Great video.
Those old TRITONS, old but not obsolete.
I've had my triton le 76 key since 2002 Awesome keyboard!
Yeah I have seller's regret over mine!!
Triton LE line up Is awesome. The TR, X50 and Micro X are all amazing for their relatively small sizes
Agreed. Despite being old the Triton still holds up very well. The 48khz sound really helps I think.
I've got the Karma myself. It doesn't have sampling, but can accept PCM cards as well as the MOSS board, and naturally comes with the titular KARMA engine instead of a normal arpeggiator. It's still a very fun and versatile instrument, especially if you manage to score the aformentioned MOSS at an acceptable price.
Totally agree :) #gearfacts
I used to own the Korg Triton Classic ,and the Korg M50 both great workstations ,that one sounds great too .
Yep I always end up coming back to the Triton :) #gearfacts
Korg triton....best workstation ever.....own a 61le......and a 61 studio version and the rack....🥳
ahhh thank you for your shared enthusiasm! The Triton is STILL up there with the leaders, despite its age. And you can get them cheap! :) #gearfacts
great explanation of how to load sounds.thanx
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks. This is very helpful. I think I will buy a card and adapter.
I also have a Triton LE 61.....and still crazy about it
Yeah we will always keep our Triton!
I have the Le88 with weighted keys. Interestingly mine does not have the sampling upgrade even so though. But that’s ok, I use this keyboard for playing the keys, not for sampling. I have an external MPC X that I connect with MIDI and on the MPC X I can do sampling and sequencing and all kinds of stuff with a much smoother and more convenient interface and workflow 😊
I have the same 88 key Triton Le88. It's old but totally modern-sounding, and it's the nerve centre of my musical world! My one true keeper of a keyboard.
Thanks for good video
Thanks for watching, Sany :)
I have the TR61. Owned it since new 15 years ago and I've taken it on tour with me around the world from Australia, Japan, all of Europe and my home in the UK. Best keyboard I've ever owned and refuse to use anything but Korg. Currently debating getting a Kronos 2 as a new edition to the family but will firmly always believe these LE/TR models are unbelievably good, IF you know to use them. I've become an expert due to the countless hours spent with it haha.
Whats the name of the patch you used at the very end of this video? Was a preset combi on the LE or was it one you loaded in? Sounds great
Yeah the TR-61 is great ...I think I reviewed it way back before this was a serious channel ...so many reviews now, it's hard to remember :) # Gearfacts
I like the sounds between 10.50-11min 👍
Sorry there was so much talking in this one ...it was a very wordy topic. I tried to disperse the music throughout the video :) #gearfacts
@@gearfacts don't be sorry, you're dropping knowledge!!
@@jaymack I second that 😎👍
Great video I just bought one and the learning curve is kind of overwhelming lol. How do you hold a note for arpeggio? I can’t find the hold button. Also when you saved the sample did it overwrite the factory sample? Thx
Hey so I’m having a problem with my le. every time I split two different sounds or how ever many and save it in the combination, when I turn it off and back on it won’t appear in my combination no more. I have downloaded samples I’m not sure if it’s the smart media card or or the sample cards. Any suggestions?
I’m not sure if this model of the triton does this, perhaps give it a try, but on my M 50, I can go and play the programs right off of my SD card. Granted it doesn’t let me go through and edit every part of it like I could if I saved it to a program on board, but it will let you play the programs direct from the media.
I 'll check it out. The interface gives few options but to proceed the way it wants you to, or just back out :) #gearfacts
Planning to buy this in a pretty good price and have some questions! First of all I use the triton vst and I know how it works pretty much.
A) Are the presets targeted by category? (keybaords, organs, leads etc)
B) How easy are patch changes on the fly? Can you basicaly categorize banks as songs and change presets with the number buttons?
G) If so can a bank contain both prog and combi presets?
A: yes you can select by category B: I think you can do these things with a bit of setting up and organizing
I could only dream of ownership. Where do you get these wonderous toys. Great vid as slways
Thanks TL. It's all about buying and selling, and trying not to lose money along the way. Keeps me busy! :) #gearfacts
@@gearfacts you do it well keep up the good work. Will you feature the psr 340 it still commands high prices and I don't understand why
I owned a TR-61 for a few years which was the near-identical black-cased follow up model. It was my first big synth but I gotta say I never loved it. I found the menus a bit over-complicated, the plastic buttons a bit cheap and rattly, and the presets - which is all most people could ever figure out how play on it - just had this thin sound to them: like there were no top or bottom harmonics. I don't know if it was a Korg thing of that era..? The range and choice of presets also seemed odd - too many layered arpeggiated things which no-one would ever want. Looked pretty smart and would make a decent controller keyboard but I was happy to pass it on.
That's a shame it was disappointing. What did you end up using instead? :) #gearfacts
Does the Triton Le record sounds from other synths? Either by Line in or Midi? I have a Roland with a vocoder and would like to use that in my recordings. Thanks. Greetings from Austria.
