panel and these are listed in the table
opposite.
JP 8000 / JP8080 - Roland
No Template label is required since
the panel layout suits the JP8000 for-
mat. A few controls listed in the table
shown on the right have different func-
tions to the front panel legends. Use
the Oscillator Semitone and Detune
controls to access Control 1 & Control
2 for each Oscillator. Pitch envelope
Attack and Decay is available on
Envelope 3.
Kontakt - Native Instruments
No template label is required since the
panel layout suits the format for
Kontakt. Kontakt is a very powerful
sample plug-in. Like many other
Native Instrument Instruments Kontakt
does not have a default MIDI imple-
mentation. Instead, controls need to
be assigned or 'learnt' to Kontakt. The
controls used in the Kontakt template
cover the most useful controls that will
be needed to control a sampler. Each
has a unique MIDI continuous control
number within the Kontakt template to
help. The controls are shown in the
table opposite.
LIVE - Ableton
Use the ‘Sequencer / Mixer’ Template
label with LIVE. Ableton refers to it's
preferences file as 'template set'.
There is an Ableton Live template set
file called "template.als" within the X-
Station Ableton folder included on the
X-Station Drivers/Resources CD.
This needs to be copied to the
Ableton Live preferences program
folder directory but this will replace
the existing template file. Because of
this it is suggested that the existing
template.als file within Ableton is
renamed as templatebak.als so that it
can be restored if necessary. The
usual path to this folder will be
C:\Program Files\Ableton\Live
2.0.3\Preferences.
The Send controls 1 to 6 are not pre-
assigned in this template on purpose.
This allows these six controls to be
'learnt' to Live as and when needed to
a specific track or tracks send con-
trols. The Live learn feature is activat-
ed by pressing the button towards the
top right of the Live screen. This will
then turn all MIDI assignable controls
blue. Click on the control to be
assigned and then turn the appropriate control on the X-Station. Once the
control(s) have been learnt, the MIDI button should be clicked to disable the
learn mode. If needed a new template.als file can then be made by clicking
Options-Preferences-Defaults and then clicking the save button within the
Set - Save Template section of the pop up box.
Logic5 and Logic 6 - Emagic
Use the Template overlay titled
‘Sequencer/ Mixer’. Preferences will
need to be imported into Logic that are
included in the Logic folder on the X-
Station Driver/Resource CD.
Preference files are included for both
Logic Platinum 5 and Logic Platinum 6.
Only Logic Platinum can assign MIDI
commands to key commands hence
only Logic Platinum can utilize the
transport functions programmed into the Logic template. To load the prefer-
ences into Logic 5, click on the Options tab at the top of the Logic menu bar
and select 'key commands' from the drop down menu. Click on the Options
tab at the top of the Logic menu bar and select 'Import Key Commands' from
the drop down menu. To import preferences into Logic 6, click on the prefer-
ences tab under the Logic 6 menu bar and select key commands from the
drop down menu. Click on the options menu within the Key Commands win-
dow and choose import key commands.
Please note that the existing key commands will be replaced for the version
of Logic Platinum used.
For the sliders, pots and encoders to work with the audio mixer it will be
necessary use the default Logic arrangement.lso. This has MIDI channel
splitters that are linked to the audio sliders within the environment. This song
can be loaded into Logic Audio, Logic Gold and Logic Platinum versions 5
and above and can be saved as the autoload song. See the more detailed
.pdf file included on the ReMOTE Audio Driver/Resource CD for full details.
Malstrom - Propellerhead REASON
Use the supplied template label ‘Malstrom’. A few controls are set to ‘No
Control’. These may be customised as required. There are blank areas
beneath these controls to write specific control names as applicable.
Mixer 1 - 2 - Propellerhead REASON
Use the supplied template label ‘Sequencer/Mixer’ since the panel layout
does not suit the format of the Mixer. Two electronic templates ‘Mixer 1’ and
‘Mixer 2’ are used to control the Mixer. Use the DATA/VALUE encoder to
quickly switch between the two. Level and pan controls for Channels 1-8 are
available from ‘Mixer 1’ and 9-14 from ‘Mixer 2’. Undefined controls may be
programmed to suit individual taste.
Model E - Steinberg
No Template label is required since the
panel layout suits the Model E format.
A few controls listed in the table shown
on the right have different functions to
the front panel legends. The Model E
always uses specific controller num-
bers, so there is no need to import a
setup file. There are also no prefer-
ences to set up.
MS2000 - Korg
No Template label is required since the
panel layout suits the MS2000 format.
A few controls listed in the table shown
on the right have different functions to
the front panel legends.
Unlike most of the others templates,
this template uses SYSEX messages
to control the various functions of the MS2000 rack or keyboard.
NN19 - NN-XT - Dr:Rex Sampler - Propellerhead REASON
No template label is required since the panel layout suits the REASON
Samplers format. This electronic template is suitable for control of the three
sampler instruments in the Reason Rack; The NN-19, Dr:Rex and the NN-
XT. Controls listed in the table
shown on the right have differ-
ent functions to the front panel
legends. Controls displaying
‘No Control’ have no MIDI
external control for that instru-
ment. If additional controls are
required, assign an unused
controller number to a control
and use the ‘Learn’ feature
within Reason.
