However, you're not comparing the same thing. The Motif XS / XF have NO Karma function on board, whatsoever. External software, requiring a computer, is needed to add the Karma function | I know!! I said "users from a DIFFERENT keyboard manufacturer will benefit" from Karma 3.0! It's irrelevant to me if Karma will run from a computer. The main thing is: THEY will have it, WE will not!!

Why in the world are they putting fully weighted keys on the 73?? And yes, semi-wighted 76 is something I always wished for. E0 to G6, just like Kurzweil!!

Still got no clue why they didn't implement KARMA 3.0 in the first place if it was avaialble..
The only reason i can think of is that it would have delayed the Release of KRONOS. |
this also explains why they left in that old sequencer rather than using the new-and-improved M3 version... I am certainly HOPING that these things will be coming down the road, once they've had the time to implement them. | That's exactly what I meant!! We CAN wait, but we need the PROMISE!

Let me be the first name you put on your "Motif XF for 1 Euro" list | Evidently, you're just trying to dishearten me and then exploit my emotional instability in order to get your Motif. Well, you won't!!! _________________ Karma Music Workstation, RME Fireface UC, Cakewalk Sonar X1

I'm convinced than Korg should have their engineers to work with Stephen to bring Karma V3 on the Kronos...
But don't forget one thing, and I don't want to diminish Stephen's work, but:
Motif XF doesn't HAVE the Karma... you need a computer to run the application which midi-controls the Motif XF. The Karma V3 isn't integrated in the Motif XF OS at all...
Stephen did a great job and probably the best he can from his side, but Yamaha didn't include the Karma at all in the Motif XF OS. Korg did it... So, yeah, there's not the new version, but it's easier to modify and evolve a software running on a computer only, than re-programming the whole OS of a keyboard.
At least, the Kronos doesn't need anything else to run the Karma, which is perfectly integrated in the Kronos... So, just give the guys some time to talk and see together what they can bring to us, and I'm sure we will get some very exciting news... Until then, the Karma V2 is already very powerful and a lot of things can be done... (Just look on the Oasys or M3).
My 2 cents,
Phil |

I presume that Yamaha have paid for the development of Karma 3 as well as for the adaptation of Karma for their Motif range, so can you expect Karma 3 to be released in a Korg synth? |

That's not how it worked. I've been developing KARMA 3.0 for the last few years myself. I will make money from the sale of the software. Yamaha has no exclusivity at this time. _________________ Stephen Kay - KARMA Developer • Karma-Lab - karma-lab.com

In that case, it will refrain me from purchasing the Kronos, and my stage gear will be: Laptop + Yamaha Motif XF6. _________________ Karma Music Workstation, RME Fireface UC, Cakewalk Sonar X1 |

Hi Stephen ... will it run like Karma Triton MW? And if so then can we expect the ver3 s/w to be able to run with the Triton as well? _________________ V Narayan

Similar.

No, considering v2 doesn't even work with the Triton. KARMA Triton and KARMA MW are v1.x. _________________ Stephen Kay - KARMA Developer • Karma-Lab - karma-lab.com
