Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the M3. To help you get the most out of your new instrument,
please read this manual carefully.
Main features
M3 Editor and M3 Plug-In Editor are applications for Macintosh or Windows that allow you
to edit the M3’s EDS programs, RADIAS programs (if the EXB-RADIAS is installed), combi-
nations, songs, KARMA settings, effects, and global settings.
The M3 Editor is a stand-alone editor.
The M3 Plug-In Editor is an editor that is compatible with the VST, Audio Units, or RTAS for-
mats. It lets you use the M3 just like a plug-in instrument from within your DAW (Digital
Audio Workstation) software or other host application.
