Tone generators and oscillators<br />

Each oscillator in the <strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong> is sounded by one<br />

of two Tone Generators.<br />

Each tone generator is connected to the various PCM<br />

memories as shown in the diagram below.<br />

Tone Generator 1<br />

• ROM: Internal PCM ROM (32 Mbytes)<br />

• RAM: User sample memory (16 Mbytes, expandable<br />

to a maximum of 96 Mbytes)<br />

Tone Generator 1 Tone Generator 2<br />

Maximum 60 oscillators Maximum 60 oscillators<br />

Total maximum 120 oscillators<br />

Each tone generator is able to simultaneously sound up to<br />

60 oscillators (i.e., to play the PCM data connected to that<br />

tone generator). Together, the two tone generators are able<br />

to sound up to 120 oscillators.<br />

For example up to 60 oscillators can use the ROM, and up<br />

to 60 oscillators can use the Piano, making a total of 120<br />

oscillators. However, you can’t play 61 or more oscillators<br />

from the ROM alone.<br />

Number of voices in each mode<br />

The maximum number of voices that can be played simultaneously<br />

will depend on the oscillator mode of the program.<br />

• For a Single/Drum-mode program, 1 oscillator = 1<br />

voice<br />

• For a Double-mode program, 2 oscillators = 1 voice<br />

Program mode<br />

Single/Drums (“Oscillator Mode”)<br />

Normally, 60 voices can be used.<br />

However a maximum of 120 voices will be available if, for<br />

example, ROM or RAM is used for the High MS, and<br />

Piano–Synth is used for the Low MS, and you use velocity<br />

switching to play the two tone generators.<br />

Double (“Oscillator Mode”)<br />

Normally, 30 voices can be used.<br />

However if OSC1 is sounded by one tone generator and<br />

OSC2 is sounded by the other tone generator (e.g.,<br />

OSC1=ROM, OSC2=Piano–Synth), a maximum of 60<br />

voices can be used. If OSC1 and OSC2 use one tone generator<br />

(e.g., OSC1=ROM, OSC2=ROM), then a maximum of<br />

30 voices can be used.<br />

This can also be increased by velocity switch and velocity<br />

zone settings.<br />

Combination, Sequencer, and Song Play modes<br />

Depending on the oscillator mode of the programs you<br />

are using, the maximum number will vary between 60<br />

voices and 120 voices.<br />

(Example)<br />

For single-mode programs that use ROM or RAM, a total<br />

maximum of 60 voices<br />

For single-mode programs that use Piano–Synth, a total<br />

maximum of 60 voices<br />

Total 120 voices<br />

For double-mode programs that use ROM or RAM, a total<br />

maximum of 30 voices<br />

For double-mode programs that use Piano–Synth, a total<br />

maximum of 30 voices<br />

Total 60 voices<br />

Sampling mode<br />

Tone generator 1 is always used in Sampling mode.<br />

Mono samples/multisamples<br />

60 voices.<br />

Stereo samples/multisamples<br />

30 voices.
