Title: M-Audio Oxygen8 driver
Post by: davorin on April 03, 2016, 02:50:02 AM
Went through the list of supproted Midi keyboards here and looked up on Ebay what's available from the list...

The M-Audio Oxygen8 is available, so as the KEystation 49e...but none of the modles are listed on the m-audio drivers page...

So where can those drivers be obtained?

Found it under "Legacy" (o;

Interesting though that Oxygen v2 lists no driver for OS 9...just XML files for host applications...

Well..don't have a Oxygen 8 (yet ;o)....just bought a MK-461C on Ebay today...where driver is also available there...

Final goal is to write a generic USB Midi driver....that's why I'm collecting drivers all over the place to disassemble them for study...

I would vote that people should upload DAW drivers here as well...as many legacy drivers can't be found anymore...

I have the drivers you are looking for.  I will upload them later when I am at home.
There was one driver that covered both the Oxygen8 and the Keystation line.

If you want to make a generic driver you could start with writing a class compliant driver and any new hardware that complies with the USB 1.1 MIDI standard would work.  If your interested here are the pieces you would need to write it.  This is all pretty well documented stuff.

Here's the link to the OMS SDK which you would need to make sure OMS knows about the device.

Then you hvae the USB Spec for midi (everything you should need to know to write a driver) This is in the attached midi10.pdf document.

And lastly the USB DDK from Apple for writing USB drivers. (usb_api_ref_v26.pdf attachment.)

Now if you meant like a global driver that has hardware specific parts for lots of drivers then collect lots of them and put them together.  Or create an installer that let's you pick the ones you want.

Thanks for links...
found them in legacy drivers at M-Audio
that actually reminded me
have some other old M-Audio gear
that needed OS9 drivers
including old Delta cards/racks
plus somehow lost track of this thread
since can't find list of own posts on forum
probably my own fault
plus heavy doses of "Wiggler" conditioning
you probably get what eye am sayin

there are many driver revisions from 2004 + 2005 + even 2006
so this cant possibly be the latest drivers

Let me clarify, I meant for OS9, any "Newer" CDs are either missing the OS9 drivers all together or are the same versions as the 2003 with respects to OS 9, later CDs have no newer Classic drivers
