guitar strumming is handled by KARMA. This feature is quite cool, and you can actually stum manually with the ribbon or the joystick, or use a generated strumming/picking pattern.
This feature is demoed in most of the NAMM demo videos currently out.

Hi,

if I remeber correctly Stephen Kay has provided a demo and download for strumming and that manual advance (I think it is called like that). Using Karma you play the chord silent with left hand and can play/pick/strum with right hand. Very cool and authentic.

Thanks for posting that - suddenly, that whole OASYS series is largely relevant again.
