KORG TRITONLE61 DetailsThe Triton LE61 -- Ahhhh...the Triton. Now that's a keyboard that brings a smile to our face. They sound great, they work well, and they're used, it seems, by everyone! It has become a "standard" in the keyboard industry. The only problem is the price. At least that WAS a problem. Take a look at the Triton Le...it's all that's good about the Triton Classics without the high price tag! In fact, these things could possibly be the best synth value available. I'll tell you about it. It starts with your choice of keyboard size, either 61 (Korg TRITON LE61) or 76 keys (TRITON Le76). Both keyboards are matched to the same sound engine and sequencer. Besides the physical keyboard, the Triton Le gives you pitch and modulation control, and four assignable knobs for expression. The sounds! This is where the Triton Le shines. Tons of sounds, ranging from pianos and strings to drums and analog synth sounds make the Triton useful for many applications. Combination sounds make use of the arpeggiator, which gives you beats, grooves and accompaniments to use in your music, or to simply have fun. That actually is one of the neat things about the Triton, and that it can make some cool music right out of the box without dialing in a ton of settings. And many of the preset Combinations are inspiring! If you do want to make your own music, which most of us do, the built-in sequencer is up to the task. A 200,000 note, 16 track, 200 song sequencer awaits complete with full editing. A handy Cue feature makes live use easy as you can cue up to 99 songs together to play, making it easy to gather up a song during live play. New to sequencers? Korg has added a number of song templates that you can load into the sequencer, which greatly reduces the time needed to set up the board for recording. When you're finally done with a song, storage is via SmartMedia. And finally, sampling. This is a feature that is standard in the Triton Classics, but seems to be omitted in the Triton Le. Not so...add the optional EXB-SMPL expansion to your LE, and you'll have a full blown sampler complete with a SCSI interface that allows connectivity to external hard drives and CD-ROMs. Basically, when it comes right down to it, the Triton Le IS a full blown synth workstation at a "lite" price. It DOES sound just like the big brother Tritons, and will make the same impact in your recordings or live sound. Check out the Triton Le specs in detail: TRITON Le, the Lean, Mean Music Workstation The TRITON Le Music Workstation distills all the best features of its namesake into a streamlined, cost-effective package. Available in 61, 76 and 88 -key versions, the TRITON Le inherits the main functionality of the TRITON and features an interface that even entry-level users will find comfortable. The TRITON Le 88 features Korg’s top of the line 88-note graded-hammer action (RH2). To complement this action, the TRITON Le 88 also features our new 16MB stereo Concert Grand Piano sample set. TRITON Le and TRITON share the same sophisticated HI (Hyper Integrated) synthesis system, a tone generator acclaimed by professionals throughout the world. Loaded with High Quality TRITON Sound Data The TRITON Le’s extra-large 32 Mbyte PCM ROM (borrowed from the TRITON, of course) is packed with 425 multisamples and 413 drum samples. They cover a broad palette of instruments ranging from indispensable standards like piano, guitar, brass, strings and tuned percussion to the most modern synth sounds that are perfect for dance grooves. The TRITON Le 88 also offers an additional 16 Mbyte stereo Concert Grand Piano sample set for a total of 48 Mbyte of PCM ROM. High-quality 48-kHz sampling ensures that every detail of every sound is richly preserved. Exciting New Sounds, Plus Many TRITON Classics The Korg TRITON Le features both high-quality sounds selected from TRITON’s preload data and an assortment of new Programs and Combinations voiced especially for the instrument. In addition to its 448 onboard programs (64 program locations are also available for your own sound creations/edits),128 programs and 9 drum kits (compatible with the GM Level 2 sound map) are included, allowing the TRITON Le to be GM compatible. The new music workstation also contains 384 Combinations, each consisting of up to eight Programs. These Combis include richly layered sounds, splits, velocity layers and controller-assigned combinations that will give your music guaranteed impact. You can also customize the TRITON Le’s Programs, Combinations and drum kits – or create your own – and overwrite them into the 512 programs/384 combinations/24 drum kits in