Korg does not own KARMA.... KARMA is produced under license from KARMA lab.
Next to that, KARMA has no sound engine, it uses the sounds of a dedicated Synth engine, like a KORG M3 or soon an Open Labs NEKO.
If KARMA would be created as software it would be comparable to a mix of Arpeggiator/arranger/sequencer and probably function as a VST host.
Also KARMA is acombination of a software engine that is very tightly bound to the controlls of the hardware. When producing Karma as software you loose most of the ineractivity and flexibillity that the hardware controller offers you.
