1. Connecting the power cable

Connect the included power cable to the AC power supply inlet of the TRITON STUDIO, and then con- nect the other end of the cable to an AC outlet.

2.Analog audio output connec- tions

Connect a set of amplified monitor speakers or your audio system to the TRITON STUDIO.

If you play back the TRITON STUDIO through your stereo audio system, be aware that high volumes may damage your speakers. Be careful not to raise the vol- ume excessively.

Connecting the AUDIO OUTPUT (MAIN) L/MONO, R, (INDIVIDUAL) 1, 2, 3, and 4 jacks to the INPUT jacks of your mixer or powered monitor system.

L/MONO and R are the main outputs. If you are out- putting in stereo, make your connections using the (MAIN) L/MONO jack and the R jack. If you are out- putting in mono, make your connection to the (MAIN) L/MONO jack.

The (INDIVIDUAL) 1, 2, 3, and 4 jacks are used to out- put specific sounds independently. For example, you can use these to apply an external effect to the snare sound of a drum kit.

When you are sampling, and want to hear the sounds played by the TRITON STUDIO’s sequencer while you sample only the external audio source, send the source to (INDIVIDUAL) 1 and 2. If you want to monitor this sound, you can connect (INDIVIDUAL) 1 and 2 jacks to your mixer, and monitor the sound via your mixer. (☞For details on routing methods, refer to p.140–)

Headphones

If you are using headphones, connect them to the headphone jack of the TRITON STUDIO.

The TRITON STUDIO’s headphone jack will output the same signal as (MAIN) L/MONO and R.

If you are using (INDIVIDUAL) 1, 2, 3, and 4, connect these jacks to your mixer, and use the headphone jack of your mixer to monitor the sound.

3.Analog audio input connec- tions

You can input external analog audio sources, and sample them or process them with the internal effects and output them from the OUTPUT jacks.

Connect mics or the OUTPUT jacks of your external audio equipment to the AUDIO INPUT 1 and 2 jacks.

4.Digital audio input/output con- nections

Digital audio output

The same audio signal present at the TRITON STUDIO’s AUDIO OUTPUT (MAIN) L/MONO and R jacks can be output in digital format to a DAT, MD, or digital multi- track recorder that can accept a digital audio input with a sample frequency of 48 kHz or 96 kHz.

Use an optical cable to connect the S/P DIF OUT (MAIN) jack to the optical digital input jack of your DAT, MD, or digital multitrack recorder.

The [VOLUME] slider does not affect the volume of this output jack.

Digital audio input

TRITON STUDIO can accept a digital audio input from a DAT or other digital device that can output digital audio at a sampling frequency of 48 kHz or 96 kHz. This signal can be input to the L and R channels, then sampled or pro- cessed by the internal effects and output from the OUT- PUT jacks.

Use an optical cable to connect the optical digital out- put jacks of your DAT etc. to the S/P DIF IN jack.

If the EXB-mLAN option is installed, digital audio can be input/output via the mLAN connector. If the EXB-DI option is installed, digital audio can be out- put via the DIGITAL OUT jack. (☞PG p.286)

5. Connecting pedals

Foot pedal connections

A foot pedal can be used to control various synthesis and effect parameters.

Connect an optional expression pedal such as the Korg XVP-10 or EXP-2 to the rear panel ASSIGNABLE PEDAL jack.

The function controlled by the foot pedal is specified in Global: P2 “Foot Pedal Assign” (☞p.125, PG p.146, 252)

Foot switch connections

A foot switch controls sostenuto, soft pedal on/off, arpeg- giator on/off, to select programs or combinations, and to start/stop the sequencer etc.

Connect an optional foot switch such as the Korg PS-1 to the rear panel ASSIGNABLE SWITCH jack.

The function assigned to the foot switch and the polarity of the foot switch can be set in Global: P2 “Foot Switch Assign,” and “Foot Switch Polarity” (☞p.125, PG p.146, 251)

Damper pedal connections

This pedal applies a piano style damper effect as you play. Connect an optional footswitch to the DAMPER jack of the TRITON STUDIO. If a Korg DS-1H is connected, half- damper effects can be produced.

The polarity of the pedal is set in Global P2: Controller “Damper Polarity” and the sensitivity is set in Global P0 “Half Damper Calibration.” (☞PG p.137, 146)
