"Karma wow nothing like it.. Mine is not for sale..."

Feature:
With the Karma feature you can create subtle nuances and even create the strumming of guitar strings

Quality:
The Keys are "plasticy" I would make sure I purchased a hard case (Flight Case) if planning to take the karma touring. (I use mine in the studio) That's about all I can gripe about with this board and its overall quality. Other than the "WEAK" and somewhat "Toy" Piano Keys.

Value:
I bought mine for 1,200 american dollars. I am positive that it is worth what I payed. I also think that it is worth the 1,500. american dollars list as of 10/01/2005

Desirability:
I dunno my chick has sex appeal. Kate Moss has sex appeal. One must mention she has much more than that. But this is a kids program. The Karma is Purple... Maroon purple.. Some web sites make it look "REDish" But there is no doubt the karma is medium (not light or dark) Purple. I guess now after mentioning that, yeah the karma is kinda sexy..

Sound:
Out of the box karma has decent sounds.. After getting a few upgrades (Expansion boards Triton/Karma) This machine Rocks.

Support:
N/A Havent needed support yet.. Website had easy instructions to download updates. I was impressed with that.

Overall:
The karma is a nice keyboard. Packed with advanced options only found on the Karma itslef. (As far as I know of no other keyboard has karma technology. ie strumming of guitar strings, runs on the keyboard, crazy arpeggios etc.) keys are a bit weak.... But overall this is a wonderful music creation device.

"Karma feind!! Gotta have it"

Feature:
more features than I will ever use.

Quality:
its korg.....quality is not an issue. Although that color man????? What were they thinking.

Value:
there is nothing else to compare this board too. It is in a class by itself. Try live prases on the fly with something else.....go ahead.

Sound:
Clean fat samples.

Support:
Only used it once with my x5dr sound module. Very satisfied with there product knowledge and responces.