Yes it does, but you need to have the EXB_SMPL upgrade, which is sadly really hard to find at the moment. I've made a video about it: czcams.com/video/N6PsdEnXR_U/video.html
Love your channel. I dont know anyone else doing what you do. Real world synth stuff here. Picked one up yesterday for 150 euro. No sampling and dont think id even get one, will cost more than what i paid for the unit itself. Am i right in thinking i can externally sequence up to 16 machines with it or is it just internal sequencing?
The new sounds replaces (erases) the old ones? Thanks a lot!! (Pa80 it's older than triton see wikikorg)
Yes it does. So if you want to keep that existing sound, you need to either copy to another number or load your new sound into a different number :) #Gearfacts
Another great video... hope you are ok after all the Canberra fires. I had to evacuate from the Beard Fire in Oakes Estate/ Queanbeyan (within 100 meters)
Coming soon: "Improv 4 Beginners" Series 2
with bonus "Aussie English" explained.
No 2020 CZcams yet due to #BushfireCrisis / extreme heat for several days etc.
Thanks for your understanding.
I see that the army has moved in to your area. I'm not sure what they're doing but I'm sure they have a plan of some kind. It's a shocking crisis but it's great to see that the authorities have been so on the ball with everything. Good luck to you and see you soon on the 'toob!
@@gearfacts Yes the communication hs be great throughout the crisis... although fires move so fast the only notice we got on both the Thurs and Fri was "emergency, too late to leave" but I got out anyway. Back soon mate, working on new 7 part Improv 4 Beginners series.
Hey brother your videos are still useful and interesting. Could you help me with something? How can I save timbres in some shortcut to use fast during a song? O have a le 76. I have no favorite buttom
Hmm I don't know of any short-cut. I just use the normal MENU/STORE/YES method (right hand button under the screen)
Is it possible to make patches from scratch with the triton le?
You have to start with one of the existing patches.
yes if you have the sample attachment on the back or load samples or sounds on to the smart media card.I use to have motif multi samples i made from scratch on that thing.
@@gearfacts Cant you Initialize? Just like the triton?
Please help, I have an le 76 and power supply, how do I use the keyboard ext? Do I need a speaker/amp?
You can use headphones or a set of speakers connected to the L/R speaker outputs. Even a set if simple computer speaker will be ok 👍
where can i find a smartmedia card reader like in the video
There are lots of sellers on ebay who will send one to you for free, item only costs about $5
Can you use these new sounds in the built-in 16-track Sequencer ?
Yes 👍
ive got loads of modern synths sequencers etc but when i got my hands on one of these and the micro x and started sequencing the triton via those... wow. i wouldn't sell it. the combis do all sorts of stuff they dont do on the triton when its synced to other gear and sounds right up to date. heres an example of pure triton sounds sequenced by a korg emx 2... czcams.com/video/9okZEceclt4/video.html its unrecognisable as a triton in a way. i must say though, as soon as the triton knows external sync is on by another unit it doesn't act well at all, the apps, beats wont trigger so ive had to do it the longer way round but worth it. the same thing happens with all the tritons, korg micro x etc so not sure what that is but any way
Yep, it's still one of the best sound engines you can get for a reasonable price :) #gearfacts
can you upload new sounds without using a smart sound card?
As far as I know, the only way to do it is what's shown in the video.
@@gearfacts Incorrect , most every programmable synth since the earliest days of MIDI (e.g. Yamaha DX7) can load sound patches into the synth's internal patch memory via MIDI system exclusive (aka "sysex") data. The sysex data is usually stored on a PC, and can be sent to the synth from a sequencer program (e.g. Logic, Cubase , Reaper), a sysex program (e.g. MIDI-OX), a dedicated or universal editor/librarian program (e.g. Sound Quest ), or else another keyboard synth or sampler or piece of hardware with sysex filing capability and both enough memory space and a storage medium like a floppy disk drive (e.g. hardware sequencer, dedicated hardware data filer - those used to exist).
@@ShallRemainUnknown Actually yes that’s true, he could do it that way.
LOL no, you can’t load PCM sound modules into the Triton. PCG Korg data for presets yes, PCM SIMM modules no. Hence being the Le (light edition) version. EXB-PCM expansions are for the Triton standard, Triton Rack and Triton Studio only.
Cool info ...maybe dispense with the "LOL" next time ;)
Does triton le support kross or krome sounds
No but I think it sounds better.
Yes it sounds better for western music,i am trying to load better indian sounds in Le from krome kross which has good indian patches.
Is the korg TR better than triton le?
I didn't think so. I believe the Triton can handle more effects at once.
Korg TR-keyboards (e.g. TR-61/-76/-88 , NOT the very different earlier TR-Rack) are slightly updated Triton Le units with SD cards instead of SmartMedia, a USB port, and the same 32MB base PCM sample ROM (for full patch compatibility with Triton & Triton Le) plus additional 32MB PCM ROM for more patch possibilities.
Hey which ram is that can you give the details.
Too long ago sorry, you'd have to google that one.
@@gearfacts okk.thanks.
First :)
