Korg Trinity V3 Pro X 88 Keys WorkstationWith HRD and PSB Boards
Korg have upgraded their well-established Trinity range of sample-based workstation synths with a new board offering the sonic capabilities of a Z1 polysynth. In the updated Trinity range, the Solo board of the Trinity Plus, Pro and ProX models has been replaced by the MOSS (Multi Oscillator Synthesis System, the name that Korg gave to the multi-synthesis technology used in the Prophecy and Z1) board. New Trinity models ready-fitted with the MOSS board are identified by a new suffix: V3. Like the Z1, the MOSS board gives you 13 models, or oscillator types. These can be assigned to the two main oscillators of a MOSS Program (also provided are a sub-oscillator and a white noise generator), while the oscillator outputs are routed through a subtractive synthesis architecture with two multimode resonant filters (with low-pass, high-pass, band-pass, band-reject and dual band-pass filter options and a choice of serial or parallel configuration) and an amplifier section. In addition there are four EGs and four LFOs, all freely assignable, and an amplifier EG. The output from the amplifier is then routed through the Trinity's multi-effects section, which has two master effects and up to three or four insert effects, for use with multisample and drumkit Programs respectively, or up to eight insert effects on Combi and sequencer. As you have two oscillators, the number and variety of potential oscillator combinations is very large, and so a good way to create new sounds is simply to take an existing Program and try out different oscillator combinations. For further editing, you can stick to the familiar territory of the MOSS board's subtractive synthesis architecture, or you can delve into editing the oscillator types. All Oscillator Type parameters are contained on a single LCD page (selected by pressing the front-panel P2 button), and the large graphical layout presents the parameters in an uncluttered and accessible manner; you can also switch quickly between pages for oscillators one and two using the Osc1 and Osc2 'tabs' at the bottom of the screen, so one moment you can be editing, say, a VPM oscillator and the next a Standard oscillator.
