Wondered if you can feed that terrific KRONOS grand piano into the OASYS? Anyone ?
Sample it
que fantastico este tipo.....
This video should also be made for Kronos !?
Hola Stephen, mi pregunta es si karma me permite crear mis propios arpegios a modo de crear música tropical latina gracias
Yes, you can create custom arpeggio patterns with KARMA Motif to create whatever style of music you like.
Gracias Saludos desde Chile !
How do I buy this package?
www.karma-lab.com/store/cat2
A few years back, Steve, you wrote me that you were developing new sound sets for the motif XF Karma....I had written that my genre is primarily rock, and you were forthright upfront in telling me the Karma at that time may not float my boat. Wondering if there's been any development that would appeal to classic rock players like myself. Many thanks.
I'm about to release our first Xpansion pack of 32 new Performances. A few of them are rock-oriented, some are dance-oriented, some are ambient, etc. We put a variety of styles in the package. I don't really think that I'm ever going to focus on a particular style in a package because it's just hard to make a return that way. A general package appeals to *most* owners, while a specific style only appeals to a few owners.
I think I'm retarded or did something wrong with my settings somewhere, karma is not working properly, what did I do wrong lol
Hi, here is not a support forum for the M3, however this is: www.karma-lab.com/forum/m3
Would be Nice that Stephan also such with Kronos does
The sounds are good. The M3, however, has such a small lifespan, due to it's notorious touch-screen failing problem, that unless you want to throw your money down the drain as I did, I'd advice staying clear of this synth, but look to use KARMA on another, newer synth.
The failure of the touch screen is not the "death" of an M3. It's easy and relatively inexpensive to get it replaced. I had two M3's (now just one) and I've had the screen replaced in both of them, for a "brand new" M3. It's true it fails, but this is well-known and easy to fix. Just sayin'...
The point is firstly that expensive synths shouldn't be designed with screens which need to be replaced, & secondly, as with many musicians, I certainly don't have the money to go & buy screens when I already had to save up to buy the synth in the first place. It's not even possible to re-calibrate the screen, since the screen doesn't work. If there were some other simple button functions, for example horizontal arrows, then I would be able to move between tabs at the bottom of the screen.
I'm not going to get in hosting rants about Korg and/or device durability here. I guess you can either fix it, or use it as a boat anchor - it's up to you. I'm just telling you it's definitely fixable and you will have a like-new M3 when you're done.
Hi Stephen, is the 'Industrial Strength" combi available for Kronos ? If yes, it belongs to which of your commercial packs ? Thanks :)
No, it is not. Sorry...
Great playing !
Stephen Kay, A true Genius.
cool demo just pulled my m3 & kronos out of storage ~ i prefer the m3 love the pads so powerful ♡
He reminds me geppeto from pinnochio !
I still don''t know what Karma technology is ? M3 is not sold nowadays what keyboards does have the KARMA and other cool features??
The latest Korg keyboard incorporating KARMA Technology is the Kronos. You can find out more about KARMA at karma-lab.com. Specifically: www.karma-lab.com/karma/What_Is_KARMA.html www.karma-lab.com/karma/HowDoesKARMAWork.html
Stephen Kay: The man is a genius.
I'm hearing the style of Oscar Peterson delivered really well. Excellent work
Steve Kay is damn gud charlie.....keep up. pls include d ability 2 customize n more of realistic box guitar GE's
C'est une incroyable MACHINE ! Quelle PUISSANCE ! Et Stephen Kay assure grave.
Amazing composition and performance!
Thank you! :)
lovly composision and vocal good work on kronos indeed. but we talk about the master of karma and midi in use also... thanks Stephen kay inspiring ......
Very good!
Love it!
is it easy to replace the touch panel? Mine is not functioning properly.
@Jade Pascual - see this discussion: www.karma-lab.com/forum/showthread.php?t=16671
you could see the discussion, or I could just tell you it's a really common repair and your local repair shop will almost definitely be familiar with it. Give em a call, every single m3 had this issue eventually, it's utterly disastrous, luckily in the replacement they say the issue is fixed...we'll see in a few years
Where can I get this Karms MW software for my Karma-MOSS synth? I've never even heard of such software? Sound editing directly within Karma is rewarding but tedious, and bank swapping via floppy disk barely cuts it any more so I was hoping there was something like this for the Karma workstation, and there is!! But where can I download it?
@HardlineFeminists You can get it at Karma-Lab.com and read about it here: www.karma-lab.com/mw - but it is only for editing the KARMA parts of the programs and combis. It doesn't do synth parameters and bank swapping etc. as you hope.
june 2016 and this video is still awesome!!!
Grandissimo
how can I get a copy of this for my neko?
