Are these two pretty much identical? I was going to get the v station vst for logic however my friend ended up giving me his k station synth. Just wanted to know if you guys had any experiences with these.

Hi! I have a comparison between the V-Station and other Novation synth (i dont remember lol) maybe is the K-Station , made by a member of this forum a time ago (I cant find the old thread ).
I dont remeber if the hardware synth or softsynth sound first sorry
I tried the K-Station while I visited a big music store, and I have to say I was shocked! :-P Didn't sound much different than V-Station. V-Station is in my opinion one of the 5 best VSTs out there.
The main difference between hardware and software is usaly the quality, it's noticable. For instance, no VST can produce a so deep, clear and raw supersaw sound as the JP8000.

It sounded different with the filter. I heard that v-station powercore version has that problem resolved so it should sound just like a k-station.

if your interested just pm me, I have all the K-station presets converted to V-station, so there's no need to buy a K-station.

The "test" mp3s aren't there.. but the only difference was that hte filter sounded a bit crisper at times and a few of the presets sounded different too...
The fact that V-Station sounds as good as it does, makes it one of the best VST instruments you can get... but the fact that the hardware sounds just like the software makes it one of the worst VA hardware synthesizers you can get... sort of funny.
Thanks TripAudio - erm....I have a really dumb question though...
how do i now load the presets into V-station?
When i click FILE>lOAD BANK it only wants .fxb files,
When i click FILE>LOAD INST. it only wants .fxp files,
what am i doing wrong?

RTFM!
You import them inside V-Station, not through the VST-host.
Damn! You made me boot up FL to look what the friggin' thing is called.
CURSE YOU!
Anyways... If you click on "Global" and "import" then you will magically open up a file dialog that will suck you through the screen and right into ... Maybe I should've left that part out.
Ignore that last part...
Just open the .MID file, and start browsing your new cool presets.
