The Karma is a nice instrument, but one the sort that let's *you* do everything, or *it* does everything for you.
For example, there are four buttons you can use to trigger complete presetted chords. Drum-tracks, bass tracks, melody, textures, even vocals. It does everything for you, if you let it. Don't let it! I wonder in how many new charty songs this crap will appear. I still remember Blu Mar Ten using the preset-soundcheck-chord that most Roland synthies have.
It was annoying, this chord was made for the user to check soundlevel and panning and fx and so on...
And yes, you can use something like a tracker with the Karma, it of course has a built in sequencer and some other toys like that tracker like-thingie (in fact, it reminds me of the W-30's sequencer, to be honest) and a Karma-specific mode were you can access certain sounds to certain parts of (your own or presetted) compositions, but the clue is: You can modulate every single bit of every sound by using the little stick at the left and/or the reassigned keys from the clavier and/or some other keys. So you can use all your fingers at once to alter the sound. If you have full control over your fingers (+ absolute pitch, would be helpful) you can do the most weirdest things with a complete song at once you'll never even dream of.
Karma stands Kay Algorithmic Realtime Music Architecture and that long shit means it uses Stephen Kay's extravagant algorithms to create new sounds. That's what Korg was to make us believe. It's not thaaaaat special, but still an amazing instrument. I wish they would stop building such complex synthies, but use that good synthesis instead without all the additional crap like preset-goodies and 'here-and-there-details' you'll never need. Just the core please.
Modern workstation, but has a very very good sound.
Bad is, there's an update for a new operating system and I have to check it out as well.
yes, and that's a big transgression actually (at least at my territory), if i was a moderator here i'd ruin all the stuff and ban you!
Mhm, I renounce to ban myself.
Besides, I talked bull anyway, I still thought we were in your offtopic-area, so I didn't offtopiced anything, *mwuahahaha*
Okay.
Please continue with the original maneuver, Captain Zed
yes, i'm also big fan of "private parts" movie...
Actually, it was related to the Captain Dread-adventures,
what is Private Parts? Sounds like a porn movie...
Still haven't seen Uranus Experiment.
I d/led some nice porn music, I used to relax to some smooth Bossa Nova or Samba when I come from work, but now that I discovered cheesy porno-music, I can TOTALLY relax.
Well, while it's pretty annoying if you have actual samples of the film in the music (you know...), it's just very slow and mostly even neutral music.
I still don't know how to tell the next chicks that I hear music
which is played in porno-films.
