In Windows XP, the Oxygen MIDI ports will appear as
"USB Audio Device" if the optional drivers have not been

Please refer to Chapter 5 of this guide for instructions on how to install the Oxygen Series Drivers.
The Oxygen keyboard does not trigger sounds in my music software.
Most programs have a MIDI activity indicator that can be used to confirm whether MIDI data from the keyboard
is reaching the software. If the software is not receiving any MIDI data, be sure the controller is properly
installed and is selected as a MIDI input device within your software. Refer to the documentation for your DAW
software, to learn how to configure and select MIDI input devices.

If the MIDI activity display indicates that MIDI data is reaching your software, then you may not be hearing

I have connected a sustain pedal to my Oxygen keyboard, but its operation is reversed (i.e., the notes
sustain when the pedal isn’t pressed, but the notes stop sustaining once the pedal is pressed).

The polarity of the sustain pedal is determined by the keyboard upon startup. When the keyboard is powering
up, the sustain pedal is assumed to be in the

pressed down during startup, otherwise its operation may be reversed.
My virtual instrument software (or hardware MIDI module) always recalls the sound next to the
program change number that I have sent to it from my Oxygen keyboard. For example, if I send a
program change number 40 (Violin), my MIDI module or software loads sound number 41 (Viola).
program change number that I have sent to it from my Oxygen keyboard. For example, if I send a
program change number 40 (Violin), my MIDI module or software loads sound number 41 (Viola).
This behavior is normal. Some MIDI devices count their sound presets from 1-128 instead of 0-127. As a
result, there may be an offset of +/-1 between the program change number sent from the keyboard and the
recalled sound preset on your module.
