Getting Started
Once you have finished installation you will need to configure your MIDI application software to use the Keystation 61es. Please notice
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 61es 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 61es should appear under the name “USB Audio Device” for Windows XP or as “Keystation 61es” 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 set up procedure.
Key Names
Each white key on the Keystation 61es is labeled with a letter and a number. The letter represents the note played and the
number represents the octave (the definition of “octave” is explained in the next section).
Although the black keys are not labeled, they also have names (“F# 4” or “Eb2” are examples of black key names).
If the name of a black key contains a “#” sign, it is referring to the black key above the same note white key. For example,
“F# 3” refers to the black key above F3. If the name of a black key is expressed with a “b” sign, it is referring to the black key
below the same note white key. For example, “Eb3” refers to the black key below E3. As a result, the black key between C3
and D3 is both C# 3 and Db3.
