I ' re-discover' my Triton Le 61 again for live use !!

Post by CJ4ever »

Hi all,

just wanna feel free to share some Triton Le hapiness :D

Since I was using the Roland Fantom X7 for live use (because I was tired of bringing also the Le61 with it and too much quick prog/combi switches on both synths) my Le61 stayed at home, being a midi-keyboard for Logic and sometimes use its sounds to record with Logic etc. etc.

Let's NOT talk about Roland vs Korg because both brands mean a lot to me and ' helped' me building up my 'musical experience'. 8)

Well, now I am getting tired of carrying my Fantom X7 all time to live band gigs (even though it is only one synth, and 14 kg is not too heavy).

Now I am putting things up like this:

Fantom X7 (fully expanded with SRX-cards) with awesome (good tweakable) sounds is now at home , connected with my Mac for Logic (Almost no plugin sounds, just Fantom X sounds through midi), works perfect. And when I want to record Triton sounds I just midi-thru it also

Live stage use now: Triton Le61 as my main keyboard and on the upper tier a Roland PC160 midi-controller ( 2nd hand for 25 euro !) with 32 keys.

Fantom X7 on stage = 76 keys

Triton Le + Roland PC-160 = 61 + 32 = 93 keys !!! (And both fit in one softcase, AND so light weight !)

So I got enough keys to split and layer a lot ! And because of good midi just one push on a button and sounds are set on main- and midi-keyboard ! But anyway NICE to carry so LITTLE but have BIG sounds 8)

And thanks to an earlier post by X-trade about IFX I found out how I can use three separate FX on the Triton Le !!!!

So yes, I will of course now look for even more advices/tips etc. on this website !

Well, time for me to now fully re-explore my Le again !

Just wanted to share this joy :wink:

Mh, because I play in more bands maybe I will use the Fantom X7 alone in my main band

C u later

Great to hear it. I'm still getting plenty of use from my LE as well, it's the mother ship for my M50.

Okay nice !

Well I am very glad with the Le61 with PC160 midikeyboard setup.

I also have my Le61 expanded with 64 mb and sampling-board.

So I got enough for now I guess :o :

- 93 keys in total
- being able to sample / play samples
- knowing how to make 3 separate effects
- easy midi assigning
- lightweight setup !!!
