The Novation K-Station is a very cool analog modeling synth from the early 2000s. The panel is intuitively laid out, and gives you all Layers in an Omnisphere patch, basic modulation, filter, envelopes, and effects. Plenty of editing power in a compact synth! It was discontinued a long time ago, but if you already have one or are planning to get one to satisfy some early 2000s nostalgia, it’s a very nice controller for Omnisphere.

- Intuitive Panel
