Korg Forums

forgive me that i don't know the proper terminology.

i'm programming an 88 key korg triton extreme right now for a musical.

how would do it if i wanted, say, a G2 when pressed to play that G, the D above, the F about that, and the A above that? such that, playing one note triggers many. and, in the same combination, having other notes do the same (with other combinations of notes).

here, take a look at this pic:

that's from the score i'm working with...as you can see, the trigger note in the first bar (an Eb) needs to play the 6 notes, and the Db trigger in the next bar needs to play 6 other notes.

similar things happen about 10 other times in the score, and i'd like to be able to program all this with a korg and not have to deal with the kurzweil and rolands as listed in the programming notes.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks,
N

Dude, just wanna point out that this might belong in the Extreme Forum.

PS: - I'd have a stab at it - but things on the Extreme may be set up differently.
No sampler AFAIK for a start.

He's already posted it in the Extreme forum. And got some responses.

I'm sorry I couldn't help further though.

If the Extreme didn't have a sampler, it wouldn't be EXTREME. Of course it has a sampler.

What he's asking for is the exact same on the Triton Classic, Studio, and Extreme. It will be the same for all (and probably the M50/M3 as well).

LOL,

Yes sir,
I posted that trepidaciously, got confused with Karma there for a minute.

Of course, the Extreme has a sampler,
I repeat, the Triton Extreme HAS GOT A SAMPLER!...
and much more.

PS: I think the safest route for that problem would be the sample route - ie.
recording the chords into a DAW or PC audio sequencer, then sampling those back into the Extreme - for setup in a single or multiple MS-program,
depending on what suits best.

The RPPR might be a bit chancy - if you have to extend the chord over the length of the notes given in the score.
You could of course always extend the length of the notes implemented in the Pattern in RPPR mode, and simply switch the sequencer off - but that is still very fidgity for a live situation.

If you go the Combi-sample route, you can hold the chord on one key for as long as seems appropriate for the dramatic moment in a live context - therefore you're not limited to any tempo-rhythmic settings in the sequencer - and you minimize the amount of fidgiting with buttons.

Depending on what he's doing, I'd go either RPPR or even use the arpeggiator. I'd probably try it both ways and see what works best to be honest. They both have their pluses and minuses.
