Easy combination editing
Selecting a program for each timbre 1–8
(Program Select tab)
Switching the program assigned to each timbre 1–8 will
change the sound of the combination.
There are three ways to switch programs. For details on
each procedure, refer to the appropriate page of explana-
tions.
• Selecting a program from the TRITON Extreme
by bank/program number
by program category
• Selecting a program by receiving a MIDI program
change
MIDI program changes cannot switch programs for a
Timbre whose “Status” is set to other than INT.
☞ For details on the factory-set program names, refer to
the VNL.
Status
This specifies the status of MIDI and the internal tone gen-
erator for each timbre 1–8. Normally, you will set this to
INT
if you want the TRITON Extreme’s internal tone gen-
erator to sound. Set this to Off for timbres you are not
using. If the status is set to Off, EXT, or EX2, that timbre
will not sound. The EXT and EX2 settings allow the timbre
to control a connected external MIDI device. (
