Settings for status, MIDI channel,<br />

and pitch parameters<br />

P2: Edit-Trk Param<br />

MIDI Ch page<br />

Status<br />

Here you can specify the MIDI status of the internal tone<br />

generator assigned to each timbre. Normally when playing<br />

the internal tone generator of <strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong>, you<br />

will set this to INT. Set this to Off for timbres that you are<br />

not using. With settings of Off, EXT, or EX2, <strong>TRITON</strong><br />

<strong>Extreme</strong> will not sound. With settings of EXT or EX2, you<br />

can control an external tone generator connected via<br />

MIDI. (☞PG p.38, 43)<br />

MIDI Channel<br />

Timbres that you wish to play from <strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong>’s<br />

keyboard must be set to the global MIDI channel. Your<br />

playing on the keyboard is transmitted on the global MIDI<br />

channel, and will sound any timbre that matches this<br />

channel. Normally you will set this to Gch. When this is<br />

set to Gch, the MIDI channel of the timbre will always<br />

match the global MIDI channel, even if you change the<br />

global MIDI channel.<br />

On some preloaded combinations that use the arpeggiator,<br />

timbres assigned to the arpeggiator may not<br />

have a “Status” of INT and “MIDI Ch” of Gch.<br />

The reason for this is that these settings are for timbres<br />

that sound only when the arpeggiator is on. This<br />

is a very useful technique for creating combinations<br />

that use the arpeggiator. Refer to “Arpeggiator settings<br />

in Combination and Sequencer modes” (☞p.96,<br />

PG p.49), and study the relationship between arpeggiator<br />

assignments, “Status,” and “MIDI Channel.”<br />

Bank Select (when status=EX2)<br />

This setting is valid when “Status” is set to EX2. It specifies<br />

that Bank Select messages will be transmitted from<br />

<strong>TRITON</strong> <strong>Extreme</strong>.<br />

OSC page<br />

Force OSC Mode<br />

Normally you will set this to PRG (the oscillator will play<br />

as set by the program settings).<br />

If you wish to force a polyphonic program to sound<br />

monophonically in this combination, without re-writing<br />

the program itself, set this either to MN (Mono) or LGT<br />

(Legato). Conversely, set this to Poly if you wish to force a<br />

monophonic program to play polyphonically (☞PG p.43).<br />

OSC Select<br />

Normally you will set this to BTH (Both).<br />

If the timbre is using a program whose “Oscillator Mode”<br />

is Double, and you want only OSC1 or OSC2 (not both) to<br />

sound, set this to OSC1 (only OSC1 will sound) or OSC2<br />

(only OSC2 will sound).<br />

Portamento<br />

Normally you will set this to PRG.<br />

If you want to override the portamento setting specified in<br />

the program assigned to the timbre to be forced off, set<br />

this parameter to Off. Conversely, if you want to force the<br />

portamento to be on, or to change the portamento time,<br />

set this to a value of 001–127 to specify the portamento<br />

time.<br />

Pitch page<br />

Transpose, Detune (BPM Adjust)<br />

These parameters adjust the pitch of the timbre.<br />

• In a layer-type combination, you can set two or more<br />

timbres to the same program, and create a richer<br />

sound by using “Transpose” to shift their pitch apart<br />

by an octave or by using “Detune” to create a slight<br />

difference in pitch between the two.<br />

• In split-type combinations, you can use “Transpose”<br />

to shift the pitch (in semitone units) of the programs<br />

specified for each key zone.<br />

• If you wish to change the playback pitch of a drum<br />

program, use “Detune.” If you change the “Transpose”<br />

setting, the relationship between notes and<br />

drum sounds will change.<br />
