Hi Eric, congrats. I got my M3 in December and I'm having a blast. So 
now with the Karma and M3 and the wavestation and Cubase 4 Studio on my 
mac. I hope to put some new instrumentals up on Soundclick soon. Waiting 
in line to get some new combis for the M3.

I have Karma MW on my PC but need to transfer it to the other machine. I 
see that the Karma MW is also on the Mac but not the M3 version as 
Stephen is so busy. So I'll wait till he has that done someday 
patiently. Maybe someday I'll get an OASYS when I can scrape up the cash.
