Korg have dominated the top‑end workstation market for several years with their Triton range, but apart from the rack version, there have been no lower‑priced spin‑offs. The Triton Le keyboard changes that, offering many of the Triton's powerful features at a more affordable price. If you've been living quietly in Outer Mongolia, with nothing but a nose‑flute for company, it's possible you might have overlooked Korg's exploration of a concept they call the 'Music Workstation'. After a massive hit with 1988's M1, Korg released a succession of these increasingly sophisticated 'complete studio' instruments, the culmination of which has been the mighty Triton workstation.
This is Korg's most powerful packaging of sequencer, synthesizer, sampler and effects unit, with expandability options, superb factory sounds, and more depth than Stephen Hawking in a mineshaft. Korg made few compromises with the Triton, and its price tag reflected that. Over a year later, they followed it up with a rack version, which offered greater expandability and digital connectivity. Now, another year on, the Triton Le is upon us. This re‑instates the keyboard‑based format, but retails for around £700 less than the original (in the UK, at least — in the USA the price for the Le has yet to be fixed at the time of going to press). Clearly Korg must have juggled a few features and cut some corners to produce this 'entry‑level' version, so the first question for me was: 'how much of the Triton is left?' Now, I'm no Agatha Christie, so please don't be disappointed if I kill the suspense here and now.
The answer is: 'plenty!' Before I plough on into the review proper, I'd recommend that you check out the comprehensive review of the Triton keyboard (see ) and also the Triton Rack (). Since the rack has a slightly different feature‑set (eg. Digital output, mLAN connectvity, eight expansion slots), I'll keep things simple by concentrating mainly on the differences between the two keyboards. Thus, if I refer back to 'Triton' in my comparisons, it's the original Triton keyboard I mean.
After unpacking the Triton Le, I was first struck by how light and slender it was. Part of this can be attributed to the external power supply: a little box complete with a switch and a four‑pin connector.
It seems strange to have a switch on a floor‑based adaptor, especially when the synth itself already has a power button. Surely it's just another thing to get trodden on and accidentally switched off, in the chaos of live performance? The Le is reasonably solidly constructed, although I would recommend care with its thin plastic edge trimmings, which are a little on the flimsy side.

The velocity‑ and aftertouch‑sensitive keyboard feels light and is not as substantial as that of the Triton. Yet, overall, I couldn't fail to admire the Le's style: sleek and chic are descriptions that came to mind. The brushed silver metal finish exudes a feeling of cool quality, and only those plastic edges lower the tone slightly. • 61‑ or 76‑note keyboard, with velocity and aftertouch.
• Four Banks of Programs (A‑D) plus a GM sound set. • Three Banks of Combinations (A‑C). • 62‑note polyphony.
• 64Mb maximum sample RAM. • 32Mb of waveform ROM. • 200,000‑note sequencer (resolution 192ppqn). • Two main stereo effects processors, one stereo insert effect, master EQ.
• SmartMedia storage slot. • External power supply.
• 240 x 64‑pixel display. • Two main and two auxiliary outputs. • Optional EXB‑SMPL sampling board. So what changes have come about in the transition to Triton Le? If you start with the rear panel, as I did in time‑honoured reviewer fashion, the first thing that strikes you is the blanking plate: a sign that the Le is ready and waiting to accept the optional EXB‑SMPL sampling board (sampling was, of course, standard on the Triton). As I also received this board to try, I'll talk about it in more detail later.
The Le has a main stereo pair and just two individual outputs (compared to the four individuals of the Triton) and it has also dropped the dedicated PC/Mac interface (no loss there, in my opinion). The Triton's assignable pedal, switch and damper inputs are all present and correct, as are the obligatory three MIDI sockets. I was pleasantly surprised to see the inclusion of a SmartMedia slot at the rear, something neither the original Triton nor the Rack has.
