The M3 is not an arranger so you don't have traditional arranger features like styles and fills, etc.

The M3 does have Karma which can provide some arranger like functionality with its Generated Effects but it is in no way meant to be an arranger. You can also purchase the Karma software for even more customization. You should read up on Karma in the manuals.

The M3 is a great board and Karma is awesome but if you need a full arranger you should consider something else.

Probably the closest you can get to what you want would be to build a custom bank - a series of related combis that you could step through.

Given what you've outlined - A-B-C-D-Fill1-Fill2 you'd need 6 combinations.

But, since the fills in an auto-arranger go to the next selected pattern when complete and there's no provision to change or step automatically you'd just do 4, with no fills.

For each change to work you'd need to set all the combis to ON (active) with each one playing with the first note-on at the same BPM. With a little practice you should be able to get the transitions to be fairly smooth.

You can use the up or down arrows to step through a set of related combis - if you want to you can also use the assignable switch to step either up or down (unfortunately one direction only).

One last tip is that you can use the touch screen to change between combinations if you stay in select mode - touch/select bank or instrument and you can select your next combination by highlighting any location on the resulting page. As long as you don't touch OK to finalize the selection you can continue to change to any combination on the screen with just a touch.

KARMA in the M3 is much more versatile than the Triton arpeggiators; you can program 8 different scenes for 8 different variations. However, you are still basically right. You cannot have dedicated "fills", although you can try to program a scene to function in the manner of a fill.

The video demo is for Kronos but it should still work on the M3

apex (forum member) is experimenting with the M3 at the moment so you may want to ask him re progress?
