review, I thought it would be cool to take a look at some inexpensive options for DJ's looking to step foot into the production realm. M-Audio, which is apart of Numark's InMusic brands, has just released some affordable controller keyboards with great features to start users on their way to making music. The M-audio Oxygen Keyboards are very similar to other keyboard controller ranges on the market and they come in 61, 49, and 25-key versions but they all have an intuitive rubber pad section for drumming sounds as well. There's also other faders and knobs to control DAW functions when completing a recording. The Keyboards come bundled with lite versions of Expand2, Ableton, and SoniVox...
