Note: When you play, the drum sounds are now being triggered across the whole keyboard. This is because of the original settings
copied from the drum Program
12. Press [F4] (KeyT), and view the settings for KeyThru, where you can set each KARMA module to sound or not
sound, from IN, or OUT of its assigned Zone.
13. Cursor to and highlight Module “A In” (left side of display), and then rotate the DIAL to un-check the box. This sets
KARMA so that the drum notes will not play as you strike the keys. Try playing in the lower range of the keyboard

Advanced Combi-Recording Tips
Since we are not actually using all sixteen tracks of the sequencer it’s best to not leave them all enabled for recording. By
using only the number of tracks you actually need you’ll have more note memory available per track. So here’s the more
detailed steps to ensure you maximize your available note memory.
1. After Step 6 from above, do the following before Step 7:
2. Press [F2] (Prog 8) and Cursor to highlight “REC” on Track 5. ç Press the Value key to set it to “PLAY”.
3. Repeat this process for tracks 6-8, and then press [F3] (Prog..16) and repeat to set tracks 9-16 to “PLAY”.
4. For other Combis, you determine which tracks you need to record on by pressing the MENU key, and then pressing
[F6] to highlight “KARM”.
