LE/TR SD Card

A few months ago my Korg Triton LE 61 was stolen. Luckily my SD card wasn't with it. My concern... since I have so much material on my card, if I purchase a Triton TR 61, will I still be able to access my tracks and hear them as if it was the LE? Also, am I limited to only the TR? Is there a way to access the beats and hear them the exact same way if I had another keyboard?

Thanks in advance.

PCG files and SNG files are sharable between anything that uses the HI architecture - Triton, Triton Studio, LE, TR, Triton Extreme.

You may hear things differently on a TR though, depending on how the internal waveforms are organized. If Korg is smart (and I suspect they are), the waveforms are organized on the TR so that the first number of waves are those used by the LE and the rest are those used by the TR, so you won't miss anything.

yes, the TR and LE share the same basic waveform ROM, with the TR just having an 'expanded' bank in addition to the normal ROM sounds.

however, some of the programs I believe are different or in a different order, so if you didn't save a PCG at all you'll have to remap your sequence's programs.

Don't sequences store the data for the programs used in the sequence, just like combis?

combi's and sequence's tracks/timbres are literally just the bank letter and program number. what they point to could be anything.

however you can force them to transpose, mono/poly, keyzones, etc.

I do appreciate you guys feedback. I have a MO6 and a Phantom rack, but the Korg is where the majority of my beats were created. And I would be SICK if I could'nt access them anymore. The LE is hard to find now, so I guess I need to get a TR. Thanks.
