The Triton is a version of the famous Allgemeine Korg Triton workstation.

Thus, the heart of the Triton, namely the bank of 32 MB of basic sounds (over 800 samples) and the system of synthse HI (Hyper Integrated) is identical in all respects the original (as Karma parailleurs). This ensures, in particular, a compatibility patch (also some effects - see later) between the big Triton and the MODEL and, more importantly, the same sound quality!

on the other hand, there is an insert effect instead of 5, 2 gnraux effects and EQ on them are tjs Submitted. The sampler is not native, but is available as an expansion card - it's the only option. The Ribbon Controller is also t cut.

Difference found some other, less room for such patches, the quality of the touch keyboard, no touch screen (but is it a - ???), etc..

The brushed aluminum front team a notch graphics, lots of buttons and just 4 potentiomtres is trs 'clse'. It seems to be moving against the tide, surrounded by new keyboard more like the face of young teens that machines make music.

At the rear, there are 4 audio outputs (2 x Stereo), the traditional three MIDI connectors, jacks for pedals and sustain and expression. The power supply is ensured by an external tranfo.

UTILIZATION

Although one may think, these days, full of knobs that it is necessary to edit the sounds, the Triton Le is doing effectively. The notch graphics and software interface are property trs conus and relatively intuitive To create or modify its utmost desire.

For live, the fair prsence potentiomtres 4 (3 functions per button) and the absence of the Ribbon Controller does not make for powerful particulirement CONTRL sounds in real time. Fortunately it is possible to assign many features these four knobs.

I can not judge the Operating Your Sequencer functions, having never used.

SOUNDS

L o bt hurts, it's at the sound!

The sounds are, so to speak, gloves, grandiose. They push the crativit they dveloppent a feeling of well-being, power against the Machine. Although sr, all is not perfect and there for every taste. But probably everyone will find happiness.

Mode 'combination', which combines up to eight programs Layer or Split, and the double arpgiatteur adds to the pleasure of playing, 'patch' (read by the CRER sounds' and not play with jacks in modular).

Although the Triton The possde the same wave as his dad, it seems that the Sound Designer Korg sounds guided factory to a more 'Dance', while the rpondant other audiences. For fans of more traditional styles, it will then dive into the machine and edit new patches or simply Tlcharger the Internet.

OVERALL OPINION

The interface of dpouille potentiomtres, there is no possibility of expansion (except the sampler) and Ribbon Controller (DSOL more) ... are only dtails face the quality of its sounds, its effects, its arpgiatteur ... This machine dveloppe crativit and inspires the respect of its kind.

Some criticize the keyboard. Yes, it's lightweight and a keyboard seemed a bit 'cheap' - the same as the pitch wheel. But then there is the version 88 keys with touch heavy for the most demanding (and least flexible ... everything is matter of habit).

Let us not forget also that the Triton is the class of Workstations in the CATEGORY! So do not be confused with a true and synthtiseur esprer a same approach to bte!

In the Triton The résumé is to find the sound quality and possibility of edition of the Triton for a price much more affordable ... No more! But so is dj ...

Ainis, I suggre those looking for a versatile machine and user-friendly, powerful and simple. I suggre those seeking a high quality trs sound and who are tired of these grains typical of Roland or Yamaha (as recognizable). I suggre those who will use it mainly for its sound and its possibilities of publishing and of inception, but do not need a workstation hyper complte (although the Triton The dj is not bad in the genre). Last but not least, I suggre those seeking the best quality at the best price!

Not to be missed!
