104 If “Fixed Note Mode” is set to T rigger All T ones , playing a single note on the keyboard will cause the rhythm pattern to play . If “Fixed Note Mode” is set to T rigger As Played , playing a single note on the keyboard will cause only the kick ( T one00 ) to play .
105 Basic functions The note timing of the arpeggiator will depend on the setting of its “Key Sync.” check box. If this is checked , the arpeggiator will operate at the timing that you play the first note-on after having released all notes.
106 Ef fects settings The effect section of the TRIT ON provides five insert effects , two master effects , one master EQ (ster eo 3- band EQ), and a mixer that controls the r outing of these components. Y ou can choose from 102 types of full-digital ef fects for each insert effect, and fr om 89 types for each master effect.
107 Basic functions The insert effects, master ef fects, and master EQ have the same structure in all modes, but the r outing set- tings will determine how the oscillators of a program or the timbres of a combination or track of a song will be sent to each insert effect or master ef fect.
108 “Send 1”, “Send 2”: Set the send levels to the master effects. For this example, set this to 127 . 8 Select the IFX1–5 tabs, and set the parameters for each of the selected effects. For details on the parameters of each effect ( ☞ p.155 in the Parameter Guide ).
109 Basic functions has passed through each insertion ef fect. If effects ar e chained, the settings after the last IFX in the chain will be used. “Send 1” and “Send 2” adjust the amount of master effect that is applied to the signal that has passed through the IFX.
110 to L000 ). When you ar e inputting a monaural audio source, you will normally set this to C064 . “BUS (IFX/Indiv .) Select”: In the same way as for the oscillator of a program, specify the bus to which the external audio source fr om AUDIO INPUT jacks 1 and 2 will be sent.
111 Basic functions MIDI applications MIDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, and is a world-wide standard for exchanging various types of musical data between electronic musical instruments and computers.
112 Incoming MIDI data will be handled with settings equivalent to “Key T ranspose” 0 , “V elocity Curve” 4 , and “After T ouch Curve” 3 . • When controlling the TRITON’s tone generator from an external MIDI device, select “PostMIDI.
113 Basic functions Connecting an Apple Macintosh T o connect an Apple Macintosh with the TRITON, you will need a separately sold AG-002B connecting kit (cable and Korg MIDI Driver softwar e).

114 [...] indicates hexadecimal notation MIDI channels MIDI messages can be exchanged when the transmit- ting and receiving devices ar e set to the same MIDI channel. MIDI uses sixteen channels, numbered 1–16 . The way in which channels are handled will dif fer depending on the mode.
115 Basic functions Program mode • In Program P0: Play, program change and bank select messages are transmitted and received on the global MIDI channel.
116 • In Combination and Sequencer modes, the P3: MIDI Filter settings allow transmission/reception of control changes to be individually turned on/off for each timbre/track.
117 Basic functions sages to create changes in dynamics within the musical data of the song. ( ☞ p.31, 49 in the Parame- ter Guide “V olume” - “MIDI) By using the universal exclusive Master V olume mes- sage, you can adjust the overall volume without changing the volume balance between timbres or tracks.
118 • In Combination and Sequencer modes, transmission/reception of this message can be turned on/off independently for each timbre/track ( ☞ p.35, 57 in the Parameter Guide P3: MIDI2 tab “Enable Foot Pedal/Switch”). Ribbon controller (CC#16) [Bn, 10, vv] This message will be transmitted when the TRITON’s ribbon controller is operated.
119 Basic functions Sustain level (CC#70) [Bn, 46, vv] Attack time (CC#73) [Bn, 49, vv] Decay time (CC#75) [Bn, 4B, vv] LFO 1 speed (CC#76) [Bn, 4C, vv] LFO 1 depth (pitch) (CC#77) [Bn, 4D, vv] LFO 1 delay (CC#78) [Bn, 4E, vv] These messages are transmitted when assign the above CC# to the REAL TIME CONTROLS [1]–[4] knobs and operate them.
120 Y ou can use the universal exclusive Coarse T une message to adjust the overall tuning that corre- sponds to the Global P0: Basic Setup “T ranspose” parameter .
121 Basic functions Master fi ne tuning [F0, 7F , nn, 04, 03, vv , mm, F7] (A value of 8192 [mm, vv=40, 00] is center , 4096 [mm, vv=20, 00] is -50 cents, and 12288 [mm, vv=60, 00] is +50 cents.) When this is received, the Global P0: Basic tab “Master T une” parameter will be set.
122 Playing the TRITON multi-timbrally from an external device The TRITON can be connected to an external device and played multi-timbrally in the following ways. • MIDI messages from the external device can play a combination (8-part multi-timbral performance).
123 Basic functions • If you set Global P1: MIDI “MIDI Clock” to External MIDI or External PCI/F , the start of recording and the tempo etc. will all be under the control of the external sequencer. Since the two devices will be synchronized during the recording process, measure divisions etc.
124 Song Play mode • In Song Play mode, the TRITON can playback SMF data directly from a disk or external SCSI device (if the separately sold EXB-SCSI option is installed); i.e., the data will be played back as it is being read, and does not need to be loaded into memory.
125 Basic functions Other functions When you play the TRITON together with other instruments, or along with music on a CD or tape, you may need to adjust the tuning so that the pitch matches. T o adjust the tuning, use Global P0: Basic tab “Master T une.
126 5 Set the “Foot Switch Polarity” to the polarity of the foot switch you have connected. If you have connected a Korg PS-1 pedal switch, set this to (–) KORG Standard. If the polarity is not set correctly , the pedal will not function appropriately .
127 Basic functions Y ou can specify the function of the [SW1] and [SW2] keys ( ☞ p.217 in the Parameter Guide ). The functions of the [SW1] and [SW2] keys are set independently for each program, combination, and song. In Sampling mode and Song Play mode, the functions of these keys are set for the entir e mode.
