The fact that they used only the triton and made so many classic with limited amount of sounds.....producers nowadays have access to hundreds thousands of sounds and all they shit sound the same. Neptune’s forever the goat.
The japanese are geniuses, they helped hip-hop producers by gifting them quality sounds through the keyboard. I pulled out my old 1990 yamaha psr 60 and reproduced Jagged Edge Promise with the epiano and stock pre-programmed drums.
Triton came out when I was in high school. I remember those bus rides to Guitar Center to go make beats on it and dream! Beautiful workstation, so many hits!
Soon as you played “Dynamic E Guitar” I instantly heard “We Thuggin” by Fat Joe & R-Kelly. Neptunes didnt produce that, but that’s definitely the sound the producer used. Pharrell & Chad are definitely my top 5 music producers ever so I smiled throughout this whole video. Great content. Forsurely gettin this VST later & making some magic 👌🏼
I remember a time where everybody was over the Triton sound but there wasnt alot of competitors quality wise beside the xv 5080. Then the motif and fantom came out. That's really when mutisampled instruments became dope.
I seen that my Korg Triton VST review did very well. So I thought about doing this for a few videos until every producer is covered. Let me know who I should cover next?
Timbaland or Storch!! Pleeeeease. Bro, you literally just sold this to me. I've been on the fence for a couple days, because I'm having an issue getting the demo downloaded for whatever reason. But this is the walkthrough I needed. Too bad Korg doesn't give you an affiliate link
Came back to put this out there: EEC Groove is a close relative sawtooth synth for the "Milkshake" lead. Drums are in percussion kit. Remade the whole arrangement. So glad this was released.
legendary keyboard brought to the digital world! I feel like these classic sounds will be used in a lot of hits in the new "roaring 20's" lol; with all of the early 2000's nostalgia rolling back around
Funny how the Triton basically is that "Neptunes Sound", but I think they could have made dope beats on pots n pans and using a toy piano. The difference between a lot of producers today and The Neptunes might be the fact that they met in band class in school. Meaning they knew how to play instruments as opposed to using a mouse for making beats. That's not meant to sound disrespectful because honestly some of the stuff producers have made using just a mouse is incredible. Still, It's always good to improve your ability by taking some time to learn music theory and even get some basic knowledge of playing an instrument. If everyone keeps on just cut and pasting chord progressions they download from the internet everything is bound to sound the same. Sad thinking in the future most people making music might not even know how to play an instrument. Plus beat-selling websites want you to download like 3 tracks daily to get any type of promotion so you end up racking out a lot of garbage beats just to meet a quota. When you gotta pay rent you have no choice if this is how you make a living.
Everyone used the triton then. If you look at any producer from heatmakers to swizz or someone they used it. I produce on the triton. My friend did a song for Beyonce on his triton. Then it was basically triton, mpc, pro tools, asr 10 etc Later came fantom, motif
I worked at a Sam Ash Music store at the height of The Triton. It was way too much fun! EVERYONE was playing that Synth. Dudes that worked in the Brass and Woodwind department spent time in the Keyboard department, the Cashiers spent time in Keyboards, Drums dudes spent time in Keyboards. People would come in off the streets and make some absolute bangers on that Synth almost daily. I used to close out the Cash Registers then head over to Keyboards and jam with the damn Managers! Haha.
When I was a student at Hampton U (99-04)my roommate earned a residency at Hoovercraft Studios (the Neptunes) and it was a blast. Neptunes were cleanin up the award ceremonies. I especially loved how down to earth everyone there was. #Neptunesfan
The reason why I bought the Korg Triton LE back in 2003. Went into the music store to see which one I wanted (Motif or Triton) when I found the grindin drums that’s what sold me on the Triton.
I believe the Neptunes were actually using a Trinity for a lot of those hits. They did use the Triton a lot as well but a lot of those were on the Trinity like the Grindin beat. I recall Pharell doing an interview where he was asked about what filters he used for the drums on Busta "Light yo a.. on fire" and he said they were just stock Trinity sounds. Most of those sounds were transferred to the Trinity but as a previous owner of both synths, I feel the Trinity sound engine was superior to the Triton's. I think Kelis' hard to find 2nd album Wonderland was primarily the Trinity and the 01W. I may be mistaken but I do know they were heavy Trinity users.
I mean they are sort of the same thing as the Triton is just an updated version of the Trinity keyboard as many of the same sounds carried over. They do have a slight different sound because of the converters and filters. But most of the strings patches and everything are the same.
