korg triton... nice keyboard Cheesy Grin !! I used to lust after those things lol.. quite sad i know but can't be helped, im a geek Embarassed

to hook up your synth/keyboard theres a variety of ways all of which involve a midi interface of some kind..

the easiest and most straight forward is geting yourself a joystick/midi adapter plug in your leads n thats it joystick connection on your sound card assuming you have one, and midi connections 2 the synth/keyboard.. no need for any installation of any drivers or that.. just plug n play.
Smilie_PDT failing that you could get a usb interface for about 30 pound which does the same job just through usb, with the added fuss of installing drivers though.

and as far as the other question goes... well cant really answer that since you've not really been specific in what you mean, sorry.

Yup..djandymac has given yeh' some cheap suggestions there.

Personally I would look a bit further ahead....i.e

Do you want to record the triton output into the computer?

If so you will need a good soundcard...some of which come with midi inputs on them already....so it's a kinda - all in one deal.

The card should allow you to record 2 channels @ least - the master outs from the triton.

If ya stick with one synth...you probably wont need a mixing desk...any more or decks etc you may well look to invest in a small mixing desk.

Here are some soundcard links to get ya started....

(the Emu 1212m is well regarded as great value for money)

Serato ScratchLIVE is a program for dj-ing - it's something that is used much more in a live setting than any sort of production environment, and allows you to use Vinyl/CD decks to control your digital audio files on the computer.

As for attaching a MIDI controller, you can use either USB or MIDI to connect most, depending on the keyboard.
