I've been looking to buy a workstation, and I was looking at the Korg Triton, but don't know what type to get, the classic, the LE, The extreme, ect. I'm trying to get the best value. The best posable keyboard I can get for the best price, if I have to spend a little more to get a better one I will.
Thanks in advanced

i have the studio88 fully loaded rocks the shit outta the extreme in my opinion

I have 16mb more sounds (when fully loaded but i can't load the last 16mb only accepts 7 cards so i have the same amount of sounds at one time as the extreme)

Hard disk recording and streaming

a beautiful silver synth =)

Extreme = usb (v handy) and tubes a bit of a gimmick but its there so you gotta use it.

Tritons just depends what you need studio is still flagship (I thought damn when they released the extreme ive been sold a lemon now ive played and read what i have the studio ids defo my choice)

Classic a lovely board only takes 2 exbs rack 8 boards but there are 9 in total studio comes loaded with exb8

The studio hard to come by secondhand atleast here in the uk (seems those that bought it love it and i understand why)

Extreme you might get some kid put one up on ebay

Classic a great bargain second hand

Rack if you stuck for room get a another controller absolute bargain on ebay ( inearly bought one of these as an addition)

also check

www.irishacts.com
www.tritonhaven.com

Both u will find most peeps talk the extreme (but check the long term users a different story will appear) cos if it vwas new users it would be the oasys but they can't afford just like me so therfore the extreme rocks as the latest pice of kit.

Ps if you do go triton or karma get karmalab Karma triton or karma mw for $100 best buy i8 have in my studio

If you can afford it get the Kurzweil K2600. As far as sound and options the only keyboard better is the Korg Oasys and that costs 10k. You can get a k2600 for about $2800. You can also get the smaller K2661 for about $2200.
A Triton is absolutely no match for a Kurzweil. If you don't believe me go ask a pro at your nearest music store.

Yamaha motiff sounded real dope when i heard it, I heard it used in some ones beats (mainly for bass and a few other lil sounds etc) and it sounded real dope.. i much prefered the bass from that then the basses on the korg triton..

Couldnt comment on the others tho as i havent heard them
