The compact M-Audio® Axiom® 25
mobile controller combines all the production power and performance you
need to get the most from your music software and MIDI gear. More than
just a “data entry” controller, the Axiom 25 features piano-style,
semi-weighted keys for a musically satisfying playing experience—yet
it’s small enough to fit in a backpack. Large dynamic trigger pads make
it easy to program beats and trigger one-shot samples—while the encoder
knobs and buttons deliver complete real-time control over your software.
DirectLink mode provides easy, automatic access to common DAW
functions* including transport, mixer, track pan, and virtual instrument
parameters—no complicated setup required. The Axiom 25 controller even
features a sleek, angled top panel for easy viewing in any environment.