+The Associates Music - Unfortunately, this project was never released due to Open Labs essentially going out of business, then reforming as an app company. So KARMA is currently only available for Korg and Yamaha workstations.
i bought a 73 key m3. i sold my fantom g7 and motif xs. now the m3 will be my board.
+Jade Pascual - cool, welcome to the M3!
Awesome Vid, Thanks for your help.
I cry EVERY time I watch the video. The amazing "song-smithing""by Kay married to the perfectly placed video segments evoke heart- wrenching memories . Moist of the time I expect music to up-lift us but there are special instances where respect and decorum prevail. This was quite a fitting acknowledgement to brave ,personal sacrifice so we can all share in the wonders of "pushing the envelope " .We will all greatly miss those 7 souls and forever remember their ultimate sacrifice! Steven Kay you can be oh ,so very proud and also the other participants in this tribute song and video.
I'm thinking about incorporating this song into a presentation I want to make on Thursday during lunch at work.
is the m3 same sounds with the m50?
+Jade Pascual - it has the same programs as far as the EDS engine goes. It does not have the Radias Expansion, and it does not have the KARMA feature, and it doesn't have as many banks for sound storage.
+Karma-Lab oh i see. but interms of sounds, does the m50 has good sounds too ? for gigging?
+Karma-Lab if youll choose between the m50 and the korg triton classic. which is better
+Jade Pascual - yes, the m50 has similar sounds to the m3 and it's good for gigging - very light too. I would take an M50 over a Triton at this point because a) it's newer, and b) it has the awesome KARMA M50 Software available to go with it: karma-lab.com/km50
+Karma-Lab thank you sir. ILL GET AN M50 THEN. BECAUSE ITS CHEAPER THAN THE M3. LOL
Kronos gets better and better with KARMA
Stephen, nice demo, only demo - you're showing incredible possibilities of Karma in Oasys (and similarly in Kronos etc.) without "how make it". I'm looking for professional Video Tutorial for Karma in Oasys. Comparing our fast life with Korg Oasys Manual (aprox. 1300 pages!) Video tutorial will be the best way to "know how". I am sound designer for certain cult instruments (Roland D50, a few of VST-AU like Spectrasonics Omni, Stylus RMX), but Oasys is really complicate. I try change Karma sequences to my needs, but even MIDI OUT of Karma patterns is working very strange. I don't understand why in Oasys no direct USB MIDI connection with DAW. In standard scenario of MIDI connection are unpredictable situations, latency etc. In one word, you are great Sound Designer, producer in Karma-Lab - please make a professional Video Tutorial for Korg Oasys. especially Karma features. THX in advance.
+Roman I. Drozd - thanks for the comments! OASYS is unfortunately discontinued for awhile, but if you'd like to ask questions about various things you've mentioned, feel free to come over to the Karma-Lab Forums and the OASYS section: karma-lab.com/forum/oasys
cool steven but i wish you could have made a software for Roland FA
this just blew me away ,really I am an old timer and i remember Stephen Kay just doing some korg work then boom he did his own thing , KARMA .man it makes your keyboard come to life & then some ,kudos to Mr. Kay ,well done sir
Assume.... endless potential where the only limitation is the pilot in command.
just Outstanding !!! I placed my order , Another masterpiece !!!!! Regards, TotallyKenny
Just superb! Awesome demos of Catalyst 2 combis. Much thanks and appreciation, Stephen!
not for Korg M3 ? :(
Hello Do you need a korg m3 to use this program or can i use my midi, please Reply, Thanks
DjLeo London - You need a Korg M3. :)
Karma-Lab ahh ok man thanks for reply
I f*cking love sounds and the progressions! Awesome Stephen Kay
Hello, what midi controller do you suggest for realtime control the Motif-Rack XS?
That's not a simple question, since a lot of things need to be taken into consideration. Something with at least 61 keys, 8 assignable knobs or sliders, 8 or 16 assignable pads, assignable buttons etc. Happy to discuss it with you over at karma-lab.com/forums/yamaha
Karma-Lab How about a Nektar 88 and Steinberg CMC button boxes
There is a lot to learn on this M3...So many features..But it's awesome sound and sequencer is great..Thanks for sharing..
Wow !! that was amazing . Great stuff Jack.
What can I say it... You are the best... That is a wonderful keyboard... You know how to used inside out... Congratulation... Im trying to find a demonstration to how recording music in real time on the CD Writer that built in the Oasys also using the pads... Please by any chance do you have one demonstration video to explain how to do that Please let me know is you do.... nvillacian@aol.com
Awesome !!!! Great !!!
Just outstanding ! I was there watching this that very cold day, And what went from a very amazing , Happy liftoff . Turned into a nightmare that was hard to comprehend ! As a proud patriot myself, I feel this was just a wonderful , Tribute. From one talented New Jersey guy with a great voice. Best regards my friend, Totally Kenny
Still love playing this track on my IPhone :) its from his last album he released
