Overview of the modes
In addition to its KARMA function, this instrument
includes an extremely wide array of functionality. You
can play and edit programs and combinations, record
and play sequence data, directly play SMF files from
floppy disk, and manage disk data. These functions are
broadly divided into “modes.” KARMA Music Work-
station has six modes.

B, C, D, E and F which contain a total of 768 pro-
grams, and non-rewritable bank G (256 programs
compatible with the GM2 standard, and nine drum
programs).
