This is my favorite tutorial video by far, and the one most useful to me so far. Thanks for the awesome work.

One follow-up question. . . how the heck do I get Karma to slow down the arpeggiation speed? When I select baselines, it is way too fast. . . I want it to play the base slower without having to modify the tempo.

the way to do this depends on the RTC model of KARMA, but in most cases you have to modify the Rythm multiplier parameter to change it.

I have an arpeggiator example in tutorial 2 where i show this. However, this rythm multiplayer parameters is not available in every RTC model, so sometimes it's not possible without the software to slow the bassline down. Which bassline GE are you revering too, then i can look for you which parameter you can use for that.

Another simple thing you can try is to change the value of KARMA slider 2, the template one. when you select a value higher then 64 in most cases the generated notes are slower then with lower numbers.

Thanks a lot Qui

Went yesterday evening thru the demo at the Kronos and reconstructing the Combi, and although I thought I knew pretty ok how to construct a Combi, you had a few handy tips in there (e.g copying the effects settings, and the Karma number of notes in the baseline)! Very helpful. Thanks a lot!
