3.Track Buttons:

DirectLink Operation:

The left Track button (<) selects the previous Track in supported DAW applications. For example if Track 2 is currently selected, pressing this button will select Track 1 in the application.

The right Track button (>) selects the next Track in supported DAW applications. For example if Track 2 is currently selected, pressing this button will select Track 3 in the application.

These buttons also allow the selection of tracks outside the currently active bank of 8 sequencer tracks. For example, if track 8 is currently selected and the > track button is pressed, track 9 will be selected. The track sliders and their corresponding buttons will now control Tracks 9 - 16.

Standard Operation:

The left Track button sends MIDI CC 14, while the right Track button sends MIDI CC 15. These buttons are not re-assignable to other MIDI parameters. Use the recording program’s "MIDI Learn" function (if available) to assign these buttons to software functions as desired. Refer to the manual provided with your DAW software for more information about its MIDI Learn capabilities.

4.Octave / Transpose Buttons:

The Octave buttons are used to shift the keyboard up or down in one octave increments, to extend the range of playable notes. The Right button (>) shifts upward (note F3 becomes F4), while the Left button (<) shifts downward (note F3 becomes F2).

Transpose is the secondary function of these two buttons and can be accessed by pressing both buttons simultaneously. In this mode, pressing the Right button shifts the keyboard upward by one half-step (semi tone). As a result, note F3 becomes F#3. Pressing the Left button shifts the keyboard downward by one half-step (F3 becomes E3).

5. LED Screen:

All Oxygen Series keyboards feature a 3 digit LED display providing visual information regarding current operation, programing and controller status.
