Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Keystation Pro 88, an 88-note, hammer-action, velocity-sensitive USB keyboard. The class-
compliant Keystation Pro 88 can easily integrate with PC and Mac computer music environments. It can be used play virtual
instruments, external MIDI hardware synthesizers, sound modules, drum machines and samplers. The Pro 88 offers true plug-and-
play functionality via class compliancy in Windows XP and Mac OS X. Simply plug in the USB cable to begin installation—no driver
is required.
Your Keystation Pro 88 is more than just a professional keyboard, it is a MIDI controller that gives you hands-on access for control of
multiple MIDI parameters, such as MIDI Continuous Controller data (or CCs), RPN/NRPN data, MIDI Bank Change LSB and MSB, and
Program Changes on 16 different MIDI channels. You can easily control your studio using only the Keystation Pro 88. To familiarize
