Say hello to M-Audio’s newest addition to the CODE Series of MIDI keyboard controllers, the CODE 25 Black. The introduction of the 25 key model means that the CODE Series Black now presents a trio of full-featured models. The CODE 25 combines high-quality performance with powerful production features allowing you to get the most out of your music editing software and MIDI gear. The CODE Series provides users with several thoughtful design features that allow you to create and perform at your best. This keyboard doesn’t stand in the way of your musical ideas it functions as an extension of your creativity and ensures you can convey your musicality with precision, clarity, and immediacy.

Excellent Playability

Every CODE Series (Black) keyboard, the 25, 49 and 61 key models, each come with an all new keybed with an action that feels clean and precise. The natural profile keys are velocity and pressure sensitive and grant maximum expressive capability.

Assignable Controls

The CODE Series Black MIDI controllers come equipped with everything you need to start producing some serious music. Multiple banks of faders, buttons, knobs and pads allow users to extensively assign controllable parameters with ease and also feature a smooth feeling pitch bend and modulation wheel. The newest feature to the line of M-Audio controllers is the X/Y Touchpad that provides additional interaction with effects and instrument plug-in parameters; this is the perfect control source for effects and instruments loaded into Ableton Lives’ Audio and MIDI channels.

In addition to all these features, the keyboard can be split into four assignable zones, maximising the flexibility and functionality of your setup. This lets you trigger four different instruments in their own zone on the keyboard, or you can overlap zones and trigger two instruments at once.

Production Powerhouse

Every DAW uses keyboard shortcuts to execute standard functions such as cut, paste and a new track. Thanks to support for ASCII/HID keyboard shortcut commands the CODE 25 Black lets you map these commonly used shortcuts right onto the keyboard controller itself, allowing you to streamline your workflow for a quicker, more efficient and far more satisfying production process. The CODE Series also supports Mackie Control/HUI control modes, meaning that you are ready to work with most DAWs straight out of the box with a minimal setup.

Backlit RGB Drum Pads

The CODE 25 has 16 assignable, velocity sensitive, RGB backlit drum pads that can indicate exactly which function any pad is assigned to via the colour. The buttons, knobs and faders are also colour coded allowing you to see what mode they are in. A LED display gives you feedback such as on-screen display of parameters and settings that give you precision control over your music.

Exclusive Software Included

The CODE Series Black includes a comprehensive software package, Ableton Live Lite and full versions of AIR Music Technology’s award-winning virtual instruments Loom and Hybrid 3.0, granting unrestricted access to world-class creative tools.

The Code 25 Black now comes with VIP software, Akai and M-Audio's revolutionary control software. This plugin inserts into any DAW and allows any VIP enabled 3rd party instrument and effect to be controlled within it directly from your keyboard. So you have hands-on control of your software which was all previously controlled within the software itself.

Ableton Live Lite delivers most of the functionality of Ableton Live, a revolutionary, multi-award winning music production software that lets you compose, record, remix and edit your musical ideas in a seamless audio/MIDI environment. Ableton Live brings your electronic, acoustic and virtual instruments, as well as audio recordings and MIDI sequences, together in a single interface with unparalleled ease of use.

Hybrid 3.0 is the next generation of synthesis, a high definition virtual synthesiser that combines the coveted warmth of analogue synths with futuristic digital manipulation capabilities. The result is the best of both worlds, a virtual instrument with a complete set of accurately adjustable controls that can sound like a synth you can remember or something no one has ever heard before.

Loom is an award-winning modular additive synthesizer that features a shape-shifting Morph Pad that makes it easier than ever to create rich, captivating sounds. Loom takes a different modular approach to additive synthesis, a synthesis technique that combines simple waveforms together to create complex sounds, by letting you select and connect 30 editable modules. Create anything from ethereal pads to wobbles to ambient soundscapes and so much more. The Morph Pad brings your Loom patches to life by morphing between user-defined variations of your patch, adding motion and momentum that continues to evolve.
