Korg Trinity is a commercially successful synthesizer music workstation released by Korg in 1995. It was also the first workstation to offer modular expansion for not only sounds, but also studio-grade feature such as SCSI, ADAT, various sound engine processors, audio recording capability, and more. It was considered one of the most comprehensive music workstations, in term of features, at the time. It is affectionately referred to as the silver beast by many of its owners.
Ex-Dream Theater keyboardist Derek Sherinian in collaboration with KORG sound designer Jack Hotop created Sherinian's signature guitaristic lead sound on the Trinity in 1996.
Many users to this day feel that its successor, Triton, never had the same "sound" and the Trinity had a more airy/clear sound to it. This was because the Trinity used the ACCESS sound engine, whereas the Triton series keyboards used the newer HI synthesis engine. The Trinity sound was also processed by INFINITY. The Trinity included many waveforms which were not included in the waveform library of the Triton series, thus it was impossible to get some of the sounds of the Trinity on the Triton.
