SEQ P7: KARMA

Here you can make settings for the KARMA functions used
in Sequencer mode. A Sequencer mode song can use four
KARMA Modules (Modules A, B, C, and D).
In Sequencer mode, you can use the KARMA function on
song tracks or for pattern real-time recording. The note-on/
off and MIDI control data generated by the KARMA
Modules can be recorded as events on a track or pattern. If
you've selected CONTROL ASSIGN KARMA at this time,
you can also use sliders 1–8 and switches 1–8 to control the
phrases and patterns in realtime as you record.
When playing back a song or pattern, you can use the
KARMA function in real-time on your KYBD-61/73/88's
keyboard playing, or in conjunction with real-time
performance using the RPPR function
The data from the internal sequencer is not input to the
KARMA Modules. Note data from the internal
sequencer cannot be used as triggers to cause the
KARMA function to generate phrases.
The state of the KARMA ON/OFF switch, the LATCH
switch, SCENE 1/5–4/8, and the sliders 1–8 and switches 1–
8 when CONTROL ASSIGN KARMA is selected can be
saved independently for each song.
By using the menu command Copy KARMA Module, you
can easily copy the KARMA Module settings of a program
or combination. Use this when you wish to use Sequencer
mode to record the KARMA phrase or pattern of Program
mode.

Here you can select the GE that will be used by each
KARMA Module, and specify the Key Zone and MIDI Setup
for the four KARMA Modules used by the Sequencer mode
song.
In the GE Setup A page you can make settings for KARMA
module A. The MIDI input/output channels are specified
for each module.
By using the menu command Copy From Combi, you can
copy the entire settings of a combination, and real-time
record a performance that uses the KARMA function (Multi
REC).
By using the Auto Song Setup function you can
automatically transfer the settings of a program or
combination into a song, and then begin recording
immediately simply by pressing the START/STOP switch. If
you come up with an inspired phrase or song idea while
using the KARMA function in Program or Combination
mode, you can immediately convert your inspiration into a
song. The Auto Song Setup function seamlessly takes you
from playing a program or combination into creating a song.
For more information, please see "Tip: Auto Song Setup" on
page 192.
The tempo of the song and the KARMA function
cannot be set independently.
If MIDI Clock (Global 1–1b) is set to Internal, you can use
the start timing of the internal sequencer to synchronize the
KARMA Module.
• If you press the START/STOP switch while the KARMA
function is operating, the KARMA function will
synchronize to the timing of the sequencer.
• If you then press the START/STOP switch again, the
KARMA function will stop playing, as will the
sequencer. If you wish to stop only the KARMA
function, press the KARMA ON/OFF switch.
If MIDI Clock (Global 1–1b) is set to External MIDI,
External USB, or Auto, the M3 can be controlled in the
same way by MIDI realtime clock commands from a
connected external MIDI device. For more information,
please see "Synchronizing the KARMA function" on
page 182 of the Operation Guide.
