Korg music workstation/sampler User Manual

The effect section of the TRITON Extreme provides five 
insert effects

, two master effects, one master EQ (stereo 

3-band EQ), and a mixer that controls the routing of these 
components.
You can choose from 102 types of full-digital effects for 
each insert effect, and from 89 types for each master effect. 
The effects are categorized as follows.

You can select effects 000–089 for IFX1, 2, 3, 4, 5, MFX1, 
and MFX2.
You can select effects 090–102 for IFX2, 3, or 4. This is 
because these are double-size effects which require twice 
as much processing as the other effects.

In Program mode, insert effects can be used as part of the 
sound-creating process, in the same way that the output 
sound of the oscillator (OSC) is processed by the filter and 
amp to create the final sound. Then the master effects can 
be used to apply spatial-type effects such as reverb. The 
stereo 3-band master EQ is located immediately before the 
OUTPUT (MAIN) L/MONO and R outputs and is used to 
make final adjustments in tone. These settings can be 
made independently for each program.

In Combination mode, Sequencer mode, and Song Play 
mode

, insert effects can be used to help create the sound 

of each timbre/track. The master effects are used to apply 
overall spatial processing, and the master EQ is used to 
make overall adjustments in tone.
You can make these settings independently for each com-
bination in Combination mode, independently for each 
song in Sequencer mode, and in Song Play mode for the 
entire mode.

In Sampling mode, you can sample while applying insert 
effects to the audio coming in via AUDIO INPUT 1, 2, or 
S/P DIF IN jacks. Settings in Sampling mode are made in 
Input (SAMPLING)

 (Sampling P0: Input/Setup). These 

settings are valid only for Sampling mode.
You can also sample while applying an insert effect to the 
samples assigned to a multisample.

The external input from the AUDIO INPUT 1, 2, or S/P 
DIF IN

 jacks is also valid in modes other than Sampling 

mode. In Program, Combination, Sequencer, and Song 
Play modes, you can use the insert effects, master effects, 
and master EQ. Settings for external signal input via the 
AUDIO INPUT 1, 2, and S/P DIF IN can be made in 
“Input (COMBI, PROG, SEQ, S.PLAY, MEDIA)” (set in 
Global P0: 0–3a or in the corresponding mode).
In these modes, the external input sound from each jack 
can be processed by the TRITON Extreme’s effects and 
sampled, or the TRITON Extreme can be used as a 4-in 
(AUDIO INPUT 1, 2, and S/P DIF IN L, R) 6-out effect 
processor. The TRITON Extreme can also be used as a 
vocoder effect (093: Vocoder) that uses external mic input 
to control internal sounds.

When effects are applied to the external input sound 
from the AUDIO INPUT 1, 2, and S/P DIF IN jacks, 
certain effect types or parameter settings may cause 
oscillation to occur. If this occurs, adjust the input 
level, output level, or effect parameters. Please be 
aware of this particularly when using an effect that 
has a high gain.
