Preset Template Listing
Nord Lead 3 - Clavia
No Template label is required since the
panel layout suits the Nord Lead 3 for-
mat. A few controls listed in the table
shown on the right have different func-
tions to the front panel legends.
Oddity - G-Media
No template label is required since the
panel layout is suited to the Oddity.
Many of the controls do however have
different functions than the legends
indicate. They are arranged in a logical
order and the table opposite lists the
differences.
PPG WAVE 2V Steinberg
No template label is required since the
panel layout is suited to the PPG
Wave.The PPG uses specific con-
troller numbers so there is no need to
import a setup file. There are no pref-
erences to set up. The X-Station oper-
ating system only allows a button to
step though a range of values one
value at a time. This will be changed
in a forthcoming version of the Remote
OS. This will then allow the PPG
wave arpeggiator buttons to work in a
more efficient and user friendly way. In
the envelope section the Amp enve-
lope is termed Env 2 and the Mod
Envelope is termed env 1. Envelope 3
has only two parameters Attack and
Decay. Controls are listed in the table
as shown.
Pro 53 - Native Instruments
No template label is required
since the panel layout very
much suits the Pro 53
format.The controls within the
Pro 53 template need to be
assigned or 'learnt' to the Pro
53. There is a file within the Pro
53 folder on the X-Station driver
/ resource CD which can be
imported into the Pro 53 which
has all the necessary control
assignments. This is the X-
Station.txt file. Any control differ-
ences are shown in the table
opposite.

RB338 Propellerhead
No template label is required
since the panel layout suits
the RB338 format. Only a
limited set of controls are
available for MIDI control.
Controls listed in the table
shown have different func-
tions to the front panel leg-
ends. Selecting between
Synth 1 and Synth 2 is
accomplished by using the
grey select buttons, for exam-
ple in the Osc section the
Osc1/Osc2 button is used to
switch between the two synths.
Reactor - Native Instruments
Reactor is an open ended synthesizer
plug-in. Like many other Native
Instrument Instruments Reactor does
not have a default MIDI implementa-
tion. Instead, controls need to be
assigned or 'learnt' to Reactor. The
controls used in the Reactor template
cover the most useful controls that will
be needed to control a Reactor
ensemble and have been specifically
designed to work with the Subtractive
synth ensembles supplied as standard
with Reactor. There are a large num-
ber of controls that can be applied to a
Reactor ensemble. Not all available
controls will be applicable to some
Reactor ensembles.
It is very easy to learn a MIDI function
to a particular control by right clicking
on a control within Reactor and then
turning the appropriate control on the
Remote. Preference files have not
been included on the X-Station
Drivers/Resources CD because of the
open ended nature of Reactor. Instead it is suggested that users learn the
functions they require to the controls they want to use or introduce to a
Reactor model.
ReDrum - Propellerhead REASON
Use the supplied template label 'Drum' since the panel layout does not suit
the format of the ReDrum machine. Two electronic templates 'ReDrum 1'
and 'ReDrum 2' are used to control ReDrum. Use the DATA/VALUE encoder
to quickly switch between the two. The Mute and Solo buttons respond to
Note On/Off type messages and these are setup on the buttons above the
sliders. The top row of Nine rotary controls alter the Pitch of each Drum 1 - 9
in the first template and the Length in the second template. There are many
undefined controls and blanks areas are provided under these controls for
customisation as required. Consult the Reason documentation on using the
auto learn feature within Reason for defining controls.
SH32 - Roland
No Template label is required since
the panel layout suits the SH32
format. A few controls listed in the
table shown on the right have dif-
ferent functions to the front panel
legends. It is not possible to set
the Osc waveform by MIDI.
