Overview

A limited edition USB MIDI controller that makes mobile composing a reality and more colorful.

M-Audio offers the compact Axiom 25 MIDI controller in an extremely limited, special red edition. But don't let the Axiom 25 keyboard's size fool you. This advanced 25-key USB mobile MIDI keyboard controller features both semi-weighted action and assignable aftertouch, plus 8 rubberized trigger pads that put drum programming and performance at your fingertips. Eight endless rotary encoder knobs on the M-Audio Axiom 25 puts synth parameters, virtual mixer controls, and more in your hands. Six assignable transport controls can command other MIDI parameters. Virtually everything is freely MIDI-assignable”and the backlit LCD screen makes programming easy and intuitive. The M-Audio Axiom 25 gives you 20 memory locations for on-board storage, plus free Enigma editor/librarian software to manage an unlimited number of setups via computer.


Get Into the Action
The Axiom 25, just like the rest of the Axiom series of mobile USB MIDI controllers has everything it takes to get the most from your MIDI software and hardware. Semi-weighted action complete with aftertouch gives you great feel and expression for both synth parts and pianistic passages. Eight rubberized trigger pads put your drums at your fingertips for programming with feel”or for easy fire samples and visual effects.

Total MIDI Control
Assign the 8 rotary encoders to mixer controls like panning and effects sends, or to any synth parameters you want to control. Map the 9 sliders to software mixer faders or drawbars on your virtual organ. Six buttons, pitch and mod wheels, and sustain and expression pedal jacks round out a tour de force of MIDI domination. Assigning controllers is simple, yet the Axiom 25 keyboard controller has the power to let you delve as deep as you want. Each controller can map to just about any applicable parameter in the MIDI spec, including independent channel addressing for each. The possibilities are limited only by your imagination.

Intuitive Front-Panel Programming
M-Audio Axiom MIDI controllers all feature a large backlit LCD screen for visual feedback. You'll also find 9 dedicated front-panel function buttons to easily access common operations like preset/program change or MIDI channel +/-, octave +/-, and transpose +/-. Use the Controller Mute button to prevent parameters from jumping when you change them, for example, then press Snapshot to transmit all current settings. Twenty non-volatile memory locations instantly save and recall your favorite presets. You can manage an entire preset library on your computer via SysEx dumps and the included Enigma software editor/librarian for PC and Mac.

Mobile Operation
The yellow Axiom 25 USB MIDI controller is extremely compact, lightweight, and powered directly from your computer's USB bus. It makes mobile composing on the move a total possibility.
