That vintage sound that cannot be recreated by any modern analogue synth, it's pure magic!

This is a magical synth. If you watch closely you see that our presenter has it hooked up via one mono out cable only. In fact this thing has three individual outs (one for each section) which obviously can be panned seperately. Thats when things become really cinematic. Pity they didn't do that here, it is quite impressive.

Instant 70's.......love KORG, always, all decades long.

Absolute behemoth in the best sense of the word. Soo much character.

What a synth, goodness gracious. The more vintage Korg I get, the more I want.

MS10 is my all time favorite synthesizer

The sound of that beast of a synth!

Plus CV ins for all the filters. Nice demo. Underrated machine!

Never heard of this until I downloaded full bucket's emulation a few days ago. My god that vst sounds HUGE. Almost real. And I can see why when the real thing is this awesome. Damn korg, where's the mini/reissue lol

Gorgeous Trident sounds. I love Korg! This is a great demo, thank you

Very enjoyable review 👍

8:55: Such a magical sound...

Been following Mathew since 2000's, always loved his music on Minus Rec and Wagon Repair, great techno!

The Korg Trident was THE dual VCO Korg. 🇨🇦👍😁

I've ran mine into an alesis quadraverb guitar processor for years to add stereo delay and reverb etc.. I have a Line 6 Firehawk pedal now and realized I should run it through there.. Some real nice ambient reverbs and delays... Ooooo going to do that now.. :) Thanx for the video, even though it's a niche product... Cheers!

Wonderful demonstration of the Trident! One of the great early analog synths.

Very Sci-Fi Love it!

Dope beast

I regret not keeping the one I had my hands on!

interesting sounding synth

You forgot the trigger select. It's the most important piece of this instrument!

Seeing how this synth works makes me realise how it could be reverse engineered by stacking 3 synths. Once you know the kind of sounds each section creates it can be simulated.

mark 303 ... For sure. The Trident and the ARP Quadra were both exactly that: literally multiple synthesizers in a box. Before OB 4-voice, Jupiter 4 and the Prophet 5 kicked of the era of envelope-per-voice synths, there were a few of these that put in one box string machines, divide-down poly synths and (in the Quadra) maybe a paraphonic lead synth, all wired to one keyboard with some sort of split and layer capability. They make interesting layers but have limitations in the voice architecture. Cool period pieces.

Sounds very late 70s - early 80s Vangelis

The synth is almost as nice as that paisley pattern jacket

I GOT IT ..ALSO IT'S MY SON FAVORITE ..

I had a Mk2 for years, got a Kenton Midi kit for it and then picked up an MS-04 pedal for it. Really wish I hadn't sold it!

I'll be honest - that's part of what I think makes the Polysix look so good. KORG is just plastered on the back in big bold letters. Same thing is true of my Yamaha SK-30. I really like those big fonts on the back of these old synths.

Differences between Trident mk I and mk II: mk II has 32 patch memories (vs 16). Saved sounds can be edited. mk II has a separate Filter Envelope in Synth section, and two extra Filter Key Tracking options mk I has three presets ("piano I, piano II and clav"), which are not included in the mk II mk II has 12 semitones pitch bend range; I *think* that mk I has 7 semitones. mk II has cooling baffles on the back Here's a mk II in action: soundcloud.com/luiscarloz/lost-years soundcloud.com/shotq/stormy-weather

A few of us on the forums reckon the mk1 sounds better. The insides were changed quite a bit on the MK2. Look like some components changed.

​@@Howdy606 Possible I guess. Although I have owned both a mk I and a mk II and didn't notice any fundamental differences in sound. They definitely use the same SSM 2044 filter chips. Those (along with stretch tuning for the oscillators and the triple BBD lines in the Strings Ensemble effect) are what gives the Trident its character imo.

@@LudvigC There was a thread where members Clusterchord & Gilwe posted demos of there MK1 & MK2. Although both excellent demo's. quite a few of us remarked that the MK1 demo sounded better over all. (Perhaps the way they were recorded). I prefer the look of the MK1 also. Has MS knobs whilst the MK2 has Polysix style knobs.
