KARMA GE: QED in 7 + waveseq

Post by carabidus »

I absolutely LOVE this particular KARMA engine. Instead of the pattern transitioning in 7 beats, is there a way to make it go to 8 beats?

Normally I use "KARMA engine" to refer to the entire KARMA function, i.e. the chunk of code inside the Kronos that is the KARMA feature. You mean "KARMA GE" - but not important. Just thought I'd mention it.

I took a quick look at the GE in the KARMA Kronos software. No way to modify the programmed time signature, it's fixed at 7/4. No GE RT Parameters assigned to modify the time signature, unfortunately. Although, with the KARMA Kronos software, you could copy the GE and modify the time signature, and upload to a User GE slot on the Kronos.

However, you could try playing with the Performance Time Signature. This is a parameter in each Combi or Program that allows you to override the pre-programmed time signature in the GE. It works, honestly, with varying degrees of success. You go to the KARMA GE tab, and at the top, you will see KARMA T.Sig: GE/TS (by default, which means GE's Time Signature as programmed) - but you can select, 4/4, or 8/4 for example. Give it a try, I can't check it myself right this moment to hear if it does anything good. :)
