Oxygen Pro Mini & Reaper 'Out of the Box'

The Oxygen Pro Mini works great with Reaper right out of the box. You just have to do a few setup steps. M-Audio has documentation on its website for how to setup the Oxygen Pro Mini with several different DAWs. But, even though the Oxygen Pro Mini is pre-programmed to work with Reaper, documentation for Reaper setup isn’t provided by M-Audio. This video will get you going!

Best robot voice video ever
I usually immediately click off videos with the text to speech, but this was good and informative

I was just about ready to throw my Oxygen Pro 49 out of the window and I found this video via the Reaper forum. Thank you! The M-Audio documention is useless.

Thank you SO much, I've had my Oxygen Pro Mini for 2 years approximately and never quite understood how to adjust this to my liking, you made it so clear.
I have faders and knobs for CC values, pad bank 1 changes program value which triggers different articulations in my orchestral template (using it with Reaticulate); arpeggiator tempo sync now actually works as do the transport buttons.

I am just returning my Arturia Keylab Essential 49 due to not working as well as i had hoped in Reaper. I think the 49 key Oxygen pro may be my next option

Can you set Reaper's tempo via Oxygen Pro (e.g. tap tempo button) when keyboard is set to external clock.

Thank you

[KaiLabs]

Nice vid! There is one interface element missing though. If you are in one of the modes the keyboard does not give you a visual feedback if the mode (e.g. "solo") is active or not. The silk screen buttons are able to show this through their LEDs either on or off. In Ableton Live this works really nice. But in Reaper I can't see a way to get this visual feedback to work. 🤷‍♂Did you find a solution?

Hi I have Reaper v 7.27 and oxygen pro 62, I followed your instructions but the last part of setup control/osc/ web I select Mackie universal and select oxygen pro 61, then get a error message ... The following midi inputs could not be opened oxygen pro 61. Any advice please

[LuizigenEddy]

How out of the box does it work?
I have the 61 version.
"some' of the control version al do the same thing.
Some keys also do something in reaper.
But nothing actualy works out of the box.
Am I missing something not shown in the video?

How do I connect it with another controller to work in dual mode since the MIDI Out port is different from the traditional one? Greetings!

[davidpinkowski]

So, I followed your instructions EXACTLY. Every thing works great, until it doesn't. While switching banks to control various tracks, all of a sudden, the same bank settings control different tracks. Do you think I got a faulty unit. I really want to love this thing, but the bugs, bug me. THANKS

note repeat doesnt work in repear, any tips to get it working?

[onetmaster]

I can't get 'out of the box' keys to work under Linux, with the newest reaper. Any hints? ;)

[RichardThomas-spiy]

[questtheinfinite]
