Should I sell my Triton Studio-88?

'
Over a period of time I have amassed a collection of keyboards, including my Triton Studio-88.

I've now come to the conclusion that I've just got too many.

My current set-up, which I'm definitely keeping, is -

Korg: M50-88, X50, Kaoss KP3.
Yamaha: Motif XS7.
Kurzweil: K2000VP.
Roland: SH201.
Plus Dell computer, Cubase etc.

If I only had to use one keyboard 'live' it would be my M50.

Having decided to sell everything else I've got (apart from the ones mentioned above)
I'm still in a dilemma as to whether to get rid of the Triton or not!

Considering the stuff I'm keeping, have you any suggestions as to whether or not I should sell the Triton too?

Can it offer me something I can't do with my current gear?
Would I regret it if I did?

Well how do you feel about the sh-201? I have one also. The interface is wonderful, but I find the sound kind of... gritty. Definitely has character though.

I may sell it when I get my triton back (I have MOSS).

I think it's a great addition to any set-up... yeh I'm keeping that one!

Having physical controls for almost every parameter is pretty addictive. I also noticed that modifying ANY aspect of a patch while my sequencer records will record it nicely.

For me it's gonna come down to some head to head testing vs. the MOSS card. Bottom line, if the MOSS sounds nicer in the way that I suspect it does... the 201 is gone!

But for your case... it does sound like you're completely covered if you sell the TS, unless you're using the HD recording features (which i doubt you are).
