Karma-Lab Releases New Sounds for the Korg Kronos and OASYS

by HCNews on ‎12-05-2012 07:12 PM

Karma.pngKarma-Lab introduces Reincarnated - Groove Nirvana, a new set of 32 exciting and inspiring KARMA-fied combis for the Korg Kronos and  Korg OASYS. Priced at only US$32, the sound set includes grooves  and sonic textures in a wide variety of styles, ranging from a mixture  of Hip-Hop, Dance, Electronica, Trance & Techno categories to  Ambient, Jazz, New-Age, Film Score, and World/Ethnic categories. Previously released for the M3 and M50, the set has now been brought to  the Kronos and OASYS as well, taking advantage of the multiple  synth engines and increased polyphony and effects capabilities.

Reincarnated joins Catalyst (a previously released sound set) in pushing  the KARMA function to the absolute limit. Each combi is composed of 4  complete KARMA Modules and 8 fully-voiced scenes for maximum  variability, featuring extensive control via the KARMA Realtime Controls (8 sliders, 8 switches) and the other controllers  (joystick, ribbon, vector joystick, 8 RT knobs, and 2 switches over  joystick). In addition, the Kronos version’s Drum Track has been  programmed to add an additional complimentary percussion or drum element in every combi.

Programmed by Scott Raposa and KARMA developer Stephen Kay, the set  represents hundreds of hours of work over the last year, yet is priced  at only $1 per combi. Reincarnated includes a 71-page User’s Guide that  provides meticulous documentation on each combi in addition to hundreds of tips and tricks on how to get the most out  of each Performance.

Karma-Lab president Stephen Kay states, “As the inventor of KARMA  Technology, nobody programs KARMA to the degree that we do. If you want  big, bold, full, robust KARMA combis with inspiring and intricate parts  that have 8 full scenes of completely different variations, each capable of driving the creation of new song ideas, then  these are the sets for you.”
