Section 1.7 KARMA Run Solo GE Select

Creating "break’s" is fantastic fun and can be achieved in many ways: load Combi B001TineyHarmonic -Y and get things going with a lower octave note or chord then action the joystick down (towards you) this STOPS module A and B, nice, but maybe you want something a bit different especially if you are automating with external sequencers. Switching the SOLO function at different intervals on Module A keeps all modules running but creates a different musical effect. Try switching rapidly for some awesome custom breaks. Or do the same on Module B for some funky 4 beat bass walking then get the whole band jamming again without missing a beat.

Try this with Combi B039 Zone Groove and play lower octave chord to set things into a groovy motion. Now SOLO that awesome Bass on Module C but change chords as you do it, now un-SOLO play the original chord or another… Walk that Solo'd Bass line for a few beats with different chords before getting the band back into the groove…fun for the whole family!!!

If you have any of the added Combi's from Chemistry available, endless fun is to be had. The Combi C046 Organic Funk made for some great SOLO'ing and Performance modulation creativeness. Solo the Module B Bass line to create some jabs and switch out the GE by using the GE select SysEx messages on the fly. And even go the complete opposite direction by selecting Combi C017 JLP's Choice and SOLO all the Modules and then switch the SOLO on theModule C Bass line off/on for some subtle Bass inverted jabs.

Another great use of a multi SysEx control messages makes it easy to create a shredding SOLO and then fold back into the groove. Load Combi B016 Drug "HIGH" which is already full of energy, now set up a multi message button on your external controller or automation script which SOLO's Module C AND switches the Module GE to 648. Now switch back and forth for an awesome Lead synth break variation, again without missing a beat.

PEACE
