The allround workstation. I use the Triton as a central piece in my studio: sound module, sampler, midi-controller... It has a touch screen, which is extremely handy when it comes to workflow. The slider and wheel can also be used to quick navigate through the menu. The arp function is also very good and several knobs, a slider, and the X/Y joystick can be assiged to modulate just about every parameter within a sample.

Price paid: $1650 USD

UTILIZATION

Its very easy to use. I never used the manual to start out with I just jumped right into creating music and later read about further features that might be useful.

SOUNDS

The sounds are ok on the Triton. To create a unique sound on the triton effects or synthesis can be used. Either one may be very time consuming. There are many sounds that sound similar and for my purposes are not very useful.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought it used. No repairs. Once or Twice I had some problems when saving a larger sample on a floppy disk but that might have been due to the floppy disk and not the Triton. It is well manufactured and people use it for live gigs so it has to be durable.

I would not be making music without it at this point. It has served me as a teaching tool and also as a way to express myself.
