got a thing i have its fucking simple, easy, works with anything i own one so any problems u just ask me.


this is the one i have, this is amazing for space its 25 keys

http://www.soundcontrol.co.uk/mod_1/pag ... .2.5-197-9

this ones the same but more keys (43 keys)

http://www.soundcontrol.co.uk/mod_1/pag ... 2.5-197-10

and this one has even more (61 keys)

http://www.soundcontrol.co.uk/mod_1/pag ... 2.5-197-32

they can control loads of things at one time, u can make loads of adjustments, its the cheapest controller i've seen that does the job so bloody well, i've had 0 troubles with it

prices for these start at 49 quid and end at 80 quid :wink:

Wow thanks cogz just what i was looking for!! i think i will buy the 25 key one

Due to having a bedroom studio seem like it will take up a comfortable amount of space.
:P

just hope it will work of vista , doesnt mention it, do you think it will?

Did you use the site just wondering how much the postage is ?



I will order tomorrow i think

Oxygen 8. Done.

the carrilion control 25 has it all, controller interfaces, octaive selections, volume, velocity, midi channels, mod wheel, pitch wheel, reverb depth everything, it is perfect for the pro or the just starting out, don't get confused with all the other stuff, it has "EVERYTHING" i need and i usually need alot.

its got 8 asignable knobs and is a beast of a control surface and the cheapest of its leauge, don't save up for any fancy shit made out of metal or wood, if your just having somthing in your room go for this its just great at everything midi !!



and ps i had an m-audio controller, once i eventually found a driver on the net after a few weeks of hunting, i dropped it once and it broke :? i wouldn't go with m-audio products

just because liam used the oxygen doesn't mean its fucking amazing, its only a controller, when it comes to controllers its best just to get the cheapest one that does it all :wink:


and if u look the only difference between oxygen and the control 25 is the oxygen has a play, pause, next track buttons, 50 more quid for that ? :roll:

I plugged my X-Session into my laptop without any drivers and it worked like a champ. I also travel with it all the time and hasn't busted yet.

Liam uses an Oxygen 8? I always thought he would get something more expensive. Must have been given to him.
