Novation V-Station VSTi v1.41

When Novation launched the multi-award winning K-Station in 2002 it made an impact akin to lobbing a barracuda into a goldfish bowl. Musicians where mad for the phatt'ness, the flexibility and the cool sound shaping while reviewers oozed with praise. And history is about to repeat itself with the new V-Station Virtual Analog Synthesizer.

Plug-In for PC and Mac

The V-Station gets the same real 3 oscillator flexibility as the award winning K-Station, awesome liquid analog filters, 8-voice polyphony, rippin' simultaneous FX and the kind of phatt sounds only a genuine Novation synth can offer. It's got masses of sophistication, acres of program locations and the flexibility of integrating it with your favourite sequencer / disc-based
recording set-up.

Easy to use - Powerful in Operation

And getting the best from the new V-Station is easy. All the primary sound-shaping controls are there on the main screen, clear, concise and refreshingly simple. Recall a named factory preset, tweak it to get `your sound' and instantly save it in any of the 400 program locations. Need more? Just click and you'll find additional functions and controls on the other three screens.

The Ultimate K-Station / A-Station Partner

For ultimate flexibility, why not partner a V-Station with one of Novation's award-winning hardware synths? As sounds created in the V-station can be downloaded into the A or K-station and vice versa, harmonising your gigging / studio set-ups and building mega-sound libraries is snap.

Analog Modelled Oscillators

Three powerful Oscillators provide all the classic waveforms, including a sine wave for those sub-bass floor-shaking grooves. All Waveforms feature a "Double" facility which provides twin waveforms with no loss of polyphony. Oscillators may be set to Unison or Sync'd operation and can utilise FM for the generation of metallic or percussive timbres. A Noise Source is also included in the waveform engine.

Novation Warm Liquid Filters

Delivering the rich liquid sound of an analog filter. Selectable low-pass, 12dB or 24dB cut-off curves with resonance and overdrive make it easy to recreate anything from a distorted TB303 to tight, rounded bass patch.

Unlimited Multi-Timbral Parts

The V-Station delivers 8 voices for each instance that is used. Call up an instance of the V-Station and there are immediately a further 8 voices available with a new sound if desired. This ability to use multiple `instances' allows the V-Station to run as many multi-timbral parts as the power of the host computer will allow.

Integrated Effects on EACH Instance

Novation set the industry standard with the famed Supernova Synthesizer for providing a complete set of powerful effects on each part on the multi-timbral synthesizer. The V-Station adopts this sound structure which makes for 6 simultaneous effects per instance. The effects include a Distortion unit that adds edge for harder sounds, a synchronised stereo Chorus or Phaser for spatial effects and a Reverb that adds an extra dimension and realism. A synchronised Panner and the Delay engine complete the comprehensive lineup.

Arpeggiate, Tweak and Sync to the Beat

An arpeggiator with programmable speed, synchronisation and sweep range is available within each instance. Comprehensive synchronisation of time based effects can be easily implemented. For example the delay effect may be set to a quarter note repeat whilst another LFO (built in to the effects unit) can sweep the phaser every 2 bars. All parameters respond to MIDI controllers which can be recorded in realtime on a track on the selected sequencer. - Set up a few instances, hit a single key and trigger a wall of sound. All running Arpeggiators and LFOs can be individually synchronised to MIDI Clock in different time signatures.
