5. When you turn on the KARMA ON/OFF switch,

KARMA will begin playing.

Select any desired KARMA GE. When you rotate the
TEMPO knob, the delay time will change in
synchronization with the changing tempo of the
KARMA.

Depending on the specific delay effect, you may
hear a noise if you change the tempo while the
delay is sounding. This is because the delay sound
becomes discontinuous, and is not a malfunction.

For some effects, you can synchronize the LFO
frequency to the tempo. Set the effect parameters
MIDI Sync

to On, and BPM to MIDI. For details,

please see “Tempo Synchronization” on page 422
of the Parameter Guide.

Common FX LFO

Two Common FX LFOs are available for modulation
effects, such as choruses, filters, phasers, etc. In the P8–
Common FX LFO page of Program, Combination,
Sequencer, or Sampling modes, you can specify the
reset conditions and speed of Common FX LFO 1 and
2.

Normally, the LFOs of two or more modulation-type
effects used simultaneously will not have
synchronized phase even if you set them to the
identical Frequency, since the LFOs are being
generated independently.

However if you select Common 1 or Common 2 for the
LFO Type

parameter of a modulation-type effect, the

effect will use not its own individual LFO but the
Common LFO you specify here. This allows you to use
a single Common FX LFO to simultaneously control
two or more modulation-type effects such as flanger,
phaser, or auto-pan with the same phase. Since you can
make independent settings for LFO waveform and
phase offset for each effect, you are free to create
complex combinations of effects.
