The M-Audio CODE 25 Black is the newest Audio addition to the CODE Series of MIDI keyboard controllers. With the addition of the 25 key model, the CODE Series Black now offers a trio of full-featured models. The CODE 25 combines high-quality performance with powerful production features, allowing you to make the most of your music editing software and MIDI equipment. The CODE Series offers a number of thoughtful design features that enable you to create and perform at your best. This keyboard does not get in the way of your musical ideas; rather, it serves as an extension of your creativity, allowing you to express your musicality with precision, clarity, and immediacy.

Assignable Controls

The CODE Series Black MIDI controllers include everything you need to get started making serious music. Multiple banks of faders, buttons, knobs, and pads make it simple to assign controllable parameters, and it also has a smooth-feeling pitch bend and modulation wheel. The X/Y Touchpad is the newest addition to the M-Audio controller line, providing additional interaction with effects and instrument plug-in parameters; this is the ideal control source for effects and instruments loaded into Ableton Live's Audio and MIDI channels.

Aside from these features, the keyboard can be divided into four assignable zones, increasing the flexibility and functionality of your setup. This allows you to trigger four different instruments on the keyboard, each in their own zone, or you can overlap zones and trigger two instruments at the same time.


Production Powerhouse

Every DAW employs keyboard shortcuts to perform standard functions such as cut, paste, and creating a new track. The CODE 25 Black's support for ASCII/HID keyboard shortcut commands allows you to map these frequently used shortcuts directly onto the keyboard controller itself, allowing you to streamline your workflow for a faster, more efficient, and far more satisfying production process. The CODE Series also supports Mackie Control/HUI control modes, allowing you to work with most DAWs right away with minimal setup.


Backlit RGB Drum Pads

The CODE 25 features 16 assignable, velocity sensitive, RGB backlit drum pads with colour indicating which function each pad is assigned to. The buttons, knobs, and faders are also colour coded, so you can tell which mode they are in. A LED display provides feedback in the form of on-screen displays of parameters and settings, giving you precise control over your music.


Exclusive Software Included

The CODE Series Black includes a comprehensive software package, Ableton Live Lite, as well as full versions of AIR Music Technology's award-winning virtual instruments Loom and Hybrid 3.0, giving you unrestricted access to world-class creative tools.
VIP software, as well as Akai and M-Audio's control software, are now included with the Code 25 Black. This plugin inserts into any DAW and allows you to control any VIP-enabled 3rd party instrument and effect directly from your keyboard. So you now have direct control over your software, which was previously controlled entirely within the software itself.

Ableton Live Lite contains the majority of the functionality of Ableton Live, a groundbreaking, multi-award winning music production software that allows you to compose, record, remix, and edit your musical ideas in a seamless audio/MIDI environment. Ableton Live combines your electronic, acoustic, and virtual instruments, as well as audio recordings and MIDI sequences, in a single interface with unrivalled usability.

The next generation of synthesis is Hybrid 3.0, a high definition virtual synthesiser that combines the coveted warmth of analogue synths with futuristic digital manipulation capabilities. As a result, you get the best of both worlds: a virtual instrument with a full set of precisely adjustable controls that can sound like a synth you've heard before or something completely new.

Loom is an award-winning modular additive synthesiser with a shape-shifting Morph Pad that makes creating rich, captivating sounds easier than ever. By allowing you to select and connect 30 editable modules, Loom takes a different modular approach to additive synthesis, a synthesis technique that combines simple waveforms together to create complex sounds. Make everything from ethereal pads to wobbles to ambient soundscapes and more. The Morph Pad breathes life into your Loom patches by morphing between user-defined variations of your patch, adding motion and momentum that evolves over time.
