[PascalDueren]

Just amazing^^

[francesco2688]

tu es génial ! j'aime beaucoup tes mélodies ! j'aimerai en entendre d'autres lol de toi;)

[znap07]

OK thanks for your answer and congratulations again

[mcdux]

@znap07 Thanks for your supporting comments! :-)

[znap07]

Hi, nice playing... Can you tell me what combis did you use?

[mcdux]

@znap07 As already said in the comments, these are not built-in presets. Take a piano sound you like, some strings sounds, mix them in combi mode and you're done!

[SuperDesirer]

just talking about the melody played in this video is it possible for you to share the notations

[mcdux]

@SuperDesirer Not at all, I'm sorry. I just improvized something and can't play it again :D

[Dhruvva]

I think I just had a KORGasm O_O

[mcdux]

@Dhruvva lol :D

[SuperDesirer]

can you please name the combination presets that are played and explained in this video.

[mcdux]

@SuperDesirer Nope, these are not built-in presets. Take a piano sound you like, some strings sounds, mix them and you're done!

[TheElodiemarie]

j'adore cet instrument!!! il n'est plus en vente maintenant c'est le Korg M3 qui le remplace... mon rêve c'est d'en avoir un mais c'est très cher... tu joues très bien!!

Hey, just wanted to let everyone know I've left Open Labs and started a new company called Music Computing. Check out the new gear at Music Computing or click the link below for videos. - Thanks, Victor Wong

[mattliebl6199]

what does the combi feature do on the triton?

[mcdux]

@mattliebl6199 On the Triton Extreme, the combi mode allows you to use up to 8 instruments on the keyboard at the same time, whereas the prog mode allows you to build or customize one sound (using 2 oscillators, that is to say 2 sounds generators).

With the combi mode you can mix the sounds different ways: overlay, split keyboard, based on velocity, or all of that together :P

[mattliebl6199]

@mcdux and is there any way to switch between sounds in the middle of a live performance? lets say i have to go from an organ sound then switch to a strings sounds right away. is that possible?

[mcdux]

@mattliebl6199 I thought about that a few years ago as I needed that feature too. I think the Triton Extreme might not be the perfect master keyboard for live performance. It's first a sequencer (another mode i didn't talk about, which allows you to record your playing on 16 tracks).

However, I think there are several ways to switch between sounds, more or less quickly. I'll explain them in the next posts (thanks to youtube that limit the char in a post). :P

[mcdux]

@mattliebl6199 Here are the different ways I've found to switch between sounds:

1. (i think that's the official way of doing that) Use the program or combination mode and define your personal settings you need in the correct order. User's progs and combis are store in the Bank E, so for example, put your first settings in E000, your second settings in E001, the next one in E002, etc. You can then use the switch pedal to switch between E000, E001, E002, etc.

[mcdux]

@mattliebl6199 This method has 2 drawbacks: you have to choose one way: move forward or backward in the banks numbers; you can't go backward with the pedal if you choose forward. And more important I think, you could hear a little break in the global output sound when you move to the next bank number. Especially if you use some reverb or that kind of effect that hold in time...

[mcdux]

@mattliebl6199 2. (a workaround) Use the combination mode and use only one bank number. Define all you need (for example, organ and strings) on the keyboard as you need, and use the volume or other parameters you can quickly control with knobs or pedals to mute the sound of one instrument and de-mute another one (more complicated, but doable).

[mcdux]

@mattliebl6199 The side effect of this second method is that you can't change the global effects as you don't change the whole parameters (there are insert effects (applied to each instruments) and global effects (applied to the general output)).

3. Other methods consist of using midi and multiple keyboards, or using a mix of all these method during a song.

[mattliebl6199]

@mcdux thank you so much for the info. very helpful. and does this apply to all korg tritons? or just the extreme?

[mcdux]

@mattliebl6199 you're welcome. I don't know the other korg instruments as I never tried them, sorry. ;-)

[AGthakid11]

LMAOOO 3:09 i love that word SUGATUSH ! hahaa Awesome playing man :) Goodjob :)  Very Superb :)

[siddolo]

(in combi mode)

thank's a lot

bye

[KushLesko]

Where can I buy one of these? The sites that I usually order from said that they are discontinued. Your inprovs are great. You should build on them... Thanks!

