USB Keystation 49 Manual

version: KS49-051501

Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the USB KEYSTATION 49 Direct Connect

MIDI Controller brought to you by Midiman. When using your KEYSTATION

in conjunction with a USB equipped PC or Macintosh computer and appropriate

music software, you will be able to discover the wonderful world of Computer

Music with a set of complete musical instruments from your sound card, sound

modules, or workstation. The USB KEYSTATION 49 gives you full control over

MIDI parameters, while utilizing proven Midiman USB MIDI interface

technology.

This manual is written to help you become familiar with the powerful features of

the KEYSTATION. After reading the manual carefully, you will have a clear

understanding of how to transmit different MIDI messages to other instruments

and equipment. For ease of use of MIDI implementation, we strongly

recommend that you have the manual at hand when you are using the keyboard,

especially if you are new to the world of MIDI.

Features

•The KEYSTATION 49 USB Direct Connect MIDI Controller keyboard

provides 49 dynamic keys.

•KEYSTATION uses a 9V DC “wall wart” adapter, yet can also use 6

C size batteries for portability.

•Connects easily to your computer’s USB port. No tools, and no

disassembly is required. When used with USB, the KEYSTATION

may be parasitically powered by your computer’s USB port.

•The KEYSTATION provides two MIDI OUT jacks for connecting to

MIDI devices from either your computer, or as a standalone MIDI

controller.

•There is also a socket for an optional sustain-footswitch.

•Although the KEYSTATION has no built-in sound capabilities, it

offers a great variety of useful MIDI functions.

KEYSTATION Overview

The USB KEYSTATION 49 is a fully functional MIDI controller. Its 49 keys can

be set to play any octave, while its compact size and ability to run on battery power

make it the ultimate in portable keyboard controllers. Virtually any type of MIDI

controller information can be sent from the KEYSTATION to your computer, using

the power and convenience of the Mac or PC computer’s USB port. Additionally,

the KEYSTATION can operate as a “standalone” MIDI controller, independent of

the computer. The rear panel MIDI port marked “keyboard” is used for this

purpose.

Contained within the KEYSTATION is a USB MIDI interface. Simply plug the

KEYSTATION into your computer’s USB port, install the included drivers and

enable the MIDI interface within your music software. This combination of a

versatile keyboard controller and a USB MIDI interface allows you record and

control MIDI information within your music application, plus adds a MIDI

output port to which you can connect a MIDI sound module or drum machine.

The rear panel MIDI port marked “USB” is used for this purpose.

The KEYSTATION may be powered by one of three sources: 9vDC (included),

batteries, or it may be powered “parasitically” from the voltage it receives from

the USB port. For the most consistent perfromance, we recommend using the

power supply or powering the unit with the 6 C size batteries when using the

KEYSTATION in conjunction with your computer’s USB port. To power only

from the USB port, plug the KEYSTATION directly into the USB port on the

computer or into a powered USB hub. When using the KEYSTATION in stand

alone mode, power must be applied to the unit from the power supply or using

batteries.

On a PC: You must be running Windows 98 to properly use the KEYSTATION.

Also, your motherboard must support USB or you will need to install a PCI to

USB host adapter to provide the USB ports. It is possible for a motherboard to

support USB and yet not have the physical port connectors installed. A simple

USB back panel extender can be purchased at a computer supply store and can

be installed easily to provide USB port connectors.

On an Apple Computer: Your Apple must support USB with the physical ports

present. Standard iMac’s or G3/G4’s with USB ports will work just fine. If you

choose to use a PCI to USB card for the Mac, then a Mac OS that supports USB

will also be required, i.e. OS 8.6 or higher.

IMPORTANT: For the Mac an OMS MIDI driver is provided. You

MUST have a sequencer that supports OMS, and have OMS

properly installed in order to use the KEYSTATION.

What’s in the Box

Included in your KEYSTATION, you should find:

1. This manual.

2. PC and Mac driver disk.

3. The KEYSTATION 49 USB Direct Connect MIDI Controller.

4. One (1) standard USB cable.

5. One (1) 9v DC 500mA “wall-wart” power supply. Use only this power supply

or one of equal value with your KEYSTATION.

