KVR Audio

I was shown the Karma engine in the Oasis and was pretty blow away. That type of quick semi random beat creation process is fresh. I was just wondering if anyone here has a lead on anything that might come close in a vst.

I'm familiar with both of the Karma technology boards. The only VST that I know that even remotely approaches these is ADD from MESA+ (they have a forum here on KVR). ADD is basically a 8 channel pattern based sequencer/arpeggiator welded onto a dedicated rompler synth. ADD is still quite one-dimensional and has a long way to go to approach the Karma technology, but with additional development, it could be a useful alternative.

Thanks for getting back to me on this one, I will check out ADD for sure.

Also some of the Reaktor ensembles that have midi outs have quite sophisticated semi algorithmic sequencing/arp type capabilities - especially a few of Ernest Meyer's creations. For example:

REAKTOR! Sooooo obvious! Have it installed on the drive right now. Thanks for reminding me

is there an arp that emulates the korg karma/oasis arp?
