why we designed Axiom 25 with a sleek angled top panel for easier viewing of the display and improved ergonomics. Smooth rotary encoders deliver precise, continuously variable parameter changes, giving you a hands-on feel for the mix. The backlit LCD screen provides informative feedback from DAW hosts, including on-screen display of parameters, settings, and track names. It all adds up to intuitive control over your MIDI software and hardware.
Mobile Operation
The Axiom series is extremely compact and lightweight and all models are powered directly from your computer™s USB bus. Choose the size that™s best for your needs, then take your music anywhere you want to go.
