Perf RTP (Perf Real-Time Parameters)
In the same way as for a program, KARMA function
parameters other than GE realtime parameters (e.g.,
KARMA module parameters) can also be assigned to
controllers.
These settings are valid when MODULE CONTROL is
set to MASTER.
1. Access the Combi P7–4: KARMA4– Perf RTP page.
In the same way as for a program, set Group,
Parameter
, Min, Max, Value, Assign, and Polarity. In a
combination, you can use the four KARMA modules
A, B, C, and D.
Turn on (check) the A, B, C, and/or D boxes to select
the module(s) you want to control.
In the above example, KARMA switches 1, 2, 3, and 4
are controlling the Run/Mute setting of modules A, B,
C, and D respectively.
Dynamic MIDI settings
You can make these settings in the same way as for a
program. For details, please see “Dynamic MIDI
Sources & Destinations” on page 601 of the Parameter
Guide.
Naming the KARMA sliders 1–8 and KARMA
switches 1–8 for MASTER and module A–D
In the same way as for a program, you can select
names for the KARMA sliders and KARMA switches.
These settings are saved as part of the combination.
In a combination, the area in square brackets [ ]
automatically shows a portion of the category name of
the program selected for each timbre controlled by the
KARMA sliders and KARMA switches. This lets you
know the timbre whose phrase is being controlled by
each KARMA slider and KARMA switches.
If more than one timbre is being controlled, the area in
square brackets will indicate “MULTI.”
Auto Assign RTC Name (See “Auto Assign RTC
Name” on page 117 of the Parameter Guide)
Specifying the random seeds
For each GE realtime parameter group, you can specify
whether the random seed (used to generate random
values) will be shared between the four KARMA
modules.
1. Access the Combi P7–1: KARMA1– Random Seeds
page.
Normally, you will set the four modules to use
separate random seeds as shown above; A: 1, B: 2, C: 3,
and D: 4. If you have selected the same GE for two or
more KARMA modules and want them to play in
unison using the identical random values, you must
select the same random seed for each of these modules.
For details, please see “7–1–8: Random Seeds” on
page 167 of the Parameter Guide.
Linking KARMA settings to Combination
changes
KARMA settings can be saved individually for each
Combination. Normally, when you select a new
Combination, its KARMA settings will be loaded as
well. In some cases, however, you may wish to try out
different Combinations while keeping the KARMA
settings the same.
The Global Basic page Load KARMA when changing
parameters let you select between these two behaviors.
There are separate settings for Programs,
Combinations, and Songs. To set this up:
1. Go to the Global Basic page.
2. Under “Load KARMA setting when changing”, set
the “Combinations” check-box as desired.
Check the box to load the individual Combinations’
KARMA settings.
Un-check the box to keep KARMA settings the same,
even when changing Combinations.
For details, please see “Load KARMA when
changing:” on page 357 of the Parameter Guide.