Synth & Bass/Saw & Bass in the lead was used for Milkshake, Excuse Me Miss (remix) the M1 VST has the clarinet used in songs like Mystikal's Shake Ya Ass, Bouncin' Back. Also the infamous clavichord used in Noreaga's Superthug
@@3rdARKnight bro thanks! Although I think I got the sawtooth wrong. Is that saw on wavestation & the Roland? That’s 1/2 patches that have escaped me - that and the one used in Usher’s I Don’t Know
I've heard about the triton a bunch of times, but was somehow put off whenever I looked up Korgs website... I've been in search of (Pun intended) this sounds for a long time. I remember buying Logic Pro X because I've heard it has a lot of real instruments sound, which indeed were cool, but I never got around using logic, as the midi editing was just not for me. I also bought a lot of other (plugin) synths, thinking that'd it finally get my hands on those sounds that I used to hear as a kid, they were definitely great too, but again: not for me. But finally, today I saw the Triton in a video with Timbaland an Jay-Z in the studio, when Timbaland showed him the beat for what eventually became "Dirt off your shoulder". Immediately tried the demo and went through the sounds and had a lot of fun enjoying all those patches. Thus said: thank you for this video. A lot of people might think that the Triton is outplayed, but considering how many (Nep)tunes were made with this thing... I sure think it would be a welcome contrast to all the Omnisphere and Nexus we are used to for the last 5-10 years
Ave, first off, awesome videos and thank you very much for sharing your time with this. Second, in regards to showing the chord progressions, all you really need to do is move the Triton GUI up on the screen far enough and people can see what keys you are pressing on the virtual keyboard on the screen. Thirdly, after watching your previous videos on it, I went and bought the whole Korg Synths package because I used to play on all those synths way back in the day 80s and 90s and really wanted to get one. Now, for $299, I was able to get virtual versions that are true to the originals in digital form! Thanks!
Jermaine Dupree with Nivea, Manuel Seal with Mariah Carey, Troy Taylor with B2K, Rich Harrison with Amerie! Oh and Darkchild on Beyoncé’s Deja Vu! I know I’m asking for a lot lol
Thank you for covering this topic. I knew the percussion kit was on the Trinity but I could never find it on the Triton. I have the extreme version but the layout of sounds is different. This video was very helpful.
Seeing this Video makes me Cry a little Bit. I remember buying the Triton Studio for my Studio! I miss my Keyboard 😭😭😭 Bout to get the Plugin. Wish I can add this to my MPC one.
No floppy disk 💾 needed that’s a plus my best friend bought one back in the day I’m definitely buying it for $200 vs $4000 and $2000 for less keys and memory
Another classic made on Triton is Still Dre. Not sure if you covered it in this video but Storch said it in an interview that he used a triton piano ran through a bunch of compression for Still Dre.
Thats too dope. The korg Triton sounds can still be dope. Remember Zaytoven and Gucci when they flooded hip hop, Zay used a Korg. It was the M3 but the m3 was like the triton and the karma at once, with additional sounfs but the sounds that zay used, were also in the Triton
I come from Germany and i Love this Video about the Triton😀👏 And we in Germany love the Neptunes Productions! And we in Germany love more the old school rnb and Hip Hop from the 2000s and 90s era. This era was from us the best!😀👍
Korg n364 was one of the best selling models has been in production for 10 years, Triton LE came to replace and with almost the same sounds as the n364 line i have an old n364 i am ovating almost all his sounds in this new VST.
hey, rumor has it backstreet, NSNC, 5ive and a bunch of 90s boybands used hiphoppity type samples, have you come across any that sound similar to the 90s boyband style on the Triton or know the potential drum machines that was used? thanks
You're in luck a bit as I have some intel on some of those records. My friend produced for both Nsync and Back street back in the day. He used the Triton LE for "bye bye bye". MR. DJ was a Triton head too and produced for Back Street Boys during their ruler-ship. At bare minimum, most producers around that time had the JV-1080 or the Korg M1 (Korg's successor to the Roland D50) .
@@AveMcree That's incredible thanks so much! I have been trying to find details regarding the drum sounds for a fair while but all dead leads! Are the said drum samples in the triton VST by any chance? the sounds of the 90s are fascinating, the obscure guitar tones which almost sound synthesized to the orch hits!
Nothing beats having the real thing though as the hardware its self has its own filters that give its sound. I still kept all my legacy hardware that's still use. I still got my old Motif ES6, Fantom X etc. J.R Rotem kept all of his keyboards too.
@@AveMcree I have the real thing though that will last for years. I don't anything funny as maybe you are too immature to respond to my comment. Software has its cons that becomes obsolete over time once you upgrade your OS. That is another reason why I still have all my hardware.

@@eman0828 software never becomes obsolete. Who told you that? Let's not have an argument about coding because you're not ready for that. If we want to use the word obsolete as for argument sake. The hardware version of the Triton is decades behind. My laptop can outperform it in any way possible. Not to mention, it will cost you an arm and leg if DAC, motherboard, or OS dies.
@@AveMcree Once the company stops supporting the software and stop making it and you upgrade your OS, you will run into compatibility issues. Ever heard of LinPlug? That company doesn't even exist anymore as they went out of business. Hardware can last for decades as nothing would replace its authentic sound. Those filters were engineered to give it, it's sound and character. That is why J.R Rotem, myself and Ryan Leslie still kept out legacy hardware around. I play at live gigs as a musician from time to time and would trust my Motif over soft synth in terms of reliability and the warmth you get from hardware. If you ever walked into black churches you still older gen Motifs, Fantoms and Tritons still in use. Those boards were really built to last. J.R Rotem still has an XV-5080 module racked in his desk.
