M-Audio Code 25 USB MIDI Controller With X/Y Pad Black
M-Audio presents its CODE Series (Black) keyboard controllers, a pair of full-featured models, combining all of the production power and performance you need to get the most from your music software and MIDI gear. The CODE Series (Black) offers several thoughtful design touches that enable you to create and perform your best. A keyboard should not be an obstacle standing in the way of creativity. Instead, it should function as a direct extension of your thoughts ensuring that you convey musical ideas with immediacy, precision and clarity.
Assignable Controllers
CODE Series (Black) controllers are equipped with everything you need to produce some serious musical creations. Extensive assignable parameter control is a breeze with multiple banks of faders, knobs, buttons, pads and a smooth feeling pitch bend and modulation wheel. New to the line of M-Audio controllers is the X/Y Touchpad, which provides additional and direct interaction with effects and instrument plugin parameters across an X/Y axis – the ideal control source for effects and instruments loaded into Ableton Live’s Audio and MIDI channels.
In addition, the keyboards can be split into four assignable zones to maximize the flexibility and functionality of your setup. (ie: trigger four different instruments in their own separate zone, or overlap zones and trigger two instruments at the same time).

– 25 full-size, velocity-sensitive keys with aftertouch and four assignable zones for splits and layering.
– Fully assignable XY pad for HID control and a unique way for controlling multiple parameters in virtual instruments
– 16 fully assignable velocity-sensitive trigger pads for beat production, clip launching and more
