KENTON PLUGSTATION USERS MANUAL

PLUGSTATION (In this case the control software you use for SW1000XG would have one of the ports set

up to SW1000 MIDI OUT to control the PLUGSTATION parts). The D-SUB would however be required if a

PLG100VH was part of this system.

2: The ADAT out of PLUGSTATION (8 channels) is being sent to the AX16AT card ADAT input A, which is

then being fed to 8 channels of the DS2416 (set up using appropriate software). These are then in turn

being fed to the AX16AT ADAT outs (8 channels of PLUGSTATION plus 8 channels of anything else (such

as DS2416 tracks or SW1000XG synth or audio parts via the DS2416 internal connector) to the ADAT

inputs of a suitable digital mixer

3: The SW1000XG is serial connected to the DS2416 and SW1000XG Audio and synth parts are being sent

via the internal connector to a further 8 channels of the Ds2416. These are again in turn being fed to the

ADAT outs or the analogue outputs of the DS2416

4: The SW1000XG audio outs (not required in this case, but we added them because we could!) can also be

sent to 2 channels of the mixer

5: The SW1000XG audio and MIDI synth parts are not in this case being sent to PLUGSTATION, as they

would then be doubling up with the parts being sent over the CN connector

6: It is also possible to feed the 8 analogue outputs from PLUGSTATION to a further 8 channels of a mixer

to process the PLG cards with different EQ and effects treatments to those being provided by the feed from

the ADAT ports of the AX16/DS2416 combination (although this may be overkill!)

So what we have is a standard DS2416 connected to SW1000XG and AX16AT setup, but with the added

bonus of a further 8 discrete output channels from the PLG cards fitted to PLUGSTATION.

Mind blowing power and flexibility we think you’ll agree.

Of course with this setup you don’t actually need the Z-BOARD unless you also want to send SW1000XG

parts out of the PLUGSTATION. However we do recommend it as if you wish to work just with the

SW1000XG in certain cases, this is the only way you can do so and get discrete audio parts.

Even without the DS2416 involved you could have 8 channels of SW1000XG AUDIO/MIDI and PLG cards

(to a maximum of 8 channels), plus the 2 channels from the SW1000XG main outputs giving a total of up 10

discrete channels coming out to your mixer.

NOTE: FOR DS2416 OPERATION CONFIGURATION OF BUSSES, AND ROUTING YOU SHOULD

REFER TO YOUR DS2416 APPLICATION MANUAL AND ALSO TO THE AX16AT/AX44 USER MANUAL

FOR SETTINGS IF APPLICABLE. KENTON ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR TECHNICAL SUPPORT FOR

DS2416/AX16AT AND ANY SUPPORT SOFTWARE. PLUGSTATION IS AN EXPANDER FOR THE

SW1000XG AND CANNOT BE USED WITH JUST A DS2416 AS AN OUTPUT EXPANDER SYSTEM.

YAMAHA’S AX44, AX16AT AND THE ADB AX88 ARE 3 EXPANDER SYSTEMS SUITABLE FOR USE

WITH THE DS2416.

Now, take into consideration applications like software synths. With the Z-BOARD option you can turn the

SW1000XG into an immensely powerful effects processing multi output software synth player. Applications

such as Cubase VST for example with its software synth hosting system (or

SONAR/LOGIC/GIGASAMPLER..…the list goes on), now take on a whole new lease of life, as the

SW1000XG will not use any CPU power for adding effects or mixing or routing these to the Y-BOARD

outputs.

You could in fact mix and match combinations of PLG sounds, SW1000XG sounds, and using the Z-BOARD

ability to send SW1000XG audio parts, software synth or sampler parts down the same outputs, or different

outputs. PLUGSTATION with applications like Gigasampler is like having a real multi output hardware

sampler, with the added bonus of some of the cleanest 24-bit outputs you will ever hear.