[SonnyC4]

Which song do you play last?

[mcdux]

@SonnyC4 Nothing. It's just an improvisation.

[Wound3125]

wie heist die zweite lied? Weist jemand?

[JAZZSTARish]

Ok I have an 88 Extreme but is it just me or does the acoustic pianos sound glassy too thin...is there a step by step procedure to adjust the knob controls...because I also have a yamaha but the pianos sound better when I amp it. Suggestions appreciated.

[anstonian]

Great Demo, Lovely playing. Buy, why?. why? Do people reviewing synths, alway's seem to play piano?. We know what a piano sounds like. If you want piano, by a piano, we want to hear synth sounds on a synth, but al, we seem to get is Piano's, Ahhhhhh1. surley i'm not the only one who feels like this,m am I ?;. Really nice sound though and superb playing. LOL .

[thefonz003]

@anstonian I agree. Still great playing. This guy's skilled.

[beat80cj]

@anstonian If he bought a piano, he wouldn't have the strings and bell sounds, or the ability to mix sounds in and out the way he is doing in the video. Plus it's much easier to transport a keyboard than a big cumberson piano. Plus the keyboard cost less, but sounds very good. I bought the 76 key version of this keyboard, it's got some good synth's in it, especially if you get one that has the MOSS board inside it.

[Technofish1]

@anstonian Bloody good point man! synthesizers are for "synthetic" textures and sounds, unheard stuff - I agree with you! But real piano talent by the way

[mcdux]

@anstonian Thanks for your comment, but I'm sorry, I disagree with you.

First, I'm not really "reviewing" the Triton Extreme here. If people that review synths first try piano sounds, it's probably because these are the most difficult sounds to synthesize (a good piano sounds can reach 200MB or even more; it's huge, especially embedded in a device).

If you think that keyboardists shouldn't play piano on their keyboard, I think you just don't understand the role of the keyboardist in a band.

[grymmtymm]

@anstonian this is because one of the common tests of a good synth is how good does the acoustic piano patches sound like. are they realistic? or thin and weak? that's a good place to start on how the sounds overall will be.

plus this wasn't a review. he was showing us his own favorite sounds that he uses in the triton.

[henrijuhani]

I watched this like 10 times a row. Stunning playing skills! You could make millions by making film soundtracks or some. Big ups!

[tuyentube]

WOW. INCREDIBLE. YOU SHOULD BE A FILM COMPOSER.

[traidnt1]

bravoooo snioretaaaaa

[cheerbearlovable]

wooow

i want one triton

ok.bye bye.♂♂

[adrianh63]

Awesome Synth!

I own the 88 key Triton Exteme w/Moss board.

Could you please speak in "English" for us english speakers....Thanks!

[IvicaZC]

which songs are you playing that? the one after you showing the pedal is wary nice. What is it? :D

[j2smooth30]

Ok, you type in english can you speak in it too? I wish I knew what you were saying...

[IllusionaryMind8]

@j2smooth30

By the purcentage of video in english on youtube can you simply ear one in french without crying?

[DrHysteric]

@j2smooth30 He just explains what instruments are being played and what the pedal does, and at 3:50 he says that there is a preset that allows you to play one instrument when hitting the key gently and another instrument when being ruder on the key. That's most likely about it :)

[arjungs666]

..this is a mater piece

[kind1277]

thank u

[Michele010479]

bravo bravo!

[mundavid]

como se llama la cancion del minuto 1:26

[Ddragonwarrior]

Is this the same as the TR88 he uses in his other videos? Sorry, im a nub at this

[Chewbocko]

Yes.

[mcdux]

@Ddragonwarrior : it's a Korg Triton Extreme 88 keys. It's not a TR 88.

[sheep251282]

whats the name of the he's playing? or in what scale

[ansonmark]

what are the combi presets used in this video anyone got an idea?

[aARIESsSs]

hahahaha

[davidionelove]

mandou bem em cara

[Z3R04NGEL]

Now I know why Tuomas uses this keyboard XD

[OceanwhisperersMusic]

technically he uses the older version :D

[kc0703chua]

two KORG tritons..thats WOW!!

