Gulliver Posted September 20, 2002 Posted September 20, 2002 Does anybody have this module in his/her arsenal? How it sounds? (I assume it's a keyless equivalent of the Korg Trinity. Right?) ... Just looking for a bride to my MR Rack. I am back.
burningbusch Posted September 20, 2002 Posted September 20, 2002 I had one for a short while but I picked up a Triton and then sold it. I'm not all that familiar with the Triton, but I think you're right in that the sounds were probably all derived from it. I remember the brass being very good. As was the jazz guitar. There was one bass that I loved, Knocker Bass. It is the most unassuming bass you'll ever hear but it fit so nicely into mixes where you want the bass felt but not heard. I even sampled it and tried to reproduce it on other synths, but nothing sounded quite the same as the original. I seem to recall that the programming is limited. The displayed is large but still not a lot of fun to program. I don't know how well it would stack up against the current crop of 1U space rack synths like the XV-5050. If I could find one cheap I'd pick it up just to get my Knocker Bass back. Busch.

The rack version of the Triton is called Triton Rack. I own both of these. TR-Rack is a nice-sounding rack unit. Programming from the front panel is crippled. For some reason, Korg decided not to include all the parameters on the front panel interface, only some "basic" ones. However, the unit is fully programmable via sysex, so if you have the right editor (SoundDiver, for instance), you can fully program it. It has all the exact same parameters as a Trinity. The Triton Rack is fully programmable from the front panel.
burningbusch Posted September 20, 2002 Posted September 20, 2002 My mis-speak. It should have read: "I'm not all that familiar with the TRINITY, but I think you're right in that the sounds were probably all derived from it." Busch
Bucktunes Posted September 21, 2002 Posted September 21, 2002 Also, the TR rack has extra wave ROM and patches that weren't included in the Trinity keyboard, possibly as consolation for the fact that editing is a PITA. The synth engine is identical to the keyboard, though. Peace all, Steve ><> Steve
