X-station Users, I Need You Help Options

[iknownothing23]

Hi all, cool forum.

I’ve just got my grubby mitts on a X-Station. I’m having lots of fun controlling this and that within Logic & Live, loving the KS engine.

I don’t have manual as it came from a friend who misplaced it and I cant print off the PDF from the Novation website as I don’t have access to a printer at work with out getting caught and have no access to the inter-web at home. I know, I know, it’s a tuff life I have. So I thought someone here may be able to help me.

What I would like to do is record the X-Station’s KS synth into a Logic track. I’m using a G4 Powerbook and don’t have another soundcard apart from the X-Station itself. I’m using the X-Station as my main output straight into my monitors & only has the 2, left/right. It has a S/PDIF output. I know nothing about S/PDIF. Can I run S/PDIF output into one of the inputs or will that create a looping, blow my speakers to piece’s effect. It there a way I can do this with out getting another soundcard/interface, can you even run 2 soundcards on a Powerbook.

Any advice would be appreciated largely

Many Thanks

Audio in on x-station is either 2 mono or one stereo. The K-station engine comes through the sound card on input 2. All the effects from k' engine are also adjusted when set to that input.
I use cubase so not too sure on logic, setting an audio channel to input 2 should accept a recording from k-sta.... engine.

P.S there's a lot of depth to be found in the synth, have fun.
