assigning different notes to keyboard

Hi, newbie here. Could anyone tell me how to go about assigning different notes to keys on a keyboard controller, please? eg, change middle c to f, change d to g. I see that you can reverse the keyboard from low to high (for lefties I suppose), so I'm sure this is possible, but I'm a musician not a clever person, and I have a fiendishly cunning plan that cannot fail. My controller is an Oxygen 8 if this is any help. Thanks, fil.

First off, forget note names and think in MIDI note numbers, or you'll get confused. Then it's just a matter of deciding which note numbers you want to affect and writing a data mapping containing each one.

Running Vista. Well, UAC on Vista, anyway, is meant to be a real pain. (I've yet to try getting MIDI Yoke installed on Win7 - it's meant to be worse... I keep getting to the point of setting it up and thinking "Oh, later...") -edit- I finally broke down and did it. The instructions are already here, in the MidiYoke Installer section. It's a lot easier than it sounds. http://www.midiox.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?board=MYInstall;action=displa y;num=1168918461 -/edit-
