Configuration

Once you have finished installation you will need to configure your MIDI software to use the

Keystation 49 MK3. Please note that when you press a key on the keyboard, you will not hear

any sound. This is because pressing a key causes the keyboard to send out MIDI data. MIDI

data gives instructions on how a sound should play, but in order to actually hear that sound

you need to configure your music software to read the MIDI data being sent from the

Keystation and play the sound back accordingly. This setup will more than likely entail going

into an Options or Device Set-Up menu in your music software application and selecting the

appropriate device. The Keystation 49 MK3 should appear under the name “USB Audio

Device” for Windows 7, Windows 8, or as “Keystation 49 MK3” for other operating systems in

the MIDI devices section of your music software application. Please consult the manual that

came with your software for the proper setup procedure.

Features

Top Panel

1. Keyboard: Most of the white keys and black keys

on the Keystation are labeled with names. When

in the Advanced mode, pressing any of the

labeled keys will allow for special operations such

as adjusting the MIDI channel, transposing, and

sending program change messages.

2. Octave Buttons: If you press the octave “+”

button once, the LED above the octave “-” button

will turn off, indicating the keyboard’s octave is

now shifted up. If you press the octave “+” key

again, you will shift one more octave up, and so

on. It is possible to shift the keyboard up 4

octaves or down 4 octaves from 0 octave shift.

To shift the octave down, press the octave “-”

button and notice that the LED above the octave

“+” turns off. If only the LED above the octave “-” key is lit, the octave is shifted down

and, if only the LED above the octave “+” key is lit, the octave is shifted up. The octave

“+” and octave “-” LEDs will change color when moving up or down more than one

octave.

To return the octave shift to 0, press both the octave “+” and “-” keys together. Both

LEDs will light, indicating that the octave shift has returned to 0.

The Octave “+” and “-” buttons may be assigned to control one of seven possible MIDI

functions. (See Advanced Functions for more information.)

3. Volume Slider: The Volume Slider sends a MIDI message that controls the volume of the

notes you are playing. The Volume Slider can also be assigned to different effects such

as pan (balance), attack, reverb, chorus and many more. (See Advanced Functions for

more information.)

4. Pitch Bend Wheel: As the name indicates, the pitch bend wheel is primarily used to

bend the notes played on the keyboard up or down. This allows you to play phrases not

normally associated with keyboard playing, such as guitar-style riffs. Your sound source

determines how far you can bend the note. The usual setting is two semitones, but it can

be up to two octaves up or down.

5. Modulation Wheel: The modulation wheel is typically used for modulation of the sound

you are playing. This type of real-time controller was originally introduced on electronic

keyboard instruments to give the performer options such as adding vibrato, just like

players of acoustic instruments do. The modulation wheel is fully MIDI-assignable.

6. Advanced Button: The Advanced button is used to access all the advanced functions of

the keyboard.

When the Advanced button is pressed, the keyboard goes into “Edit Mode.” In Edit

Mode, the keys on the keyboard are used for selecting functions and entering data.

The LED above the Advanced button indicates whether or not Edit Mode is engaged. In

Edit Mode, the black keys on the keyboard are used for selecting functions, while the

white keys are used for data entry, channel selection, and DAW selection.

Your keyboard will exit out of Edit Mode as soon as a function is selected, or the

Advanced button, CANCEL or ENTER key is pressed (the LED above the Advanced

button will turn off). The keyboard can then be used to play notes again.

Note: Refer to the Advanced section for more information.

7. Directional Buttons: These buttons can use the MIDI, Mackie Control®or HUI®protocols

to control certain functions in software that support them. Please see the Directional

Buttons and Transport Buttons section of the Advanced Functions chapter for more

information.

8. Transport Buttons: These buttons can use the MIDI, Mackie Control or HUI®protocols

to control certain functions in software that support them. Please see the Directional

Buttons and Transport Buttons section of the Advanced Functions chapter for more

information.

Rear Panel

1. Kensington® Lock: Use this port to

attach a security cable to the unit.

2. USB Port: The USB port delivers power

to the keyboard and transmits MIDI data

when connected to a computer to trigger

a software synth or MIDI sequencer.

