I cannot descide wich one i should buy, Novation K-station,
or the X-station. Anyone around here who has either one of
them? Or perhaps both.. but that would be crazy shit, 4 rly
m0tha

Anyways, which one do you think i should go for? Don't ask
me for what kinda music i want to use it, cause it's a
really wide scale already ....

well i hav ethe KS Rack and taxidermist has the x station
infact im selling my KS rack but to your point, its a lovely
sounding synth, very analogue ish, great for dirty basses or
soft early aphex type pads

its nice

I use the X-Station, and like it. What are you looking for
in a synth. The novation seems more like a swiss army knife
than a sound generator, so if you want an all in one, then
get the x-station, but I have not used a K-Station before.

The X-Station uses a similar engine, I am just not sure how
fully featured it is.

analogue-ish then... hm sounds nice... i've got a Roland
E-68 midi keyboard here with 6 octaves, so the KS-rack might
already be enough. Still doubting, need more voices for both

If you want more voices, I might suggest the KS rack that
taffmonster is selling, seeing as its four part
multi-timbral.

Well, i am kinda looking for an analogue-ish sound, not too
expensive (that's why i'm going for novation in the first
place as far as my knowledge reaches) and well.... neat....
and no real limitations so that i drove 2 hours to get it in
order to sell it in a year again

the ks rack is nice sounding alot more authentically
analogue than most analogue modelling synths, at leats in my
opinion. the whole layout is very intuative but then my
first synth was a korg prophecy so im most likely gonna say
anything is more intuative than that thing lol

This track was 100% KS rack apart form the
breakbeat (its a shit and old song but its the only one i
ahve hosted of pure KS-ness)

Plenty of voices.

Scroll down to select which synth you want to see reviews
of. Good site for pretty much any reference.

another good Synth info site

i think the best way for me to descide, is to play the synth
as a test itself in the shop, before i can make a final
descision. Thanks for the help :) , even more oppinions are
still welcome

The K Station is a nice synth for the money.
