Features of sampling on the
TRITON STUDIO
• You can perform 48 kHz 16-bit linear mono or stereo
sampling.
• The TRITON STUDIO is shipped with 16 Mbytes of
sample memory (RAM) and an internal hard drive.
When sampling, data is written into either sample
memory or the internal hard drive.
The 16 Mbyte sample memory (RAM) allows approxi-
mately 2 minutes 54 seconds of mono sampling (or
approximately 1 minute 27 seconds of stereo sam-
pling). By installing 72-pin SIMM boards, you can
expand sample memory to a maximum of 96 Mbytes
(three 32 Mbyte SIMM boards; replacing the factory-
installed 16 Mbyte SIMM with a 32 Mbyte SIMM). In
this case, you can record up to six samples of approxi-
mately 2 minutes 54 seconds each (mono) or approxi-
mately 1 minute 27 seconds each (stereo), for a total 17
minutes 28 seconds of monaural sampling time
(approximately 8 minutes 44 seconds of stereo). Sam-
ples you record into sample memory (RAM) can be
used as tone generator waveforms. However, this data
will be lost when the power of the TRITON STUDIO is
turned off, so you must save any sample data that you
want to keep.
The hard disk lets you record up to 80 minutes as a sin-
gle sample file in either mono or stereo (monaural:
approximately 440 Mbytes, stereo: approximately 879
Mbytes). This will create a WAVE file.
If a sample (WAVE file) that was sampled to the hard
disk is loaded into sample memory (RAM), it can be
used as a tone generator waveform. A sample (WAVE
file) of up to 16 Mbytes (mono) or 32 Mbytes (stereo) (if
sample memory has been expanded to 32 Mbytes or
greater) can be loaded into sample memory (RAM).
WAVE files can also be written to the CDRW-1 option
or to a CD-R/RW connected to the SCSI connector, to
create an audio CD.
• A maximum of 1,000 multisamples and 4,000 samples
can be created.
• In Disk mode, you can load multisample/sample data
from various types of media.
• Korg format or Akai (S1000/3000 samples, mapped
multisamples only) format sample data, and AIFF or
WAVE format sample data can be loaded. (Once data
has been loaded into the TRITON STUDIO, it will all
be treated as Korg format sample data.)
Sample data created on the TRITON STUDIO can be
exported (output) as an AIFF or WAVE format sample
file.
• The external audio source that you are sampling can
be processed by the five insertion effect to apply
effects such as a compressor or EQ. The LFO
frequency or delay time of the effect can be specified
as a BPM value, which is highly effective when
sampling phrase loops etc.
(In Sampling mode, only the insert effects can be used.
In Program, Combination, and Sequencer modes, the
master effects can also be used.)
• Sampling can be initiated by the SAMPLING [START/
STOP] key, note-on, threshold, or the SEQUENCER
[START/STOP] key. (The available methods will
depend on the mode.) Threshold allows you to initiate
sampling when the input signal exceeds the threshold
level you specify. In Sampling mode, you can also
specify a pre-trigger setting.
• The analog audio inputs support mic and line level
signals. Digital audio input via S/P DIF IN supports
48 kHz or 96 kHz sampling rates. Digital audio input
via mLAN (when the EXB-mLAN option is installed)
supports a sampling rate of 48 kHz.
• Audio data can be sampled from an audio CD inserted
in the CDRW-1 option or a SCSI-connected external
CD-R/RW drive. Sampling in the digital domain from
a CD (“ripping”) can also be performed.
• Sampled data can be converted automatically (or
manually, using an easy operation) into a program
and used with the TRITON STUDIO’s HI synthesis
system. (In Sampling mode, use “Convert MS To
Program.” In Program, Combination, or Sequencer
mode, use “Select Bank & Smpl No.”) Once a
multisample/sample has been converted into a
program, you can make filter, amp, and effect settings
and play it as a program. Such a program can also be
used in Combination mode or Sequencer mode.
Samples you record can also be used as drum samples
in a drum kit.
Sampling in Program, Combination, and
Sequencer modes
• A performance in Program, Combination, or
Sequencer modes can be resampled internally, with all
audio remaining in digital form. This lets you
resample a performance that uses the TRITON
STUDIO’s filters, effects, arpeggiator, and sequencer
etc.
• External audio sources from the various input jacks
can be sampled. A performance played on the
TRITON STUDIO can be mixed with the external
audio source and sampled, or you can sample just the
external audio source while monitoring the
performance played on the TRITON STUDIO. The
master effects can also be applied to the signal being
sampled.
• In Sequencer mode when you sample an external
audio source while listening to the playback of the
song, note data can be automatically created in a track.
This “In-Track Sampling” function lets you sample
vocals or guitar while you play the sequencer – just as
if you were recording on a multi-track recorder.
• The song playback in Sequencer mode can be
resampled to the hard disk. Then in Disk mode, you
can edit the order of songs and use the CDRW-1
option to write them as an audio CD.
Editing in Sampling mode
• In Sampling mode, the sample data you sampled or
loaded from various media (including WAVE and
AIFF formats) can be assigned to an index (zone) to
create a multisample.