Guide to Getting Started

Here is an outline of the steps needed to begin using your KEYSTATION on

either a Mac or a PC:

1. Attach the KEYSTATION to your computer (see “Hardware Installation”).

2. Install the Driver (see “Software Installation”).

3. Hook your sound module to the KEYSTATION (see “Setting Up Your MIDI

Studio”).

4. Configure the KEYSTATION in your application software (see “Using the

KEYSTATION in your Application Software”).

Hardware Installation

Installing your KEYSTATION involves simply attaching it to your USB port

using the standard USB cable that is included. We recommend that you power

down (turn off) your computer for a first time installation. If you are using the

KEYSTATION in USB mode the power supply is not required. The computer’s

USB port provides the power to run the KEYSTATION. The wall-wart” or

battery supply is only necessary for use in the standalone mode. However, when

the KEYSTATION receives its power from the USB port, we recommend either

plugging directly into the computer’s USB port (not the keyboard’s port), or into

a powered USB hub.

Find a good spot around your computer station to place the KEYSTATION. The

USB port on your computer is a small (1/8” x 3/8”), rectangular connector (A)

and is usually found in a group of two. The other end (B) of your USB cable is

‘more square’ (1/4” x 1/4”) in shape, and should fit easily into the USB connector

on your KEYSTATION. Next, power up your computer and proceed to the next

section, “Software Installation.”

Take the (A) end of the USB cable and plug it into the USB port on the back of

your computer. Take the (B) end of the USB cable and plug it in to the USB port

on the back panel of the KEYSTATION.

Software Installation

MIDI application software communicates with devices such as the MIDI

interface contained within the KEYSTATION via software known as “drivers.”

This software driver is a special, dedicated program that makes a MIDI interface

accessible to an application. On the included driver disk, Midiman supplies the

drivers that enable you to use KEYSTATION with either Windows or Opcode’s

OMS for Mac users. Both KEYSTATION drivers are supplied on the included

dual format CD.

USB Driver Installation on the PC

This driver for the KEYSTATION USB interface requires Windows 98 or higher.

Please make sure that Windows 98, ME, or 2000 is installed on your system, and that

your USB port is enabled. Check your computer manual for more information.

1. Boot Windows with the KEYSTATION (powered on) connected, or connect it

after Windows has been booted.

2. When the Add New Hardware Wizard reports that it detected an Unknown

Device, click “Next.”

3. On the next screen select the “Search for the best driver for your device” item

& click “Next”.

4. Indicate to Windows where to look for the driver installation files. Select

“Choose Path,” then type in (or browse until you locate) [your CD ROM drive

letter]:\KEYSTATION\USB. In most cases this will be

d:\KEYSTATION\USB, but your CD drive may be a different drive letter.

5. On the next screen, Windows will indicate it has searched for the driver files

for the “Midiman USB KEYSTATION Loader” and is now ready to install the

driver. Click the “Next” button to continue.

6. Windows will copy files and then indicate it has finished installing the

software that your new hardware device requires. Click the “Finish” button.

7. Next you will see Windows indicate that it has found another Unknown

Device & then see it automatically install the software for the “Midiman USB

KEYSTATION Midi Driver”.

Hold on, we’re not done yet.

8. The Add New Hardware Wizard will once again report it has detected an

Unknown Device, click “Next”.

9. On the next screen select the “Search for the best driver for your device.” item

& click “Next”.

10. Indicate to Windows where to look for the driver installation files (this should

be the exact same place you had Windows look for the previous software), the

click the “Next” button.

11. On the next screen, Windows will indicate it has searched for the driver files

for the “Midiman USB KEYSTATION Midi Driver” and is now ready to install

the driver. Click the “Next” button to continue.

12. Windows will copy files and then once again indicate it has finished installing the

software that your new hardware device requires. Click the “Finish” button.

