Hey, Steve,
   Thanks for that.  Anyone using KARMA technology for music creation 
certainly needs to check out Karma Lab products.  As you pointed out, 
they are top shelf.  Honestly, I am as anxious as you to get my 
collections out, but the "boss" insists on high quality production; 
and rightly so.

I like your list of equipment.  I kept my JD800 and 990 as well.  Add 
to that the OASYS, M3, Karma, V-synth XT, and R8.  That's plenty 
enough for me for now.

Stay tuned to Karma Lab Forums for release information, dates etc. on 
Catalyst.

Cheers,
Eric
