Section 13: Using Karma For Live Performance (2)
1. How could I have the drummer sync to the clock being generated
by the Karma? Can the Karma generate a click “track” in
Program or Combi mode which I can assign to one of the
individual outs which will then feed the headphones of the
drummer?
In Sequencer Mode, you can assign the metronome to go out one of the
separate outputs, so that a drummer could listen to it and it wouldn't be
in your main mix: (1.6-1a) BUS Select -> Metronome. ☞ Parameter
Guide, Page 76. This isn’t possible in Combi/Program mode. In
Program mode, there’s really nothing you could do, other than drive
another external device that was producing a click track, such as a drum
machine. The drum machine would be in external sync mode, and the
Karma would be sending it MIDI Clock. You could also do this in Combi
Mode. Or in Combi mode, you could use a simple Drum Beat GE, and
assign this to play a timbre out of one of the extra outputs, and the
drummer could play along with this. When new GEs are available, I will
provide one that creates a metronome for Combi Mode, or you can create
your own.
2. Can I change the transpose of a track separately from everything
else? In Karma's sequence mode, I recorded 300 measures of a
Latin groove on track 8. I set up track 1 as a piano sound, 2 as
electric piano, 3 as guitar. That way I can use “Track Select” to
quickly change my live instrument while the sequence does its
thing. Works OK, but I realized at one point that I wanted the
piano sound to be one octave lower.
There is a Transpose value for each track:
(3.1-3) [Prm 1] - [Pitch] -> Transpose
