Section Triton Studio Series Question How many sizes are there for Triton Studio? Answer Triton Studio is available in three sizes: 61 and 76-key synth-action versions, and an 88-key weighted action model. An unprecedented list of features includes more high-quality sounds, sampling into the sequencer, resampling, up to 120-note polyphony, dual arpeggiators, more expansion ports, digital I/O, an internal hard drive, more software improvements and our most user-friendly interface yet. All of which means you can go from inspiration to master, more quickly and more intuitively. Section Triton Classic Series Question How can I change the tempo on my Triton Workstation during a song? Answer First set the Tempo Mode to Auto. Now you can either record tempo changes in real time or by event edits. To record the changes in event edit first select Master Track from Track menu. Then go to Event Edit page and scroll to the measure where you want to put a tempo change. if you now INSERT tempo change event and then save the song you changes will be retained. Section Triton Classic Series Question How do I change key on my Triton Workstation during a song? Answer First record the song (all tracks) from measure 1 to 120 for example. Now go into sequencer edit mode, access the pull down menu and select the shift note feature. For this example we will be changing the key between measure 90 and 105 and then changing it back to the original value until measure 120. First set the measure start value as 90 and the measure end value as 105. Use a shift value of +1 across the entire range of the keyboard or ALL the tracks that you want to pitch shift/transpose. This shifts the note data to the key of B from Bb for measures 90 105. Now set the measure start value as 106 and the measure end value as 120. Use a shift value of -1 across the entire range of the keyboard. This will return the track to it’s original key. Section Triton Classic Series Question I’m getting no playback from my pc sequencer software when recording Triton Workstation sounds. MIDI signals record ok but no sound returns when the play button is hit ? Answer You have to be in sequence mode and the Triton will respond to MIDI messages on all 16 channels. You have to make sure that when a track on your pc is playing, its midi is routed to your PC's midi out that is connected to the midi in on Triton. Section Triton Classic Series Question I have noticed that when my Triton Workstation is connected up to my PC sequencer I lose the arpeggiator function. How can I activate the Triton arpeggiator from the sequencer? Answer You need to make sure that the Local Control is switched on in Global Mode in the Triton for the arpeggiator to work. Also, change the MIDI clock to external. Section Triton Classic Series Question I have been trying to set up my sustain pedal to work in the Triton workstation , but nothing happens when I press it. Answer If you first select Page 2 of the Global menu, you will then need to change the Damper polarity control. If it is a non-Korg damper pedal, the polarity on the
pedal itself may need to be changed. We are unable to guarantee the operation of a non-Korg product with this machine. Section Triton Classic Series Question How can I use the Time Stretch function on my Triton Workstation in sample mode. Answer Press your sample button and load in a sample you want to stretch. Press the page menu button and choose TimeStretch. You then get options as to Sustain or Slice. Choose one of these options press ok. Now you can change the sample values to match BPM/ratio etc. Alter the parameters of the sample to change its length and time. Section Triton Studio Series Question Can I use the latest Operating system on the Triton, on the Triton Studio Answer No. The Triton Studio is a different product and needs it's own O.S. to cater for it's particular internal processor and circuitry. Section Triton Studio Series Question How do I fit an EXB-PCM card? Answer Turn off the power and remove the cable. Lift the sample memory slot cover in the top left of the front panel. Remove the card from it’s packaging. You may want to touch a metal object before you touch the card to ensure there is no static charge that can disrupt the card itself. Insert the card into one of the PCM slots. *Caution – Do not put the PCM card in one of the top 3 RAM slots. At a slant, press the card firmly into the slot, and raise it to a vertical position until the catches of the slot click into the locking holes. When doing so, pushing the catches of the slot apart to the left and right will help the card sit smoothly. To remove: Push the catches of the slot apart and the card will pop out. Section Triton Classic Series Question Can I load AKAI format samples into my Triton Rack? Answer Yes. The Triton rack will accept S1000/S3000 samples. When the loaded data is then saved, it will be saved as a Korg format .KSF or .KMP file. Section Triton Classic Series Question Can a Trinity MOSS be fitted into Triton?

Section Triton Le Question Can I save the real-time control settings on my Triton LE? Answer Yes you can save the A and C options as a value on the dial, but on the B assignable option, you can only save what the dial has assigned to it and not the value of the dial. Use the utility button and write to global. Section Triton Classic Series Question How can I create original arpeggiator patterns from existing ones? Answer Select a preset e.g. noisy stabber.

Section Triton Studio Series Question Is it possible for the Triton Studio to remember my song in sequence mode after I turn it off or do you have to load them in each time you turn it on? Answer No. The Studio’s memory is only temporary so it will not recall any songs from it’s RAM after the power is lost. Section Triton Studio Series Question On the Triton Studio, is there any way to use more than one program on one track in sequence mode? Answer Yes. As long as their measures don't overlap within the same track just change the sounds with program change data at the point where you want the sound to change.
