Korg EXB-MOSS Z1-Based Synth Board for Triton Series (6 Voice)

The Triton Series can be expanded by the installation of the ultimate DSP tone generator - the 13 oscillator 6-voice MOSS (Multi-Oscillator Synthesis System) tone generator featured on the Z1. This lets you use all synthesis methods Ö PCM, analog, VPM (variable phase modulation), and physical modeling Ö on a single instrument. When the MOSS tone generator is installed, 128 MOSS programs are added. You can create combination programs that use multiple MOSS timbres together with HI sounds.

The MOSS sound generator consists of Voice, EG, and LFO sections. The voice section contains 2 powerful oscillator blocks OSC1/OSC2 which let you combine up to 2 of 13 types of oscillator algorithm (resonance, organ model, electric piano model, standard, ring modulation, VPM, brass model, reed model, and more), a sub oscillator, and a noise generator. The voice section also contains a filter block featuring 2 multi-mode filters that cover the range from analog synth sounds to complex sounds such as the body resonance of violin or guitar, or even human voice. To this are added 5 EG units and 4 LFO units, providing a rich variety of tonal and pitch changes for each voice.
