Hello all... I have been thinking for some time about getting a used Karma but if my memory serves me right, I remember that Karma had some problems shortly after they were released.

Does anyone have advice or suggestions on what to look for and/or watch out for when buying a used Karma?

Or, is there a link or thread that discusses problems some have had with the Karma?

I definitely want this synth and want to make sure I go about buying a used unit with both eyes open.

Thanks in advance for fielding a wannabe's questions.

Make sure the pitchbender is working – there were reports that the internal connection broke under enthusiastic use. Also, for convenience, try to get one with version 2 of the operating system, although you can do the upgrade from v1 yourself. But some users found it difficult apparently (I had no problem).

Good luck with it!

Kind regards.
