Thank you for purchasing the X-Station controller keyboard and synthe-
sizer. The X-Station is a state of the art product, it turns any com-
puter into a complete, professional music & audio production
workstation with hardware synthesizer, audio & MIDI interface,
control surface and effects processor – all in one package with
USB, PSU or battery power!
When used with a computer running a MIDI / Audio sequencer package
it will provide a superb, compact recording setup.
It may be used to control sequencers, popular software virtual instru-
ments on a computer or traditional hardware instruments via either a
USB connection or a standard MIDI interface. In addition to the control
features it contains two audio pre-amplifiers together with a twin multi-
effects processor that allows the recording and replay of mono or
stereo audio signals to and from a computer.
The front panel provides a wealth of programmable controls arranged in
the format of a traditional synthesizer, each of which can be configured

tion where it can be used as a stand-alone synthesizer, MIDI controller
keyboard and recording device. Its comprehensive range of controls
may be used to dynamically alter any sound parameters precisely and
in real time whilst simultaneously recording and replaying stereo audio
data.

Synthesis Tutorial The KS Synthesizerand . For easy reference, the
section name is printed at the top of each page. An is alsoAppendix
provided containing reference data.
It is assumed that the reader already has a basic knowledge of MIDI in
order to configure user Templates. Those with limited MIDI experience
may find the MIDI Tutorial useful. Although very little MIDI knowledge is
required to use the the X-Station with the factory programmed
Templates.
It is recommended that this manual is read in sequence chapter by
chapter.
The main features of both its MIDI controller capability and Audio oper-
ation are listed below.
MIDI Controller Section Main Features
X-Station features a superb two, four or five octave semi-weighted
velocity-sensitive keyboard with combined Pitch bend and Modulation
joystick. The keyboard is transposable up or down across the entire
MIDI note range and can transmit Channel Aftertouch.
A programmable X/Y touch pad surface for simultaneous control of mul-
tiple parameters is provided.
MIDI or USB operation. USB and MIDI may be used simultaneously. A
MIDI OUT port, a MIDI IN Port, a Foot pedal input socket and a
Footswitch input socket are available.
Power can be supplied by the USB port, Batteries or a 9V DC adapter.
A virtual synthesizer control panel layout comprising 28 buttons, 16
pots, 3 encoders and 9 sliders are assignable to each template. There
is no need for template labels for control of most synthesizers
Any front panel control may be configured to transmit on any MIDI
channel, to any destination utilising the comprehensive MIDI specifica-
tion. Available options include Controller numbers, NRPNs, RPNS,
Bank Change, Program Change and definable System Exclusive
Strings. System Exclusive strings may be up to 20 bytes long. Control
data may be inserted anywhere within the System Exclusive message.
40 Template editable memories are available. Each Template contains
definitions for all front panel controls. Templates may be individually
named for easy reference and saved to/from an external sequencer via
MIDI Sysex bulk dumps
Audio Section Main Features
Two Novation high precision, low noise high bandwidth audio pre-ampli-
fiers with phantom power and over 70 dB headroom deliver a warm,
clear signal typical of Novation's commitment to sonic excellence.

Synthesizer Features
The X-Station includes a 3-oscillator virtual analog synthesizer model
based on the renowned Novation KS-series and is 8-voice polyphonic.
The extensive control interface provides instant access to most param-
eters, making sound creation fast and intuitive. The synthesizer is total-
ly integrated with computer recording setups: The stereo audio output is
sent straight through the USB cable onto the track into any ASIO-com-
patible sequencer.
There are 200 excellent factory sound programs which have been care-
fully crafted to cover most styles of music and programs can be easily
imported and exported into a sysex librarian.
INTRODUCTION
Using This Manual - Main Features - Conventions Used
• •2
Conventions Used In This Manual
The word ‘Template’ refers to a collection of knobs, encoders and but-
ton settings and the function of the footswitch, pedal and X-Y touchpad.
Each Template is numbered from 1 to 40 and can be saved in the X-
Station’s non-volatile memory.
The word ‘Template Label’ refers to a coloured or blank ‘overlay’ which
sits neatly in the synthesizer control panel area.
The word ‘Preset’ refers to a Template configured at the factory to
showcase some of the powerful control possibilities. Preset Templates
may be over-written by new settings.
The word ‘Control’ refers to any of the front panel knobs, assignable
buttons, encoders, footswitch, foot pedal, joystick or the X-Y touchpad.
Within a single Template. Each control may be individually configured
to transmit various types of MIDI information addressed on any combi-
nation of the MIDI OUT / USB ports.
The word ‘Setting’ refers to any parameter which is edited from within a
menu.
The word ‘Synth Patch’ refers to a synthesizer memory which is
accessed while the X-Station is operating in the synthesizer mode.
Text in CAPITALS refers to a front panel Control or legend (even
though the name of the Control may actually be in lower case on the
front panel). It could be a knob, button, slider or rotary encoder.
Connecting Up To Equipment
In order to record or replay Audio or MIDI data it will be necessary to
connect the X-Station to a desktop or laptop computer with the appro-
priate MIDI and Audio recoding software installed.
When connected to a computer, power will be supplied directly from the
USB cable connection and it will not usually be necessary to fit batter-
ies or plug into an external PSU.
Laptop Operation
When using a USB connection to power the X-Station from a Laptop
computer, the X-Station may not power up successfully. This is due to
the X-Station not being able to draw enough power from the Laptop
computer.
The X-station requires approx 350mA of power to operate dependent
on various conditions. Switching on the phantom power, turning up the
monitor volume in the headphones and charging the batteries will add
to the power consumption. Although the USB specification dictates that
all computers should be able to supply 500mA of current which is
ample, some Laptops are not able to supply as much as this.
The solution is to either :
1) Power the X-Station from the supplied AC:DC power adapter.
2) Insert Dry or rechargeable batteries (recommended) .
3) Connect the X-Station to a powered USB Hub.
The X-Station will run on all types of ‘C’ size dry or re-chargeable cells.
Nicad batteries are rechargeable and will last approx 6 hours.
Alkaline batteries are normal high power dry cells. They are not
rechargeable and will last approx 12 hours.
Duracell batteries are extra high power, long life dry cells. They are not
rechargeable and will last approx 24 hours.
The X-Station will automatically sense the battery type and calculate
charging rate depending on the condition of the battery.
Fitting Batteries
Turn the X-Station upside down and unclip the battery compartment
using two fingers to push on the clips. Observe the connection diagram
imprinted on the plastic casing for 6 x ‘C’ cells to the right of the battery
cover. Fit the cells as shown in the diagram.
Power Operation
The X-Station may be configured to charge or not charge the batteries
(if rechargeable's have been fitted) from either the USB port, the exter-
nal power supply or both. - See page 26 in the Global Menu Section for
details.
Stand Alone Operation
The X-Station may be used as a stand alone synthesizer, MIDI con-
troller and/or a stand alone 2 channel Audio Mixer / Pre-amp with
effects processors. In this case it is not necessary to connect to a com-
puter system.
STAND ALONE AUDIO SETUP
If powered loudspeakers are not available then the outputs must be
connected to an amplifier which in turn will power non active loudspeak-
ers. If batteries are fitted - See previous page, then it is not necessary
to use the external power supply.
Playing the Synthesizer
In stand alone operation the synthesizer may be used for live perform-
ance. To activate the synthesizer, press the PLAY / SYNTH button
STAND ALONE MIDI SETUP
External sound modules may be directly connected to the MIDI output
sockets. If batteries are fitted, then it is not necessary to use the exter-
nal power supply.
