Tell me what you think about the M-audio Ozone USB Audio and MIDI Controller for laptop recording/live playing. Is it a good choice for a $250 budget?
Thanks,
Paul

Dec 21, 2004 06:10 am I personally have the Radium49 and love it.
Dec 21, 2004 10:44 am Gots a link to that Radium there dB? Been a long time since I've played with any midi boards and the Ozone and Radium stuff seems to be pretty well heard of (or spoken of). Currently looking for a decent controller (without breaking the bank) myself...

Dec 21, 2004 10:53 am How's the key feel and the weighting? Specs don't seem to mention velocity sensitive keys, got 'em, and do they work well?

Dec 21, 2004 11:00 am they are full sized keys, velocity sensitive and all that, not weighted at all, typical synth feel.
Dec 21, 2004 11:02 am Too bad, traditional weightings hard to find in a lower priced controller, but I'm still hoping to find one! Sorry if I took over the thread there flakes, but it is related, and there's some info for ya! hehe

Dec 21, 2004 11:05 am If I want weighted keys I'll buy a piano, I like synth keys...but then, I'm a bass player...
Dec 21, 2004 11:09 am I was brought up playing the organ, went through 5 years of TKAM, so I was used to synth keys myself... Then I went and noodled around with a friends baby grand and... Well, drool cleanup was the topic of his next discussion with me...

Dec 26, 2004 02:29 am Waldo, M-Audio has I believe 2 controllers out now with weighted keys. One is a bit less expensive then the other. The spendy one, and its really not that spendy compared to say my Fatar/StudioLogic 88 key controller. Anyway, it has some great feature, I got to test drive one and was almost tempted to trade my Fatar in for one, but I have grown acustomed to it now and dont want to try and get used to another controller. But it was a very pleasant playing keyboard by all means. And the extra control's really were what tempted me.

Dec 26, 2004 06:45 am I'm not sure if noize is talking about this badboy - www.m-audio.com/products/...Pro88-main.html
But i have this and it is just like playing a pinao (to a point)! not to mention the almnost unlimited assigment of keys!
Get Santa to bung this one in your stocking!
Dec 26, 2004 07:15 am Wooo, yeah, hammer action is perfect, but it's certainly out of my price range... I'd have to save up a couple years for that bad boy...
Some day though, or maybe if I get lucky and pick up a better job ;)
