7–8: Random Seeds

The Random Seeds page allows you to control some of
the randomizable characteristics of a Module's GE.
Different Modules using the same GE can have various
randomizable characteristics "linked" so that they
share the same start seeds, generating phrases with the
same characteristics.
For more information, please see "7–8: Random Seeds"
on page 118.
7–8a: Seed
Rhythm (Rhythm Seed)
A
B
C
D
Allows you to share the same random rhythm
characteristics between modules using the same GE.
For the GE selected for each KARMA Module, you can
often control the degree of randomness for various
parameter groups such as rhythm, duration, velocity
etc. The random calculations are performed based on
initial starting values, known as "seeds."

• 5: Swap Scene. For more information, see "Swap
Scene" on page 409.
• 6: Capture Random Seed. For more information,
see "Capture Random Seed" on page 409.
• 7: Copy From Program. For more information, see
"Copy From Program" on page 405.
For example, if you select Rhythm Seed 1 for all four
KARMA Modules, running the same GE under the
same conditions will cause the randomness of the
rhythms to be identical. If many types of randomness
are being used, such as duration, velocity etc., setting
all the seeds to the same value within each group will
cause the resulting phrases to be identical.
Conversely, if you select Rhythm Seed 1, 2, 3, and 4
respectively for the four KARMA Modules and run the
same GE under the same conditions, the randomness
of the rhythms will be different. If many types of
randomness are being used, such as duration, velocity
etc., setting all the seeds to the different values within
each group will cause the resulting phrases to be
[1, 2, 3, 4]
completely different.
[1, 2, 3, 4]
Normally, you will select different values, such as [A]:
1, [B]: 2, [C]: 3, [D]: 4.
[1, 2, 3, 4]
Select identical values if you want two or more
[1, 2, 3, 4]
KARMA Modules to play the same randomizable GE
in unison or harmony with the same randomizations.
Changing these settings will not have any effect for
GEs that were not designed to utilize various
random capabilities
