Added multisamples
Four piano multisamples have been added.
These multisamples represent two pairs of stereo
multisamples, covering mezzo-forte (L, R) and fortissimo
L, R) dynamic levels.
• 000 A.Piano-BD ff L: fortissimo L channel
• 001 A.Piano-BD ff R: fortissimo R channel
• 002 A.Piano-BD mf L: mezzo-forte L channel
• 003 A.Piano-BD mf R: mezzo-forte R channel
On the TRITON Le 88-key model, a total of 429 preset
multisamples are available.
Multisample-related parameters
In conjunction with the added multisamples, you can now
select Piano for the “High (Low) MS Bank” parameter,
and select multisamples 000–003 for the Piano “High
(Low) Multisample” parameter in PROG 2.1-2b: High,
Low (☞PG p.6). and 2.1-3b: High, Low.
High (Low):
High (Low) MS Bank [ROM, RAM, Piano]
High (Low) Multisample
[000...424, 000...999, 000...003]
If you select Piano for “High (Low) MS Bank,” you will be
able to select 000–003 for “High (Low) Multisample.”
For details on these parameters, refer to the “Parameter
Guide.”
☞ PG p.6–7 “Program mode 2.1-2b: High, Low – High:”
New preload programs
Preloaded programs have been added to program bank D.
(☞p.11 “Voice Name List”)
These programs use the newly added multisamples.
About the bank D preloaded data
On the TRITON Le 88-key model, bank D contains
preloaded programs from D000–071.
☞ BG p.20 “Selecting and playing a program – Selecting
a program”
☞ BG p.41 “Saving data – About preloaded data and
preset data”
☞ PG p.1 “1. Program mode 1.1-1: Program” table of
preloaded programs
☞ BG p.30 “Playing with the RPPR (Realtime Pattern
Play/Recording) function”
About the initialized programs
On the TRITON Le 88-key model, the initialized programs
are located from D072–127. We recommend that you use
these programs when saving programs that you have
created, or when converting a multisample into a program
in Sampling mode.

Changes in preloaded combinations
On the TRITON Le 88-key model, the following combinations have been changed, and differ from those on the
TRITON Le 61- and 76-key models. (☞p.11 “Voice Name
List”)
• Bank A: 000, 032, 064
• Bank B: 064, 113
• Bank C: 000, 105
Combination A000: Ballad Layer EP used by the explanations in the Basic Guide and Parameter Guide has
changed to A000: Stereo Piano.

☞ PG p.31–48 “Combination mode”
☞ PG p.52 “Sequencer mode – Copy From Combi”
☞ PG p.142 “Media mode – Load a Combination”
Added demo song
One demo song has been added. (☞p.11 “Voice Name
List”)
The demo song “000: Midnight Sun” used by the explanations in the Basic Guide is now song number 001 (the
second song).

Data compatibility
Parameters that are valid on the TRITON Le 88key model but invalid on the TRITON Le 61/76key models
Program mode “High (Low) MS Bank” Piano setting
• TRITON Le 88 → TRITON Le 61/76 (.PCG file load/MIDI
data dump/MIDI parameter change):
This parameter will be maintained as internal data by
the TRITON Le 61/76-key models, but the data will be
ignored, and will not sound or function. If you save this
state as a .PCG file on the TRITON Le 61/76-key model,
it will be saved as the setting that was loaded (“High
(Low) MS Bank”: Piano).
If you use the TRITON, TRITON pro, TRITON proX,
TRITON-Rack, or TRITON STUDIO to create a .PCG
file that contains a program with a Program mode
“High (Low) MS Bank” setting of EXB8, and load this
.PCG file into the TRITON Le 88-key model, that
program will be converted to a “High (Low) MS
Bank” setting of Piano for operation.
Since the multisamples in the “High (Low) MS Bank”:
Piano bank of the TRITON Le 88-key model are
compatible with the multisamples in the EXB-PCM08,
the program will sound correctly.
For more about data compatibility between models of
the TRITON series, refer to the Parameter Guide.
☞ PG p.245–246 “Data compatibility”