3. Sustain Pedal Input: This socket

accepts a momentary-contact foot pedal (sold separately). When pressed, this pedal will

sustain the sound you are playing without having to keep your fingers pressed down on

the keys.

NOTE: For realistic pedal action, check out the SP-2. The SP-2 is M-Audio's switchable

sustain pedal with the ability to connect to the Sustain Pedal input on Keystation 49 MK3.

NOTE: The polarity of the sustain pedal is determined by the keyboard upon startup.

When Keystation 49 MK3 is powering up, the sustain pedal is assumed to be in the "up"

(Off) position. It is important that the sustain pedal is not pressed during startup, otherwise

the pedal will reverse its operation, and notes will sustain when the pedal is not pressed.

NOTE: A foot pedal can be used for sustaining the sound that you are playing without

having to keep your hands on the keyboard (just like the sustain pedal on a piano).

You can plug a foot pedal of any polarity into the foot pedal input on your M-Audio

keyboard. The keyboard will automatically detect the correct polarity when powering up. If

you want to reverse the polarity, simply depress the pedal when you switch on your

keyboard.

4. On/Off Switch: Use this switch to power the device on or off.

Advanced Functions

In addition to setting an octave shift, the two OCTAVE “+” and “-” buttons discussed earlier in

the manual under the section “Octave Buttons” can also be used to control one of seven MIDI

functions.

The first 7 black keys are used to select the function of the octave buttons. Some of the

functions that these keys can be used for cannot send out a value less than 0. When used to

control these functions, both LEDs above the buttons will remain on, regardless of the current

setting of that function.

To select an alternate function:

1. Press the Advanced button, putting the keyboard into Edit Mode.

2. Press the black key that represents the function you want. With the exception of CC,

Edit Mode will finish as soon as you have selected the function and you will be able to

play notes again.

Octave Shift

Another method of shifting the Keystation octaves is with the use of the keys labeled “Octave

+” and “Octave -”. After the Advanced button has been pressed, placing the keyboard in Edit

Mode, pressing these keys will shift the keyboard’s pitch up or down one or more octaves

(one for each time pressed). The default octave shift designation is “0” and will be the octave

setting each time you power up the keyboard. The lights above the octave buttons indicate

that 0 octave shift is set when both are on.

To assign the “+” and “-” keys to control the octave:

1. Press the Advanced button to get the keyboard into Edit Mode.

2. Press the black key representing “OCTAVE”. Edit Mode will finish as soon as OCTAVE

has been pressed.

There is also a method of performing a quick octave change, which can be useful when using

the octave buttons to control another MIDI function. This is accomplished as follows:

1. Press the Advanced button to put the keyboard in Edit Mode.

2. Press the black key representing “OCTAVE +”, increasing the octave by 1 (you may

press it again to increase the octave by 2, and so on). Press the black key representing

“OCTAVE -”, decreasing the octave by 1 (you may press it again to decrease the octave

by 2, and so on). Press the black key representing "OCTAVE 0" to reset the octave shift

to 0.

3. When you have chosen your octave shift press “ENTER,” to select your Octave and

leave Edit Mode. Selecting Cancel or Advanced will cancel the selection, and exit from

Advanced mode.

Transposition

In some cases, it may be useful to reduce or increase the pitch by a number of semitones

rather than an entire octave. For example, if you are playing a song with a singer that is having

difficulty hitting the top notes, you may want to reduce the pitch by one or two semitones. This

is achieved using a MIDI function called “Transpose.”

Transpose works in the same way as Octave Shift, except the shift can be up to +/- 12

semitones. As with Octave Shift, there are two ways of transposing the keyboard. You can use

the Octave “+” and “-” buttons, or the black keys “TRANSPOSE -,” “TRANSPOSE 0” and

“TRANSPOSE +,” respectively.

To assign the Octave “+” and “-” buttons to transpose:

1. Press the Advanced button to engage Edit Mode.

2. Press the black key labeled “TRANSPOSE” (Eb2). (Edit Mode will disengage as soon as

“TRANSPOSE” has been pressed.)

3. Press the “+” key and you will hear the pitch of the note you play go up.

4. Press the “-” key to transpose the keyboard down a half-step.

5. Press both “+” and “-” together to return to no transposition change.
