My guess is that he either means non-weighted keys, or keys with a quick whatever-it's-called, the thing that makes the keys return to position when you let go of them, so that you can play one key fast several times in a row...

No I mean, for example if I want to play with an organ sound and a piano then I want just to be able to switch without writing in the numbers, and I've seen this "quick keys" so then you just push that button and yyou have changed sound

Then your original question is a bit misleading, since it has nothing to do with the keys whatsoever, but I'll help you anyway

Just next to the screen, you have a Up and Down button, which can be used to switch program/combi Up or Down.

What you'll usually want to do then is to save the sounds you want so that they lie right after each other. I'll give you an example (I don't know what the User banks are called on the triton, but let's call the bank D)

You want to have a piano sound at first, and then press Up to switch to a string sound, and then Up again to switch to an organ sound, then you'll want to place the patches like this:

D-001: Piano
D-002: Strings
D-003: Organ

Now if you play the piano sound and hit the Up button, it will change to the strings.

This can actually be done with a pedal too, if you buy a pedal like this one, and plug it into the correct pedal input (can't remember the name of it atm), you can assign it to Patch Change Up (or something), and you will be able to do the very same thing, but without occupying one of your hands to do it.

I've never tried the triton out in stores, but I suppose that the menus are somewhat similar to the M3 and M50, so I'll say how you do it there, and it should help.

You can actually do it in both Combi AND Program mode, I'll show you both:

Combi mode: Page Select --> Timbre Param (P3 on the M3) --> Pitch --> Bend Range

Program Mode: Page Select --> OSC/Pitch (P2 on the M3) --> OSC1 Pitch (and OSC2 Pitch if you use 2 oscilators)

In Program mode, you should even be able to assign the range differently depending on whether you pitch it up or down. As an example, you could to like Jordan Rudess always does: make the pitch bend go one whole step up, but an octave down. This way you could get cool whammy-bar effects without affecting your up-bends.


Hope it helped