The software drivers are now all loaded and functional. If you look in the Device

Manager, you will find 2 parts for the KEYSTATION driver; one under the

“Universal Serial Bus” controller group and the other under the “Sound, video,

& game controllers” group.

Your KEYSTATION is ready for use. Refer to the sections “Setting Up Your

MIDI Studio” and “Using the KEYSTATION in your Application Software” for

more information.

USB Driver Installation on the Mac

You must first install Opcodes’s OMS. This is available on the MIDISPORT

drivers page of our website, or can be installed from the driver CD by opening

the OMS folder and then double clicking the OMS install icon.

This release version of the KEYSTATION drivers requires Macintosh operating

system OS 8.6 or higher. This is offered by Apple as a free update to OS 8.5

owners. Please check the Apple website at http://asu.info.apple.com for update

information.

OMS is a MIDI manager program that is made by Opcode. We have included it

on the CD disk for your convenience, and also offer it as a free download from

our website’s MIDISPORT drivers page. OMS is required to run the

KEYSTATION on the Macintosh, and it is important that you install OMS before

running the KEYSTATION Installer. Locate the OMS installer program on this

CD in the OMS 2.3.7 folder, and simply double click its icon to install OMS.

Once this has been successfully completed, you can move on to the next step- the

KEYSTATION 1.0 Installer.

FOR FIRST TIME INSTALLS: If you power up your Mac with the

KEYSTATION attached and powered up, you will receive a message

that an “unknown USB device has been detected. Click OK and

proceed with the driver installation. You may also install the drivers

first, and then plug in the KEYSTATION.

1. Insert the Driver Software CD. Open the KEYSTATION folder, then the USB

folder. There, you will find the KEYSTATION Installer program. If your unit

came with a floppy, you will first find a “KeystationMac” folder, then the USB

folder.

2. Run the KEYSTATION Installer by double clicking on it. This installs all of the

KEYSTATION’s extensions as well as the KEYSTATION OMS Driver.

However, YOU MUST HAVE OMS INSTALLED FIRST BEFORE YOU RUN

THIS INSTALLER PROGRAM. Otherwise, the KEYSTATION OMS Driver

will not be placed in the OMS folder.

Once installed, you should have 2 KEYSTATION extensions in your extensions

folder, which resides in your System folder. They are: 1) KEYSTATIONDriver;

2) KEYSTATIONShim. The installer will also place the KEYSTATION OMS

Driver in the OMS folder, which also resides in your system folder. Now it is

time to configure OMS.

Go to the Control Panel or Chooser under the Apple Menu, and make sure

AppleTalk is turned off (this is recommended, although OMS will sense that it

is on and prompt you to turn it off). If you are installing your KEYSTATION

driver and configuring OMS for the first time, follow these instructions to

configure OMS.

First Time OMS Configuration Instructions:

1. In the Opcode folder, which you will find on your hard drive, locate the OMS

Applications folder, then OMS Setup. Double click on OMS Setup.

2. OMS will inform you that it has not yet been configured. Click OK.

3. The Create A New Studio Setup dialog box now appears. Click OK.

4. The “OMS Driver Search” box asks you to choose the port on which you’ve

attached the KEYSTATION (either Modem or Printer). DO NOT choose a port

(since we’re using USB), just click “Search.” OMS begins Searching.

IMPORTANT: If the USB cable is not correctly hooked up to the

KEYSTATION, setup will fail.

5. “OMS Driver Setup” shows the KEYSTATION in a list when OMS successfully

finds the driver. Click OK. OMS will now define (shows “Identifying”) the

KEYSTATION output port. Please note that OMS sees the KEYSTATION port

Aas port 1 (this is an OMS idiosyncrasy).

7. The “OMS MIDI Device Setup” dialog box will appear showing the

KEYSTATION’s output port with an open check box to the left of the port.

You will now have to check this open box to enable the output port. Click on

OK.

8. Next, the “My Studio Setup” appears with a file save dialog box over it. You

will now need to name and save your new Studio Setup (or use the default

name) before you can assign an instrument to the KEYSTATION’s output.

Assign your instrument (this step is optional) and you are done.

