KARMA SWITCHES 1–8, SCENE 1–8 switches
Parameters useful for controlling the phrase or pattern
are already assigned to the KARMA CONTROLS 1–8
sliders, KARMA SWITCHES 1–8, and SCENE 1–8
switches. You can operate these controllers to create a
wide range of changes in the phrase or pattern that’s
playing.
1. Access the Program P0: Play– KARMA GE page.
The lower part of the display shows the names of
the sliders and switches that are assigned in this
program. In the pre-loaded programs, the KARMA
CONTROLS sliders and KARMA SWITCHES have
already been assigned.
2. Operate the front panel KARMA CONTROLS 1–8
sliders and KARMA SWITCHES 1–8.
The pattern or phrase will change accordingly.
You can also turn the switches on/off by pressing
them in the display. You can operate the sliders by
selecting them and then using the VALUE controller
to adjust the value.
The type or value of the parameter being controlled
by the sliders and switches is shown in the KARMA
Module Info “KARMA Value” field. This lets you
see how the parameters are being affected by your
slider or switch operations.
The saved value is shown at the lower right of each
slider or switch.
3. Use the front panel SCENE 1–8 switches to choose
a scene.
The sliders and switches will change to the settings
that were saved in the scene you chose.
Each of the eight scenes contains the values of
sliders 1–8 and switches 1–8. By pressing a SCENE
1–8 switch to choose a scene, you can instantly recall
settings for the eight sliders and eight switches.
Even if you switch scenes, the changes you make
using sliders 1–8 and switches 1–8 are remembered
until you select another program. When you write a
program, your slider and switch settings are saved
in the respective scene 1–8.

watch the sliders and switches in the screen, or you can