the workstation’s internal memory. All of these can be backed up onto SmartMedia cards, an external hard drive or removable media drive (if the optional EXB-SMPL Sampling Upgrade board is installed) to create enormous libraries of your own, personal sounds. Four-Part Effects Section for Studio-Quality Sound The TRITON Le provides one stereo insert effect, two master effects plus a master EQ (stereo 3 band) and a mixer section that controls their routing. With 89 different effects types, it delivers the same high-quality processing found in the TRITON – including realtime modulation of many effect parameters and the ability to sync’ to MIDI Clock or to the internal sequencer. Effects can be set for each Program, Combination and Song, enabling you to perfect your sound down to the last detail and without the need for any additional gear. Fully-Featured 16-track Sequencer for All-in-One Music Production A full-fledged 16-track sequencer with a capacity of up to 200,000 notes and 200 songs is built in, and delivers the same level of functionality found in the TRITON and KARMA Music Workstations. You can record in realtime or step time, and a host of powerful editing tools are provided. The Cue List lets you assemble your song from separate elements (Verse, Chorus, Break, etc.), and even convert them back into a single song for further recording or editing. Powerful features allow consecutive playback, changes in structure, and rearranging the sections of your song. One hundred and fifty preset drum patterns and 100 user patterns, a Track Loop function that lets you play back specified measures of a track as a loop, and even a Template Song function (16 presets and 16 user memories) that contains program and effect setups appropriate for various styles of music, all make music production fast, easy and efficient. Your sequence data can be saved as SMF format 0 or 1, making it simple for you to exchange data with other sequencers or sequencing software. Data can be saved or exchanged via SmartMedia. Data can also be saved or exchanged via SCSI devices when the optional EXB-SMPL Sampling Upgrade is installed. Dual Arpeggiator and RPPR Functions Inherited from TRITON The TRITON Le provides two powerful polyphonic arpeggiators that can be used to create intricate and expressive pitched patterns or drum grooves. Two hundred and five patterns are provided (5 Preset/200 editable), with 16 User locations available for your own creations. You can use one arpeggiator in Program mode, and two arpeggiators in Combi and Sequencer modes, and you can even record the arpeggiators into the internal sequencer. Korg’s unique RPPR function allows you to trigger sequenced patterns from individual keys on the keyboard for cool DJ style performances. High-Capacity SmartMedia for even Greater Convenience The TRITON Le sports a SmartMedia slot to accommodate compact and high-capacity SmartMedia, allowing you to exchange or backup large amounts of data easily. Imagine storing nearly 90 floppy disks worth of Program, Combi, Sequence and sample data on a card the size of a cracker, with almost no load time! SmartMedia sizes up to 128 Mbyte are supported, and data can easily be exchanged with a computer via readily available adapters commonly used with digital cameras. You can also load samples into a Triton Le using a SmartMedia card. Click here for more info. You’re in Control The TRITON Le provides a joystick, two assignable switches, and four realtime control knobs, and lets you use these for Alternate Modulation Sources to apply modulation to LFO and filters etc., to dynamically control effect parameters or to control the arpeggiators. Finding sounds on the TRITON Le is a breeze. A dedicated [CATEGORY] key brings you to an easy interface for finding Programs and Combinations quickly and easily. This ‘category selection’ method is used not only for selecting sounds, but also when selecting oscillator waveforms and effect algorithms. The [AUDITION] key allows you to preview Programs using a selection of musically-appropriate riffs – a great way to get to hear the TRITON Le in action. If you own a Korg Triton Music Workstation or Rack (or you're just
thinking about getting one), now there's a version of KARMA Software for you,
too! KARMA Triton gives you complete access to the same KARMA technology used
in the award-winning KARMA Music Workstation. All you need is a Triton Classic,
Studio, Rack or LE and a PC/Mac, and you can take advantage of the cutting
edge in algorithmic musical effect generation. All without turning "purple" with
envy. For more information visit, http://www.karma-lab.com.
