Korg Forums

Hi, I'm trying to find the serial numbers range for the very first Korg Trinitys that were sold in Canada in 1996-7 ( 61 keys version). I'm trying to track down one of these silver beasts to buy, and instead of guess work, it would be more more precise if I could pinpoint the genuine articles using ...

Hi Kurt,

How unfortunate. Have you checked behind the keyboard, there is a "dimmer" small bud, not sure if this could help but you can try to rotate it one way or the other.

Otherwise, I'd locate a keyboard tech in your area who could troubleshoot for you.

All the best!

Hi, all, I was finally able to find a USB floppy drive to download Trinity patches online, and save them on a floppy to then feed it to the silver beast. At the moment, I'm curious about 01/W patches. I found a set, but it's missing a few I'm particularly looking for. I'm specifically interested in ...

Well, I decided to try something. I have 16 channels of data on the Trinity sequencer. So I setup MIDI out and MIDI in cables from the Trinity to the sound card. Then I paired each track in my DAW with a corresponding "Receiving" channel. So : Track 1 receives from Channel 1, Track 2 from channel 2 ...

Thank you Timo,

I just realized std means standard, in the Trinity it is called std MIDI files = SMF. Duh.

I'll get myself a floppy and get through this!

Question: so all this transfer cannot be done via MIDI cables, correct? I'm having to order a floppy drive online, visited 8 stores today in town, nothing was found.

In fact I think it's called STD (wahhh?) format 0 or 1. Do you know how I decide which to pick? I'm on a PC, so it's going to be processed on a PC.

Thanks!

OK, thank you! I went in the global and it's at channel 01. But I also found something else under the SAVE option, to Save std MIDI file. So I saved the song that way and will find myself a floppy reader to get this on my computer. I'll let you guys know if it works. Could help someone else at some ...

Wow, so anybody knows how to download a MIDI song from the Trinity into a computer?

I'm revisiting an old album and want to bring an entire song from my [Trinity HDR V3] sequencer into my DAW so I can replace certain instruments with VSTis and have better control of the mix. It uses the whole 16 tracks. Problem: I've been out of the loop for years and I can't figure this out. OK ...

I own Alchemy and many of their libraries, as well as third-party ones. It is indeed a very unique tool, their "potential" future will be missed! I wonder if it's irreversible or...

Hi Robert, I was able to find a disk I had made of my sounds BEFORE updating my former Trinity. So I just loaded this PCG file into this V3 and so far it sounds perfectly aligned with what I remember the patches sounding like. I especially hear this with some of the patches I had modified to create ...

Hi Robert,

I found these disks in my pile. Is this what I need to do a factory reset? Notice the version is older than the one I have now...

Which ones do I need, and which one should I leave aside? How about the Playback Sampler?

Thanks!

I normally would save the PCG/Combi settings along with the sequencer's songs. That's how I noticed the difference in sound. But I haven't tried the Factory reset option. Thanks for the suggestion!

Thank you Robert! I'll have to take this in very slowly... The first Trinity, I got no options for it. Just plain silver beast. The V3 I now have has options I don't know what to do with. I only got it so I could retrieve my songs. Do you know if a Trinity rack would offer me the same banks as the ...
