Re: Digest Number 1782 - edit Drum Kits in Global Mode

Hi Folks,
   As you can see, heading over to Karma Lab Forums (KLF) is 
definitely a smart move to gain indepth technical assistance by the 
experts.

If you haven't already visited, bookmarked, and registered at KLF, 
you are missing out on Karma support big time.  

Here is a link to KARMA LAB FORUMS
