Scenario
You would like to play simple 3 and 4 note chords on the keyboard, and have KARMA send them out as traditional "open-voiced" chords.
Procedure
Since we don't want KARMA to generate riffs...
Scenario
You want to change the time signature of a GE that you're using in a KARMA Performance.
Procedure for both Korg OASYS and Korg M3
There are two methods you can use to experiment with...
Scenario
You want to use one of KARMA's simple arpeggiator GEs to create an arpeggiator effect that plays a constant rhythm over the same span of time regardless of how many notes you play (which...

Perhaps you have a Korg M3 and you'd like to achieve the well-known effect of "wave-sequencing" similar to the...
Scenario
You'd like to have KARMA vary the waveforms of a program, without having the typical arpeggiation or note pattern of a KARMA GE at the same time.
Procedure
Let's try KARMA WaveSequencing...

This RTC Model has two of KARMA’s three independent envelopes set up to operate as dual LFOs (low frequency oscillators), which can be configured to send any CC# (in addition to some other...
The Dual Envelope Generator RTC Model provides access to two independent envelope generators, which can be configured to send any CC# (in addition to some other special KARMA functions). This is...
Overview/History
A “Real-Time Control Model” (RTC Model) is a specification of up to 32 GE Real-Time Parameters (GE RTP for short) that are designed to work together and produce certain types...
All of the 2048 preset GEs are categorized into 13 different Real-Time Control Model (RTC Model) Types, such as "DP1 - Drum/Perc," "BL1 - Bass/Lead," etc. These are not the same as the GE...

The Master Control Layer of a combi does not have an RTC Model per se. However, the Karma-Lab and Korg combi developers generally try to use the following guidelines when assigning sliders and...
The following tables show the basic setup for each RTC Model. As shown in the color chart below, different colors have been used to show the basic grouping of controls within each RTC...

Scenario
Typically you use the harmonic minor scale (flat 6th) when when the main tonality of what you're playing is minor, and you use the natural minor scale (major 6th) when the main tonality...
Scenario
You've got KARMA generating a nice riff, but you don't like the presence of the maj7th note (example) in the notes being generating in response to maj7 chords that you're playing. You'd...

The most important thing to understand about KARMA is that what you can see and work with in your keyboard is only part of the total picture.
What is a Performance?
In "KARMA-speak," the technical...
Both keyboards share a virtually identical implementation of KARMA 2, with only minor differences in the physical control surface layout and in the organization of KARMA-related pages in the COMBI...
The main differences between KARMA in the Korg Karma and KARMA in the Korg OASYS and Korg M3 can be broken down into 3 main areas:
Separate Control Surface layers for each of the 4 KARMA Modules...
Scenario
You are playing a drum program in real time (KARMA is off) and you want to be able to turn KARMA on at various points and have KARMA simulate realistic-sounding drum fills or even entire...
