6. Make settings so that the KARMA modules will
synchronize to the currently-running Drum Track
pattern.
In the P7–2: KARMA2– Trigger A/B/C/D page, turn
Quantize Trigger
on (selected).
Specifying whether the drum track will oper-
ate for each KARMA scene
Just as you can in Program mode, you can specify
whether the drum track will operate for each KARMA
scene in Combination mode and Sequencer mode.
These settings are made by the respective P7–1:
KARMA1– Scene Matrix page DT Run parameter.
Refer to the procedure for Program mode (see
page 192).
Synchronizing the Drum Track
function
The Trigger “Sync” parameter
The trigger timing of a drum track will depend on the
setting of its Trigger Sync parameter.
On (checked): The trigger timing will be quantized to
the nearest beat relative to the base tempo.
Off (unchecked): If Trigger Mode is Start Immediately,
triggering will occur at the moment you press the
DRUM TRACK ON/OFF switch. If this is set to Wait
KBD Trig, triggering will occur at the moment you
play the keyboard.
Synchronizing the drum track with the KAR-
MA function, Sequencer mode songs, pat-
terns, and RPPR performance
If you want the Drum Track pattern to play or be
recorded in synchronization with the currently-
operating KARMA function, currently-playing song,
pattern, or RPPR performance, turn Trigger Sync on.
Trigger Sync Off: If the Trigger Mode setting is Start
Immediately, the Drum Track pattern will be triggered
the moment you press the DRUM TRACK ON/OFF
switch. If this is set to Wait KBD Trig, the Drum Track
pattern will be triggered the moment you play the
keyboard. It will not synchronize to the currently-
operating KARMA function or to the currently-playing
song, pattern, or RPPR.
Trigger Sync On: Triggering will synchronize to the
currently-playing song, pattern or RPPR performance
in units of a measure. Triggering will synchronize to
the currently-operating KARMA function (in
Sequencer mode if the song or pattern is stopped) in
units of a beat.
Note: If you want to synchronize KARMA to the
currently-running Drum Track function, set the
Quantize Trigger
parameter (Prog P7–1: KARMA1–
Trigger, Combi/Seq P7: KARMA2– Trigger A/B/C/
D).
Note: If you want to synchronize the RPPR pattern
performance to the currently-running Drum Track
function, set the Sync parameter (Seq P10: Pattern/
RPPR– RPPR Setup page) to Beat or Measure.
