Ketron SD1 vs Motif vs Triton - 09/23/02 02:16 PM

What is the general opinion of the comparison of these keyboard racks? Should I keep the Ketron or move on and sell it?

You can't compare an SD1 to a Motif or Triton. The SD1 is a pro arranger workstation, the other 2 are more synth/studio related. Fair enough you can use a SD1 for studio work but the other 2 don't have styles on board and other features eg. vocaliser. If you are not bothered about on board styles, sell it and go for one of the others.
I have a Kurzweil K2500 and the sounds and sampling options on it are far better than any arranger keyboard, but it doesn't have styles onboard so I purchased and use this for a completely different reason.
Shop around and good luck.

Styles are the onboard rhythms that all the aranger keyboards have.
Things like the Triton I class as synthesisers (workstations). These mainly just contain sounds which you can edit to your likeing, some have hard drives, disk drive, sequencer, the odd ones have sampling capabilities etc. they are very different to arranger keyboards.
