RE: Re: Karma's EG's and moss osc wave shaping questions.

Lately my Karma has been collecting a lot of Moss. Haven't been using it
much lately. Been looking at the M3 and am very impressed. 

My question is, I don't really need any more keyboards. So, how does the
controller portion of the M3 work, without the keyboard? Does it work
similar to a Triton rack unit? Or is it better to have the complete
keyboard?

Thanks

Tom

Hi!
I finally got around to installing my MOSS but haven't fired it up 
yet. Here is a link that may be helpful and there are some programs 
to download by people who seem to be getting a lot out of the MOSS:
www.korgforums.com

Not sure if www.karma-lab.com may also have some stuff.

Cheers,
Wayne
