Loading Instructions for the Korg Triton Demo Disk
These sounds are copyrighted by Syntaur Productions, so you cannot distribute them to others or
post them on the internet. But you are free - and encouraged - to use them in your music and
productions. Please contact us for a free catalog, or visit our web site at www.syntaur.com to
see the variety of sounds that we offer.
Insert the disk and press the Disk button. Load the file TIMBDEMO.KSC by highlighting that
file, selecting “Load” from the upper right corner of the screen, then pressing “Load selected.”
In the next window, check the box next to “Load TIMBDEMO.PCG too” then press “OK.”
The Triton will load into Program Bank E a bank of all of the Syntaur KeeMaster Drumz (though
these Programs will not play because there is no sample data on the Demo Disk for all of these
kits). You can, however, select and play Program 047: Timba Demo. This kit contains 3
samples of kick drums, 4 samples of snare drums, and 4 hi-hat samples from the TimbaDrumz 1
set; some of the keys have been blanked out on this demo version. (On a normal disk from our
library, drum sounds are mapped over the all of the keys.)
The sounds on this disk are from our KeeMaster Drumz series, and will give you an idea of the
quality of our product for the Korg Triton. The samples in this series were created on the
classic Akai MPC3000 drum machine, then ported over to the Triton and reprogrammed to take full
advantage of its many modulators.

Modulators
| Velocity | Controls volume. |
| Knob 1 | Tunes pitch down. |
| Knob 2 | Funky filter effect (Auto Wah); makes the tone "quack." |
| Knob 3 | Vinyl record effect; turning this knob up makes the drums sound like they are coming from a scratchy vinyl record. |
| Knob 4 | Panning. |
| SW1 | Toggles stereo compressor on and off. |
| SW2 | Toggles overdrive/phaser on and off. |
| Joystick X | Moving the joystick left dive-bombs the pitch, moving it right bends the pitch up slightly. The joystick also controls echoes; right movement creates straight echoes, left creates syncopated echoes. Combined with the up and down movement (see below), the bottom line is: move the joystick all around to really whack out the sound! |
| Joystick +Y | Push up for echo effect, push midway to kill the delay. |
| Joystick -Y | Weird stereo (Haas) effect. |
| Ribbon | More freaky fun! Adjusts the pitch and filter together. |
