Re: Re: Hi Dance Exreme EXB

Hi eric
   
  
thanks for the email.
   
  I'm still not 100% clear on the combis.  Because I can only load combis into Banks  d and f and I already have bank d filled with Chemistry I & II and half of bank f filled with reincarnation, were i to purchase your set of combis, i wouldn't be able to load them without replacing either chemistry or reincarnation right?  so I would never be able to access your combis and the chemistry/reincarnation combis in the same session

          Hi Tricky,
You should have my reply to your email by now, but I'll just add a 
few ideas here as well.

Anyone who has more than a few combi collections for the Karma needs 
to develop a PCG and bank management routine. 

First and foremost is the practice of ALWAYS backing up your work, 
edits, etc. on a regular basis. After every work session, I do 
exactly. Some of us, including me, had to learn the lesson of lostand 
gone forever sounds the hard way. And ALWAYS back up your work or 
3rd party collections not only to floppy disk, but store them in 
named folders within a "Karma" folder on your computer hard drive.

Next, learn to swap/substitute, overwrite pcgs by continuing 
to "open" them till you can see what bank they're destined to. You 
can change this direction. Don't forget that if you have backed up 
PCGs to disk, you can always reload them.

Never, ever overwrite factory programs or combis. The best 3rd party 
developers use the factory programs within their combis, so 
overwriting these will result in weird sounds. There are ONLY 2 
locations that you can drop 3rd party or your own program banks into: 
C and D. Don't put them anywhere else. As for EXB MOSS programs, the 
will only load to bank F. Now, for combis banks, you should load 
them ONLY to C, D, or F (yes, non-MOSS combis can go here too).

Having said all that, you really need to be careful loading 3rd party 
GEs and 3rd party drum kits. Make absolutely sure you do not 
overwrite the factory presets or you'll end up with a mess.

Hope that helps for now, folks; and if you haven't registered over at 
Karma Lab Forums, http://www.karma-lab.com/forum/index.php?s= you owe 
it to yourself and your Karma to do so asap.

Cheers,

them?
