Korg Triton Sound Demo No Talking

[@geoffk777]

Triton Racks are some of Korg's best-sounding digital gear, and they are a steal nowadays, with decent units costing only $250-$300. The sounds here seem a little thin, but that is just a recording anomaly. In person, they are fat, with solid bass. The MOSS physical modeling board is a great addition, but these are rare and expensive, and can easily cost over $1000 (much more than the Triton itself). Make sure that the display and main selector knob work properly, as both of these tend to fail over time. Check the floppy also, as this is used to save and load patches. In general, they are quite well-built and reliable, though. Korg recently introduced a Triton VST. This includes all of the expansion board sounds, and it is very close to the original in how it sounds. But it costs as much as a used Triton Rack and doesn't include the MOSS board sounds. It's a close call whether the VST or original is preferable, but either one is worth the money.

Hey that's a classic now, congrats! Pretty sweet to have it in a rack and it looks like a nice value.

Or you could by the M3 which has some amazing pad/ambient sounds. It’s newer than the Triton and has the ability to run the Radias card too.

Very nice.

Every artist from A to Z had this in the studio in the 2000s

Thanks for the demo. Is the rack the exact same as the famous triton 88 just without the keys? I’m looking to buy a triton for all those hip hop sounds from the 2000’s and can save some money if they’re in the rack.

As far as the sound engine goes yes this will pretty much give you the same sound quality. I'm sure there are subtle differences between each model but not enough to make a difference in a mix.

I have Triton Extreme w / Moss board

[@PureAmbientDrone]

I've been looking for that board but I can't find it anywhere

[@odnilniloc]

@@PureAmbientDrone Quite rare nowadays and when they do pop up they are quite pricey. Around 5-600 euros or dollars seems to be the current going rate. I would be hesitant to pay that much for an expansion board though.

@@odnilniloc I got a GREAT deal on this unit and its LOADED with EXTRAS!

[@ConwayBob]

Whoa! Just when I thought I was about all Korgged out, you spring this amazing beast on us. How long have you had it, James?

[@PureAmbientDrone]

A few days! SYNTH ON BUDDY!
