The Triton Le, released in 2002, was a stripped-down, cost-reduced version of the original Triton. It was only available in a 61-key version (with a lesser quality keyboard than the Triton). It instead included the more specialised KARMA music system.

The Korg KARMA, released in 2001, featured the Triton synthesis technology with 2 PCM slots and MOSS slot but without the sampling functionality. The Triton-Rack also supported the EXB-DI 'Digital Interface' board providing ADAT output and Word Clock, or EXB-mLAN option featuring mLAN output. Like the Classic models, the Triton-Rack featured sampling and could also support Korg's MOSS synthesizer expansion board (EXB-MOSS), distinguishing a so-expanded Triton-Rack as the only way to obtain MOSS synthesis (essentially identical to Korg's Z1 and extremely similar to Korg's Prophecy) in rack-mounted form, with the additional benefit of the Triton's seven-total effects processors (more numerous, variable, and capable than those in Z1 or Prophecy), albeit with 6-voice polyphony compared to the Z1's 12 (or 18 with optional expansion.) Though not equipped with a keyboard, it had advantages over Triton Classic 61, Pro, and ProX models, including storage of up to eight (instead of only two) EXB-PCM ROM boards containing additional sampled waveforms, many extra sound Program and Combi memory locations, expandability to maximum 96MB sample RAM (instead of only 64MB) and featured a built-in S/PDIF digital audio output (not available on the Classics). The oversized touchscreen was replaced with a smaller, more conventional 240圆4-dot graphic LCD, soft-keys under the LCD, data wheel, and cursor keys (essentially the same user interface as the Triton Le, Karma, and Korg TR keyboards). Since musicians would use it as a sound module rather than a complete workstation, requiring a separate keyboard to control it via MIDI, it was designed with different abilities. The Triton-Rack was the rackmount version of the Triton.

Triton Classic is so popular that it was recreated as software synth (standalone and VST) and is widely used in music production, while hardware Tritons are still widely used by gigging musicians.

Triton Extreme added in-track sampling support, allowing stereo samples to be recorded in context with a MIDI sequence and automatic triggering of the samples at their proper locations in the sequence during playback. Onboard sampler was another big thing, as well as 'instant sequencing' in latest firmware versions of Triton Classic and all subsequent Tritons (it lets to convert a combi into a song where all parts (programs) are instantly set up as a tracks of a song). Although it lost the sequencer audio tracks, digital input and output, but these options were rarely installed in Trinity, so KORG did the right thing dumping them. All this essentially made Triton a best selling synth of 2000s (its successors M3/M50 and later Krome sound engines are essentially improved Tritons with better UI and more wave ROM).

The HI Synthesis engine also provides dual filters per digital oscillator configurable to either a series 24dB/octave resonant low-pass setting or else a parallel 12dB/octave high-pass plus 12dB/octave low-pass combination (which together can also be used similar to band-pass filter). But what made Triton a killer were dual polyphonic arpeggiators! Many of Triton factory preloaded sounds use these arpeggiators and are simply impossible without them. The biggest improvement of Triton was the sound: new multisample and better processing, combined with five insert effects per program. The original Triton introduced many improvements over the Trinity, like 62-note polyphony, double arpeggiator, RPPR phrase recorder, onboard sampler, greater effects availability, processing power, routing, and added audio-input external processor capability, larger synthesis modulation matrix, faster operating system, significantly faster touchscreen response, sample ROM expandability, enhanced UI including category search (ability to browse through related groups of sounds like pianos, brass, strings, etc.), redesigned sequencer, more realtime controllers including knobs, and availability of multitimbral MOSS synthesis expansion (whereas Trinity's MOSS expansion was monotimbral).

The Triton 'Classic' followed the Trinity's naming conventions of the Pro and Pro X being designated to models featuring 76 and 88 keys respectively (that naming system actually started with previous 01/w series, also available with 61 keys (base and -FD models), 76 (01/wPro) and 88 (01/wProX). The two ranges are aesthetically and functionally very similar. The Korg Triton line is considered the direct descendant of the earlier Korg Trinity line of workstations.
