Global Parameters

CC-A
CC-B
–1: Off
0...95: CC#00...CC#95
Selects one of the supported Control Change messages, in
addition to 126: Pitch Bend.
Note: CC-A and CC-B may be generated simultaneously,
with the same or different values, in alternation, and other
variations depending on internal settings of the GE.
Even if CC-A or CC-B are properly activated, you may
not be hearing any effects if the "Transmitted MIDI
Filter: "CC-A/CC-B" parameters (☞p.80) have been set
to filter out the data that KARMA is generating.

Associated Parameters

Cluster Mode
0: Single-1 Step Per Cluster
1: Multi-1 Step For Each Note In Cluster
0: Single-1 Step Per Cluster
Each time a note, cluster of notes, or group of drum notes is
generated one CC Pattern Value will be chosen for the
current step, after which the CC Pattern advances to the next
value. For example, a cluster of 6 notes will be generated
with a single CC value preceding it, and advance the pattern
by 1 to the next step.
1: Multi-1 Step For Each Note In Cluster
For every note in a cluster or group of drum notes generated
simultaneously, a separate CC Pattern Value will be chosen
after which the CC Pattern advances to the next value. For
example, a cluster of 6 notes will be generated with each
note preceded by the next 6 CC values indicated by the
pattern, with a net advance of 6 steps. This means that each
note in a cluster or each note of a drum pattern that is
generated simultaneously can be given its own CC value -
but only if your synth supports this type of behavior.
This will also affect the "Note Number" Pattern Type
options. If 0: Single, a cluster of notes will be preceded by
one CC value according to the pitch of the first note; if 1:
Multi, each note will get a corresponding CC value. For
example, if generating pan data, this can be used to pan each
note of a cluster across the selected range according to its
pitch (but only if your synth supports this type of behavior).
When the "GE Type" (☞p.529) is 1: Generated-Gated,
the number of notes being generated is considered the
Cluster Size.
When the "GE Type" is 0: Generated-Riff, setting this
to 1: Multi will have no effect unless there is a Cluster
Pattern containing values of more than just 1.
When the "GE Type" is 2: Generated-Drum, setting this to
1: Multi will have no effect unless at least one Drum
Pattern has the "[c] (clusters)" button turned on in the
Phase Pattern and there is a Cluster Pattern containing
values of more than just 1, or more than one drum note is
being generated at a time (by using more than one Drum
Pattern, or by using a single Drum Pattern in "Poly"
mode).

Pitch Offsets On/Off
0: Off 1: On
When On: 1, the Pitch Offset pattern specified by the Phase 2
CC Pattern grid is applied as transpose values to notes as
they are generated. This allows the effect of the pattern to be
switched on and off in realtime. This will not have any effect
unless internal settings of the GE specify that Pitch Offsets
are being used.
P.Offset Chord Shift
0: Off 1: Scalic1
0: Off
The Pitch Offsets are applied with no further modification
from this setting.
1: Scalic1
Chord analysis is performed on the input source material,
and as the Pitch Offset values are applied to transpose the
generated notes, notes that may be "atonal" based on the
analyzed chord are shifted to tonal notes. Useful for creating
complex chromatic Pitch Offset Patterns and ensuring that
the results stay in a certain key or chord. The note tables
used to shift the notes are the same as the ones used in Note
Series Group "Note Type": 1: Scalic. For more information,
please see "Note Type" on page 531.
2: Scalic2
Same as 1: Scalic (above), except that the note tables used to
shift the notes are the same as the ones used in "Note Series
Group "Note Type": 2: Scalic2. Scalic2 is more modal in
nature and has more passing tones than 1: Scalic.
Will not have any effect unless internal settings of the
GE specify that Pitch Offsets are being used.
Template Parameters
The two Template Parameters select from 63 or 64 different
CC/Pitch Pattern Templates, and load the parameters into
the current Phase's Pattern Grid and associated parameters.
A CC/Pitch Pattern Template consists of:
• the configuration of the CC Pattern Grid
• Random Weighting Parameters
• Polarity

page 539, and "Template" on page 542.