[trifftone]

...a couple of mistakes towards the end..

[pablokpo55]

AWESOME!! AMAZING!!! INCREDIBLE!!

[megasmashface]

beautiful playing, very enjoyable

[DJBlackedHeart]

Tres tres beau, jai une question pour toi connais tu le microkorg XL ?

[kinout69]

genialisime tes explications et ton jeu!

[Kwanky182]

well done man, u got skills

[adrifromhh]

The Strings are awsome, can someone tell me wich synthesizer at a lower price also has got some nice strings like that?

[voltaspeeder17]

Probably lots of them. Korg M50, Yamaha MO, etc...

[sergio23cap]

Don´t look further, you have Yamaha Mo6 and Mo8. There´s no better sounds in the world

[frig2]

You think I should buy a Yamaha MO6 rather than one in the Korg Triton TR series? :) Just asking, 'cause I think it would be between those two ;)

[donnie1558]

it depends on what style of music you play. for gospel or r&b they are both very good. although they are very heavy. but if you are more of a jazz player i would suggest the kurzweil pc3

[zleepyjan]

i Like :D

[maltcus]

very nice

[sk71m]

Very nice.... Great talent !! Looks like you are playing A major scale.

[juanoser]

amazing men you are a fuckin master

atte: Noser Beiss

[cjdistheman1]

YOU SICK S.O.B. THAT WAS HOT

[SexyPepsi2]

in my head are so much emotions ... its amazingly beautiful

[Blazed15]

Tes trop bon!!

[mattsmusicstudio]

Really liked how you used the expression pedal to bring the strings in and out, really smooth, really good playing

[snellywelly99]

do you know how this person did this. i want to do the same thing on my triton

[pcpsteele]

yup, 10 years practise probably!

[VinnyBrasi]

this is C minor... I use this scale too ^^

[AltinaKond]

because i play a similar riff like the one on the left hand!They are like so alike man!

i usually play in A#,G and D#!!!

answer please!?

[AltinaKond]

what is the scale you play in?

[zed0505]

crazy french phuck

[malvivente1986]

One can see that you are an intelligent guy from the way yo e.g. demonstrate the essence of the expression pedal.

And you also play very good.

Cheers from Hungary!

Martin

[atb1248]

Je rajoute: Je perçois beaucoup d'improvisation...

[atb1248]

Il me semble avoir déjà entendu ça, je ne saurais dire le nom de la chanson, mais je crois qu'il s'agit de deux morceau de trances...

[barcode3000]

very nice song.. have you wrote it yourself or is it a song?? because i wanna know how to play it :D

[Tobjec]

could you add me 278857775 have some questions...j´ai beaucoup de questions

[Bigturns33]

I like that chord progression.  Looks like key Dm?

[elispiro]

did you write the music that you were playing? you're already incredible, but if you wrote that music... il n'y a pas des mots pour te decrire!

[macgeek12]

what happened to the extreme? are they not selling them anymore?

[cyphersuit1]

you got no head :(

[MaxViti]

Lol 0:59 => We can see mcdux's head ^^

Good playing, good player, good video !

[lycanthe01]

Il coute combien le triton Korg extreme ? (N'arrete pas de jouer)

[dragonsagoth666]

I have better things in my life, like college for example, to do instead of learning French. I'm already speaking English for 15 years, why bother learning a new language? And since the guy wrote the video info in English, I figured what's the problem in recording a video in English then? Nvm.

[xXStockHausenXx]

So because you speak english he "must" speak english ? or what.. its still a nice video... language doesnt matter. By the way, learning a new language is a sign of intelligence. Maybe he don't speak english.

[FunkiJunk]

Learn French

[azir111]

tres bien tu peut faire aussi pour moi un video et joue les synth quil y a exuse je parle pas tres bien francaise mais je vous savoir quel synth voix i l ya le korg

[dragonsagoth666]

It would have been great if you spoke in English so everyone could understand you. Nonetheless, great playing, and expression pedal trick is also nice :D

[azir111]

i was asking him if he could make a video where he plays all the synth sounds cause i make crunk beats and i wanna know exactly what sounds he has it would be great for everybody if he do that cind of a video

[moniodfamily]

vraiment génial ton instrument...! jador tp tp tp
