#EXTREME SAMPLE CONVERTER KE ARCHIVE#
In fact, the new instrument's overall value for money is enhanced since the extra waveforms are largely sourced from previously optional PCM cards: the piano, orchestral, Trance Attack and Vintage Archive cards are represented in their entirety, whilst Dance Extreme, Studio Essentials and Pianos/Classic Keyboards are present in 'best of' form. More significantly, perhaps, Extreme has a lot more samples in ROM - 160MB to Studio's 48MB.
For example, gone is Studio's SCSI connector, but in its place are two USB sockets, joined by a Compact Flash/Microdrive memory card slot. However, while it loses a handful of Studio features, Extreme has been enhanced in a number of ways. In some ways, Triton Extreme is to Triton Studio what Triton LE was to the original Triton: it repackages the essence of the Studio at a significantly lower price point. After using a touchscreen, so much other music-technology hardware feels less immediate, and it's still centre-stage here. At least the most remarkable piece of front-panel real estate, present on Korg's flagships since the Trinity, remains largely unchanged. The physical layout of the instrument is largely the same as what has gone before, and sonically and operationally Extreme is very much one of the Triton family. Whatever the reasoning, and whilst I personally miss the sleek, now classic, silverness, you shouldn't judge a synth by its colour. Without dwelling on aesthetic issues, it's hard to see why Korg would go for this colour change and still keep the Triton name, but then I suppose the new case is not so expensive to produce, and of course the new Triton once again stands out from the crowd.
The latest Triton has a deep metallic-blue finish that reminds you of synths from the days before the release of Korg's Trinity - the original silver machine from 1995. So close is the competition in this market that it seems that anyone entering it has to produce a silver- or chrome-liveried instrument: Motif ES certainly is, and even Roland's imminent Fantom X will adopt this colour scheme.
Yet here we are with what feels like Korg's answer to that challenge: it adds massive amounts of waveform ROM and USB connectivity to the high polyphony count and integrated sampling, sequencing and synthesis functions that the Triton family has come to represent. It has to be a coincidence: Korg's new Extreme flavour of Triton workstation must have been under development before Yamaha released their enhanced Motif ES (reviewed in January of this year). The Triton Extreme is a bold new colour, but does the rest of it measure up? Korg have redefined the workstation synth many times, and each time, it's become harder to see how they can better their previous achievements. The basic 61-note synth-action Triton Extreme (SOS used both the 61- and 88-note keyboards for this review). The standard error of the mean is the expected value of the standard deviation of means of several samples, this is estimated from a single sample as:Ĭopyright © 2000-2021 StatsDirect Limited, all rights reserved. If a variable y is a linear (y = a + bx) transformation of x then the variance of y is b² times the variance of x and the standard deviation of y is b times the variance of x. When distributions are approximately normal, SD is a better measure of spread because it is less susceptible to sampling fluctuation than (semi-)interquartile range. For any symmetrical (not skewed) distribution, half of its values will lie one semi-interquartile range either side of the median, i.e. Semi-interquartile range is half of the difference between the 25th and 75th centiles. Interquartile range is the difference between the 25th and 75th centiles. This is not the case when there are extreme values in a distribution or when the distribution is skewed, in these situations interquartile range or semi-interquartile are preferred measures of spread. SD is the best measure of spread of an approximately normal distribution. All three terms mean the extent to which values in a distribution differ from one another. The spread of a distribution is also referred to as dispersion and variability. The unbiased estimate of population variance calculated from a sample is: Variance is usually estimated from a sample drawn from a population. SD is calculated as the square root of the variance (the average squared deviation from the mean). The standard deviation of the mean (SD) is the most commonly used measure of the spread of values in a distribution.
