The Novation X-Station is a virtual analog synthesizer, audio interface and MIDI controller made by the British company Novation. It is the end-result of adding an audio interface, a KS-class synthesiser and an effects section to the company's ReMOTE controllers. The product was sold for a short time under the name ReMOTE Audio, before being rebranded as the X-Station. Functionally there are no differences between the two, apart from the software (which can be updated). It comes in three variants : 25, 49 and 61 keys (2,4 and 5 octaves, respectively).
