The Korg KARMA music workstation was released in 2001 as a specialised member of the Korg Triton family. KARMA stands for Kay's Algorithmic Real-time Music Architecture.[5][6] The unit features up to 62 note polyphony[7] and is 16-part multitimbral. Its sound engine is based on the Korg Triton workstation,[8] although it has fewer features.[9]
Construction[edit]
The center section is made of brushed aluminum, and the side cheeks are constructed from plastic.[10]
Sequencer[edit]
The unit also features a 16-track sequencer with a maximum storage of 200,000 events and 200 songs[11]
Drum kits[edit]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
