Editing a sound - Saving a sound - Listening to the factory demonstration
Editing a sound
Once familiar with the sounds that are available, select Program number 499. This is a very basic synthesizer sound which can be used as a starting point to create a new, more interesting sound for your own use. When this sound is played from the keyboard, it will be noticed that the volume of the sound instantly reaches its maximum level when a key is pressed, and dies away instantaneously as soon as the key is released. The most useful editing controls on the K-Station are found on the front panel and some of these will be now be used to modify (edit) this basic program. While playing the keyboard, adjust the Amplifier Envelope SUSTAIN control. Notice how that the sound level when holding a key down changes. Set this control to just over half. Now adjust the RELEASE control. Notice how, when a key on the keyboard is released the sound will now gradually die away.

Exit Menu Mode either by pressing the MENUS button again or by pressing the PROGRAM button. (the LED above the MENUS button extinguish, indicating that the K-Station is no longer in Menu Mode). To save a Program to the same location Press the WRITE button. The display will now show the current Program number and the destination memory number where the Program is about to be saved to. In this example, Write to 499 ? Notice that the destination memory is always initially set to the currently selected Program�s number. Press the WRITE button again. Overwrite 499 ? will be displayed. It is possible to abandon the save procedure at any point by pressing the PROGRAM button. The K-Station will return to Program Select Mode without saving the Program to memory. To proceed with the saving procedure, finally press the WRITE button again. This saves the edited Program to memory and once the sound has been written, the K-Station will return to Program Select Mode. To save a Program in a different location Press the WRITE button. The display will now show the current Program number and the destination memory number where the Program is about to be saved to. In this example, Write to 499 ? Notice that the destination memory is always initially set to the currently selected Program�s number. The destination memory may now be selected by using the KEYPAD buttons, DATA knob or PAGE buttons in a similar manner as when selecting sounds in Program Select Mode. - In this example select 498

How quickly the sound dies away depends on the setting of this control. The sound is still a little too bright. Adjust the FREQUENCY control in the filter area. Notice how the sound becomes softer as the control is rotated anticlockwise. Continue to make adjustments until a desired sound is heard. The first small edit is now complete on the KStation! The edited sound must now be saved into a memory location if it is to be needed for the future.
Press the WRITE button again. Overwrite 498 ? will be displayed. It is possible to abandon the save procedure at any point by pressing the PROGRAM button. The K-Station will return to Program Select Mode without saving the Program to memory. To proceed with the saving procedure, finally press the WRITE button again. This saves the edited Program to memory and once the sound has been written, the K-Station will return to Program Select Mode. Using the Compare Function After editing a sound it may be useful to compare it to the originally stored program. To illustrate this, select Program 498 (if not already selected) and adjust the filter FREQUENCY control knob in the filter section until the sound is less bright. Press and hold down the COMPARE button. The sound being listened to will now be the originally stored program. Notice in this example how the sound is now bright again. Releasing the COMPARE button will switch to listening to the edited (less bright) sound again.
Saving a sound
Sounds may be saved in any memory location. However, it is recommended that the user locations (Banks 3 and 4, 300 - 499 ) are used early on for saving new sound creations. The factory preset sounds in Banks 1 and 2 may also be overwritten if desired. Once these factory presets are overwritten, they may only be retrieved by performing a factory restore - See Page 33 (A backup of the factory preset or user programs, either one by one or by bank may be made to an external MIDI sequencer - Also see Page 33). NOTE: When the K-Station is shipped from the factory, the global memory protect switch is set to on. The memory protect switch is a safety feature designed to prevent memories from being overwritten by accident. Therefore, in order to save a sound, the global memory protect must be switched off. If an attempt is made to save to a memory while the global memory protect is still switched on, the K-Station will display a brief warning message. No data will have been written to memory. Switching off Global Memory Protect Press the MENUS button. The LED above the MENUS button will now light, indicating that the K-Station is in Menu Mode. Select the Global Menu by pressing the �7� button on the 0 - 9 numeric keypad. If necessary, use the PAGE buttons (immediately to the left of the display window) to scroll up and down the pages within the menu until the display shows Mem Protect and its current setting (ON or OFF). Use the DATA knob to turn memory protect OFF. Note: To make permanent (held even when power is off)any changes to the K-Station�s global settings, See Page 35.
Listening to the factory demonstration
To complete this Quick Start Guide section, some time spent listening to the sounds that the K-Station is capable of producing will be of benefit when it comes to creating new sounds. Press the MENUS button - the LED above the button will light. Simultaneously press the both the keypad 1(osc�s) and 2(filter) buttons. The Factory demonstration will begin to play. Once the demonstration has finished, the K-Station will enter Program Select Mode. It is also possible to stop the demonstration at any time while it is playing by pressing the PROGRAM button to return immediately to Program Select Mode.
