    I'm using B4 with two M-Audio Oxygens but at the moment they both control the top manual and I can't get the 2nd oxygen to control the lower manual.
    On B4 I've assigned midi channel 1 to top manual, midi channel 2 to lower.
    Any else use an Oxygen? Can anyone give me an idiot's guide to getting this to work?

    I don't use M-Audio keyboards but you must set one of the keyboards to Midi channel 2.

    Thanks

    Thanks.

    Yes I got it to work.

    Is it right that while I can use two keyboards for upper and lower I can only use the drawbars, buttons etc. on one keyboard?

    Shame as both keyboards have drawbars.

    No. Drawbars are Midi specific as well. (I'm pretty sure) I use VB-3 and it works that way.

    I am not sure about the M-Audio keyboards but my Cakewalk A-PRO 800 has two midi out channels.

    Depending on the control map keys and controllers can be assigned to different outputs, and you can assign the midi channel for each.

    M-Audio may have a similar feature and your controllor data is probably outputting on channel one on both keyboard.

    You will find midi programming on the setup page in B4. One setting for each manual, pedals and controllers. There will only be one channel for the drawbars however, you can use the Enigma program to setup your keyboards to function the way you wish. Each drawbar has a CC assignment in B4 and can be found on that page. I hope this helps!
    Another suggestion would be to run two instances of B4 which are specifically designed for your upper and lower manuals.
