Well the Virus will definitely give you some dirty sounds, especially with 
the new Moog filter.  However, it's sort comparing apples to oranges IMO. 
Th Virus is a VA synth, while the Karma is  ROMpler with a VERY nice 
interactive arp feature.  The Virus is certainly a lot easier to program 
than the Karma, but it's also limited in the types of sounds you can make, 
just by it's very nature.  You're not going to be able to play a guitar or 
piano patch on the Virus for instance, so if you use a lot of 'real' 
instrument sounds, you're going to be disappointed in that regard.

I've used a lot of Korg products (my first keyboard was a Korg 
workstation), and I know the Karma pretty well too (was going to get one 
last year), so if you'd like me to compare certain features, feel free to 
ask.

I know Realm uses one. Anyway I have a Korg Karma. It is nice, has 
way too many features for me personally. But wihtout using outboard 
effects such as guitar stompboxes and preproduction filters. The 
sounds aren't dirty enough for my taste. I haven't had much 
experience with the Virus, but I would like to trade my Karma for a 
Virus KC or even a desktop or XL rack.

Do think this is worth it or should I keep my karma?

Thanks all,
Greg
