korg m50 or keep classic korg triton

I am debating on wether to keep my classic korg triton studio or sell it and buy the korg m-50 but not to sure about this.There are a few reason why sould and shouldnt buy this for one i have the korg triton and i think alot of the same sounds or similar one are on the m-50.But the triton is alittle beat up already with a faulty button and a few faulty keys am kinda sick of it cause ive had it since 2000.there are alot of cool things that the m-50 has that the triton doesnt have like chord memory,computer intergration,and effects presets which would make it easy for me.Does anyone have either of these workstations to offer so knowledge.

i have a trinity and here u go on about complaining about a triton sheesh lol. Really though I think thats something you really have to decide for yourself. Personally I wouldn't do it I'd just fix the Triton I don't find comptuer intergration to be that great.

you might have a point about fixing the triton but man i brand new m50 looks good.Well ive actually been debating on wether to get a few new things like dave smiths mopho,novation x station,or microkorg xl but not sure what will give me pure awesome synths.Ive had the original micro but returned it cause i needed the money and i went to guitar center and was on the micro xl which had phatter sounds but wasnt to sure cause i wanted something multitimbral so i could use it on my triton in sequencer mode.This mopo thing looks cool and this x station looks nice to and ive heard some sounds and i like alot of them,But if you had to decide what would you get for external sounds?

When I record audio from my triton, and I always record it dry. Sometimes it's necessary to access the effects in order to turn them off. For example, you don't want to record a lead that's dripping in reverb, because it won't sit in the mix properly. Effects should be added in Sonar if possible.

I've never use audiosnap (I have nothing against it, just haven't tried it). When I record a keyboard part, I tend to slice it into smaller bits and make manual adjustments to it to tighten it up. 

I'n not sure what you mean when you say that you might record live if you're using a pure synth.

Well i might just get a novation xiosynth because its very affordable and has some good sounds to it but ive heard it has some hardware problems about it.So if i do get it its perpose will just be a extrenal module and midi controller instead of taking my huge korg triton that wieghts like 60 lbs.Still kinda debating about the microkorg and xl to but the vocoder adds that extra 100 dollers to it and i dont plan to use it.

OK - I guess I should have specified that I don't know what you mean by "pure synth". Do you mean a synth that's not a workstation like a triton or a motif? BTW, I would bet that since most of us use Sonar, that very few of us would use our workstation synths for sequencing or sampling. But obviously those a great features for playing live.

I guess I can't really help with that. I've never sequenced or quantized on a synth. I just play. I record the MIDI and then fiddle with it in Sonar. You'll have to determine whether you want to keep you old workflow or not.
