Basic functions
Saving data
Types of data that can be saved
On the TRITON STUDIO, there are three ways to save
data: writing to internal memory, saving on media
(floppy disk, internal hard drive, CD-R/RW, hard disk
and other removable media etc.), and MIDI data dump.
Writing to internal memory
The following types of edited can be written into the inter-
nal memory.
• Program
Programs 0–127 in banks INT-A–INT-F, EXB-A–EXB-G
(However, bank INT-F is available only if the EXB-
MOSS option is installed.)
• Combination
Combinations 0–127 in banks INT-A–INT-E, EXB-A–
EXB-G
• Global settings
(Global P0: Basic Setup–P4: Category Name)
• User drum kits 00 (I-A/B)–143 (User)
• User arpeggio patterns U000 (I-A/B)–U506 (User)
• User template songs U00–U15
Song settings such as the song name and tempo, track
settings (☞p.81), arpeggiator settings, and effect set-
tings can be saved (written) to internal memory. How-
ever, the musical data for song tracks and patterns are
not saved to internal memory. Furthermore, settings
that govern how the musical data is played back such
as “Meter,” “Metronome,” “Play/Mute,” “Track Play
Loop (including Start/End measure),” and RPPR set-
tings will not be saved either. Use the Sequencer mode
page menu command “Save Template Song” to write
this data (☞PG p.54).
If multisamples or samples from the RAM bank are
used in the Multisample or Drum Kit of a program,
you should be aware that these multisamples or sam-
ples cannot be written into memory. This means that
if you turn the power of and then on once again, pro-
grams or combinations that use such multisamples or
samples will not sound as intended. To reproduce
such programs or combinations, the necessary multi-
samples or samples must be saved on media (such as
floppy disk, hard disk, CD-R/RW and removable
disk etc.), and then reloaded.
Data that you edit in Sequencer, Song Play, or Sam-
pling cannot be saved in internal memory by the
Write operation.
Saving to various types of media
The following data can be saved to various types of
media.
• .PCG file:
Programs, combinations, global settings, user drum
kits, user arpeggio patterns (The data that was checked
in the check boxes of the Save dialog box will be
saved.)
• .SNG file: Song and cue list data
• .KSC, .KMP, .KSF files:
Lists of sample and multisamples (.KSC file), multi-
samples (.KMP file), samples (.KSF file).
• .MID file:
Saves a Sequencer mode song in Standard MIDI File
(SMF) format.
• .EXL file:
System exclusive data from an external device that was
saved on the TRITON STUDIO (This allows the TRI-
TON STUDIO to be used as a data filer.)
• .JKB file:
Jukebox lists are saved in Song Play mode (☞p.122).
All other types of file are saved in Disk mode.
• .WAV and .AIF files:
A sample you recorded can be exported (written) as a
WAVE file or AIFF file.
• .KCD file:
Audio track list
MIDI data dump
The following types of data can be transmitted as a MIDI
data dump and saved on an external data filer or other
device.
• Programs, combinations, global settings, user drum
kits, and user arpeggio patterns
• Songs, cue lists
