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.
