Linking KARMA to Programs and
Combinations
You can specify whether the KARMA settings written
to a program or combination will also be selected when
you select that program or combination, or whether the
KARMA settings will not change when you switch the
program or combination.
When the KRONOS is shipped from the factory, the
former setting is selected. You can use the latter setting
if you want to use the same KARMA settings to
generate phrases and patterns while you select and try
out different programs and combinations.

a program or combination respectively will also select
the KARMA settings that are written in that program
or combination.
