"Brief description of the Trident: This synthesizer is a polyphonic, true analogue synth. Unlike the Korg Trident MKI, it has four banks of eight memories for the synth section (as opposed to 2x8), an additional VCO and envelope generator. Not to mention improved stability in tuning and other undesirable issues which the MKI suffered. This is in part due to the improved power and cooling systems (the MKII has a big heat sink fin on the back).
The Korg Trident got its name from the three part architechture. The synthesizer is the first part, Brass section the second and Strings the third. The programmable memories can only save synthesizer patches, the brass and string patches cannot be saved. The synth section has two VCOs, a VCF section and an envelope generator for both the VCF and VCA sections. The Trident has a nice Flanger effect that can be applied to any one of the sections. It can be configured to several diffent key assign modes so that the synth, brass and string sections can be played seperately or in unison. It also has a pitch bend and 'trill' joystick. With all parts combined you can get some really nice atmospheric, sweeping pad sounds. The strings are really nice - true analogue warmth, a 'bowing' and 'vibrato' effect can be added, and the brass section can be triggered in several different modes." Inside a KORG Trident.