9. Your KEYSTATION is ready for use.

You can run the OMS ‘Test Studio’ utility by going to the ‘Studio’ menu and

releasing the mouse on “Test Studio”. Playing a note on your keyboard will give

you an audio message from your computer, “MIDI received,” while the arrow

pointing to the keyboard icon flashes. Clicking on the keyboard icon with the

mouse pointer will send a tone cluster to the KEYSTATION output port. The

LED will light, and the sound module connected to the KEYSTATION MIDI Out

port should play the chord.

You may now exit OMS Setup by quitting the application. The rest is up to

configuration within your music software. Generally, this means selecting “OMS

Compatibility,” or “Open Music System” for your MIDI system setup.

Setting Up Your MIDI Studio

Atypical MIDI system set-up would include your KEYSTATION, a computer,

MIDI sequencing software and/or a MIDI compatible sound module. This type

of set-up can be connected as follows:

1. The KEYSTATION is connected to the computer via the USB port connectors,

using the supplied USB standard cable.

2. The KEYSTATION will play the synthesizer that is part of an internal sound

card, as well as any software synthesizers that are installed in your system.

This will depend on how you set up your software (see section “Using the

KEYSTATION in your Application Software.”) The audio output of the sound

card can be plugged directly into a sound system, or into a mixer, which is

then connected to a sound system.

3. The MIDI Output of the KEYSTATION is connected to the MIDI In of a sound

module. The audio output of the sound module can be plugged directly into

a sound system, or into a mixer, which is then connected to a sound system.

In the set-up below, the KEYSTATION is being used as a MIDI controller as well

as a MIDI interface, inputting MIDI data to the computer and its application

software, and outputting MIDI to a sound module from which sounds will be

produced. The KEYSTATION as a controller may also send MIDI information

to an existing internal soundcard’s MIDI synthesizer or any installed software

synthesizer, outputting the audio from the computer soundcard.

In this scenario, it may not be necessary to apply external power to the

KEYSTATION. With the power switch set to “Power Off,” the KEYSTATION

receives power from the USB port on your computer. It is recommended that you

either plug directly into the USB port on the computer, or use a powered USB hub.

You may also choose to use external power form the power supply or batteries.

Additionally, the KEYSTATION may be used as a “standalone” keyboard

controller, independent of the computer and its USB port. In this case, the

KEYSTATION must receive power either from the power supply or batteries, by

switching the power on from the rear panel. A setup such as this may be used in

a performance situation,or when you wish to use the keyboard without the

computer.

Using the KEYSTATION in your Application Software

Once the KEYSTATION driver has been installed, you will need to configure

your MIDI application software to utilize the KEYSTATION. The manner in

which this is done varies between applications, so we can just cover the basics

here.

Generally with both the Mac and PC, most MIDI applications have a MIDI port

configuration or settings dialog box, sometimes called “MIDI Devices” or

“MIDI Setup.” It is within this dialog box that you will select or enable your

MIDI input and output devices.

If the KEYSTATION drivers are properly installed, then the port selection in this

case will be the KEYSTATION In-A (or “Port 1” on the Mac) in the input

column, and then KEYSTATION Out-A (or Port 1) in the output column. Input

A(or Port 1), corresponds to the information that will be sent from the

KEYSTATION keyboard to your computer. Output A (or Port 1), corresponds to

the MIDI information sent from your music application to the physical MIDI

output on your KEYSTATION. Make sure that those items are highlighted or

checked. The output port that you select on a specific MIDI track within your

sequence will output MIDI information to the keyboard or sound module that is

attached to that port.

KEYSTATION MIDI Functions

MIDI is the acronym for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, which makes

all digital musical instruments equipped with this standardized interface able to

exchange their MIDI data or “talk to each other.”

To explain how MIDI works on your instrument in more detail, the following

illustrations outline the MIDI functions of the KEYSTATION, which allow you

to connect the keyboard to other MIDI instruments and to your computer. The

versatile MIDI capability of the KEYSTATION will offer you tremendous power

in a MIDI environment.
