Latch not latching. What gives?

Post by rossb »

Hi
I know the manual says at least 5 times that 'when the LATCH is turned on KARMA will continue to play even after you've stopped playing the keyboard...' However, I have a few instances of combinations that don't obey this rule and although the latch button is till lit, do stop playing when I take my hand of the keys.

I seem to remember reading somewhere, perhaps on this forum, that there are exceptions to the rule but I can't for the life of me find the reference or how to force the Combi to keep playing.

Can anyone help me please?

Thanks

Ross

One thing worth checking is in the KARMA menu / Trigger tab - the Update On Release parameter needs to be unchecked, else released notes are removed from the KARMA input source.

On the same menu tab, Note Latch needs to be set to On, else the Latch switch has no effect. In Combis, the Note Latch is settable independently for each KARMA Module.

Greetings,

Ditto what VOIP mentions…

Not all Karma GE’s “loop” the generated midi. Such that a Glissando effect will stop and has an end to it. Others like bass lines or drum beats are generally programmed to cycle thru a phase or two, endlessly… And still other GE’s are set to manual advance, meaning the player has to action something to generate additional data. And still other GE’s might cutoff a module when another module starts…



[*]Which Combi’s are stopping in an unintended way?

[*]EDIT: Just saw your post on KLF, the combi you mention: Planet Vector controls the vector env when a note is held… found a brief reference on page 7 in this Korg doc: https://cdn.korg.com/us/support/downlo ... 3B#page225


PEACE
