The Triton is primarily a compact keyboard and light to meet the buskers and less fortunate.

To provide an attractive price, Korg has made compromises and that starting with the manufacturing quality of the keyboard that is more like that of a toy than a full keyboard. It's been very "plastic" (the chassis is metal I can assure you).

Inside, however, there is a basic Triton with a bank's certe a little outdated but still very correct.
The sequencer is still there, it's interesting to have it at hand.
The sampling is optional and that's good because it's a bit pointless now unless it's just to load samples for the stage.

UTILIZATION

I was not too triturated in, so I will refrain from commenting on its internal use. It looks to me still quite "simple" (in Japanese simply mean complicated). I like the screen is too small compared to that used to be Yamaha.

The touch keyboard is frankly not great, it's hard to bring the expressiveness with.
Do with it like that.

SOUNDS

The sounds are not very exciting but still correct. There is a kind of artifact in the grave, that tickles the ears and say why not, it changes the neutrality Roland. Not surprisingly, the Triton will be pampered by the Hip-Hop.

The sheets are nice and easy usable, bass synths are great with this serious development. on the other hand I'm not a fan of sounds "fireworks" is fun at first but good after what we did?
The acoustic pianos are very bad, the electric pianos are ok, unfortunately the quality of the keyboard serves these sounds there.

The organ is just OK, let's say that next to a CX-3 they do not make the weight recess.
Other sounds are not bad but nothing too surprising.

I repeat again, the quality of the keyboard does a disservice to the expressivity of the Triton.

OVERALL OPINION

I have the Triton for 3 weeks. I exchanged against a Virus KC because he served me as a master keyboard, it was heavy and I wanted to change but I lost much in the quality of the touch keyboard.
As soon as I can, I offer a Clavia Nord Stage Compact.

This is a synth of compromise must be taken that way.
