6. Inserting and removing CF card slot<br />

media<br />

You can insert a CompactFlash or Microdrive card into the<br />

CF card slot, and use it to save or load song data or sample<br />

data.<br />

When using a Microdrive, you can save the sampled data<br />

directly to media.<br />

The <strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong>’s CF card slot does not support<br />

hot-plugging. You must turn off the power before<br />

inserting or removing CF card slot media. Turning off<br />

the <strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong> to insert media into the CF slot<br />

will cause your unsaved sequence and sample data to<br />

be lost; so we suggest you always insert your media<br />

before you turn the <strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong> on, in case you<br />

want to save any of the data you create.<br />

Inserting media<br />

1 Turn off the power of the <strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong>.<br />

2 Make sure that the CF card slot eject button located<br />

on the rear panel is pressed inward.<br />

If the eject button is in the outward position, press it in.<br />

3 Insert your CompactFlash or Microdrive card into the<br />

CF card slot.<br />

Make sure that the card is oriented correctly; the label<br />

should be upward, and the connector end inserted<br />

first.<br />

4 Push the card in until the media is inserted all the<br />

way into the slot.<br />

5 Turn on the power.<br />

To verify that the media was recognized correctly,<br />

check that the Media mode “Media Select” display<br />

shows CF (CompactFlash) or MD (Microdrive).<br />

(☞p.119)<br />

If the display indicates Unformatted, you will need to<br />

format the card. Newly purchased media or media<br />

that has been used by another device must also be<br />

formatted before you use it on the <strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong><br />

for the first time. For the formatting procedure, refer<br />

to p.119.<br />

Removing media<br />

1 Turn off the power of the <strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong>.<br />

2 Press the CF card slot eject button located on the rear<br />

panel, and pull the button outward.<br />

3 Press the CF card slot eject button inward, and then<br />

pull the media out of the connector inside the slot.<br />

4 Remove the media from the slot.<br />

Store the media correctly as described in the instructions<br />

included with the media.<br />

7. Connecting a USB device<br />

You can connect an external USB device such as a hard<br />

disk or CD-R/RW drive to the USB A connector, and<br />

transfer data to and from the device.<br />

Connect the <strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong>’s USB A connector to<br />

the USB connector of your external USB device.<br />

If you connect the <strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong>’s USB B connector to<br />

your computer, you will be able to transfer data to and<br />

from your computer. You can also send and receive MIDI<br />

data to/from your sequencer software or similar application.<br />

Connect the <strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong>’s USB B connector to<br />

the USB connector of your computer.<br />

☞ For details on connecting USB devices, refer to PG<br />

p.325.<br />

8. Connections to MIDI equipment/<br />

computers<br />

Connections to MIDI equipment<br />

The keyboard, controllers, and sequencer etc. of <strong>TRITON</strong><br />

<strong>Extreme</strong> can be used to control an external MIDI tone generator.<br />

Conversely, another MIDI keyboard or sequencer<br />

can control the tone generator of <strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong> to produce<br />

sound.<br />

Use MIDI cables to connect the MIDI connectors of<br />

<strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong> with the MIDI connectors of your<br />

external device.<br />

☞ PG p.288 “MIDI applications – Connecting MIDI<br />

devices/computers”<br />

Connections to a computer<br />

Your performance on the <strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong>, as well as<br />

controller and sequencer data, can be sent to a computer<br />

(connected via MIDI interface), and the tone generator of<br />

<strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong> can be played from the computer.<br />

Use a MIDI interface to connect the MIDI connectors<br />

of <strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong> to the MIDI connectors of your<br />

computer.<br />

Connect the <strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong>’s USB B connector to<br />

the USB connector of your computer.<br />

☞ PG p.288 “MIDI applications – Connecting MIDI<br />

devices/computers”<br />

Some USB-MIDI interfaces may not be able to transmit<br />

or receive the <strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong>’s MIDI exclusive<br />

messages.<br />

9. Installing options<br />