If they do this for iOS like they did for the iM1, that will change the game for gigging, travelling keyboard players. Even a stock Triton, with at least the Concert Piano expansion, you could cut pretty much any gig with that. Or at least that with a decent Nord for all the other meat & potatoes sounds.
I'd very much like to get your perspective on how the Triton menu/user interface, which I found suuuuper hard to understand as someone used to making tunes on a DAW, like how the limitations of the UI might have influenced how folks like the Neptunes might have written their tunes using the Triton sequencer, where so many parameters in the keyboard would be easier to access using a piano roll. Maybe they used a piano roll and sent MIDI out but I dunno, just really wanna know what you think cause you know ur sheet
Philly's most wanted- please dont mind T.i.- what's yo name & im serious Foxy brown-candy Slim thug-i aint heard of that Baby face- there she goes Toni Braxton- hit the freeway N'sync- my girlfriend Are also some of my favorites!
yeessssss the sexy ass Arco Strings. i needed this video so badly. So ill need this specific plug in being "Korg, Triton" to be able to have those nostalgia trips right? i always wanted to know which tracks he used. this is mind blowing to me.
The fact that they used only the triton and made so many classic with limited amount of sounds.....producers nowadays have access to hundreds thousands of sounds and all they shit sound the same.
Neptune’s forever the goat.
Sad truth 😔😔 not go lie I'm a lil guilty of this but still have my own sound
Facts! I was an early 00's producer we were limited to what we can afford and made better sounding music than todays trash lol
EXACTLY zero innovation just imitation.
Not to be an ass cos I hope I don't come off that way but they had a shit load of sounds.
Bro all the neptunes shit sounded the same lol. What made the beats stand out was the rappers performances and the Pharell hooks

If you ever walked into black churches you still older gen Motifs, Fantoms and Tritons still in use. Those boards were really built to last. J.R Rotem still has an XV-5080 module racked in his desk.
@@AveMcree You can littery purchase a real Trition Rack from eBay for $300.
If they do this for iOS like they did for the iM1, that will change the game for gigging, travelling keyboard players. Even a stock Triton, with at least the Concert Piano expansion, you could cut pretty much any gig with that. Or at least that with a decent Nord for all the other meat & potatoes sounds.
How to select user banks by Midi, what is Msb and Lsb values for user banks in program or combi mode?
Best regards.
Fantastic video!! Hopefully at some point they release an ASR 10 module vst
Yes
My question is, can you find that signature "neptunes" synth heavily used in Ludacris "Throw dem' Bowz" in this Triton plugin????
RapidFire Muzik™ everything from that track came from the Triton. Go and play with the lead category
RapidFire Muzik™ you talking about the song Southern Hospitality?
That synth is off the Korg 01w.
I need the Ensoniq MR-61 VST.
I wonder if the 702 joint “I Still love you” was made with the triton.. think i heard the drums for it under Orchestra & Ethnic
Lol i guess i should’ve watched towards the end lol i found out afterwards lol
What sound was used to make jay z excuse me miss ???
3:05 is that from DMX - Ruff Ryders Anthem?
Great video ... I also love the neptunes.
yo do you know where you can find the bell chimes in frontin (the sound that is in the background of the bridge)?
The Triton sounds are full and thick which made them stand out, you can make a hit track with just one sound.
I just bought the collection. I have a total of 80 vstis now ave because of you lmao
I'd very much like to get your perspective on how the Triton menu/user interface, which I found suuuuper hard to understand as someone used to making tunes on a DAW, like how the limitations of the UI might have influenced how folks like the Neptunes might have written their tunes using the Triton sequencer, where so many parameters in the keyboard would be easier to access using a piano roll. Maybe they used a piano roll and sent MIDI out but I dunno, just really wanna know what you think cause you know ur sheet
So they didn't even tweak the sounds a little bit? Wow. They wanted those joints exactly how they sounded out the box!
Does anyone know the exact name of the sounds they used for the plucks and main melody in Frontin?
Strato Chime

My first keyboard back in 2003 but had to sell if for some money bc my car broke down in 2009. At least now it's a vst and it's affordable lol
Where's the Motif vst?
FINALLY VST!!!!!
What's going on Ave. In the Neptune drums, Loops, loop 31....is that the jungle kit your talking about?
These sounds also very popular with early grime prodcucers some of these sounds became standard sounds you would hear all the time
Yhh Wiley and dizzie used this heavily 🔥
Sound modules too don’t forget they used
The m1 had the tokyo drift pluck sound.
LILSAF don’t know if it’s on the other models before the triton extreme but as far as I know my triton extreme has that sound too
@Jayden Richards wavy seeing you here lol
