The Korg collection is, in my opinion, among the best software synth bundles available, very good old analog classics, M1 and Wavestation need no explanation, and with the Prophecy and the two Tritons, it now has a massive collection of exceptional synths, every part is great. I would chose this collection anytime over Arturia or the Roland cloud, but then, I have been a Korg fan all my life :-)
There’s something very enjoyable about these old classics. Things are so complicated today. The sounds often are very complex, and whilst they sound pretty good on their own, in a mix they are often difficult to blend in. These legacy classics likte Triton and the Roland VSTs are phenomenal.
I spent over $1,000 on one shortly before they released the plugin lol, and honestly I love the VST recreation. Especially considering the physical 88-key version is over half my body weight
This collection is so extensive that it would justify a dedicated midi-keyboard, provided there would be a detailed midimapping for this keyboard. Do such mappings exist for NI Kontrol or for the Arturia Keylab used in the video? Any orher suggestions?
I keep finding myself really appreciating Korg sounds even more as I become a better musician. They really do scale with your expertise. I'm so impressed that the Mario Kart Wii soundtrack was made almost entirely on a Triton, it sets the bar very high for what skilled people are able to do with such gear.
I love all of the synths in the Korg collection, but the inclusion of the Triton Extreme seems redundant as i understand the TE is simply a reworked Triton with expansion sounds included and the Korg collection already includes the Triton with all of its expansions.
@dare2win215 To which version of the collection are you referring? If I read Korg's launch release correctly, this was the first time the full Triton was included. Of maybe I missed something . . . I find Korg's presentation to be confusing.
I believe so. The physical keyboard definitely contains all the patch banks, and I noticed there's a lot of overlap between the plugins. But the normal Triton VST comes with more EXB-expansion stuff that isn't in the Extreme.
The Physical Korg Triton Extreme has the entire PCM ROM from the Studio model plus the entire sample sets from Korg's best-selling Trance Attack, Orchestral Collection, and Vintage Archives expansion boards, as well as the most popular sounds from the Dance Extreme, Studio Essentials, and Pianos/Classic Keyboards collections. PCM data not available on any other Triton models was also included such as improved pianos and acoustic guitars. The 34MB ROM of the "Classic" was upgraded to 160MB.
As an owner of the 88 key model, I think the plugin sounds perfect. I've done deep comparisons, but Korg is really good about accurately modeling their hardware, because they're using the exact same ROM data and everything.

My favorite synth reviewer!!!

KORGソフトシンセ群は別売カードも収録されているから親切
KORG just added the MicroKORG recently, now i would love the 01/W FD too.
I love it! Great sounds and a fantastic GUI!
I think I just had a Korg-asm!
知ってる人は知ってるだろうけど、『けいおん！』のムギちゃんが弾いていたキーボードとしても有名なんだよね。
Very grand demo, and a super nice watch (not the cheap-looking applewatch) 😉
The sound of Sonic Adventure on the Sega Dreamcast ❤️
Yes ! The 90s/early 00s korg sounds invoke nostalgia of video games, drum n bass, toonami, and Nickelodeon TV shows 😆
Great video my friend!
KORGのWavestationのパフォーマンス機能(レイヤーやデュアルと同義)を引き継いでいるみたいで。
独奏における重厚な音作りには、とんでもない魅力がある気がします。
特にウェイヴ・シーケンスのノウハウを生かしたサンプル数も膨大にあるだろうから。
壮大で複雑な音を組み合わせる事が可能なんだと思う。😱
TRINITY〜TRITON シリーズは、
やっぱり パッド系 キラキラ系サウンドが
よく似合うような気がします。
筐体がいかにもデジタルシンセの
先を行ってるんだぞ〜って感じの
クールなデザインからしても
生楽器系よりも シンセ音色が
よく似合うイメージが個人的にします。
全くもって音色に品があるのと、
機能面も多彩なギミックもあるので、
ある意味 NAUTILUSに
負けてないですよね〜
It would be even cooler to add the possibility to import your short samples, which you could process within.
For those that had the actual board. How do you feel about this VSTi? Did they get it right ?

@@TheVideogamemaster9 and many of us, including me, only wish we could find it for $1000 in a good quality

No words to pronouncing this synths...
KoreeeG!
I have this program, but it doesn’t sound like this for me. The player makes all the difference.

Does Extreme contain all sound from original TRITON?

is it as authentic as a physical triton extreme?
