Are those the same samples that come with the Triton?

Well, I was truly sorry that I found this on YouTube. And I am glad I did not see these guys when they were in LA.  A very lackluster performance of Epitaph. I think that whatever the keyboardist is playing for the “Mellotron” may possibly be the worst sounding samples I have yet to hear. And the end is rather embarrassing as he bends the pitch up and then releases the wheel before he releases the chord. The vocalist’s phrasing is completely off… Just a bit depressing after seeing Crimson in 1969…


 
 
After seeing 5 seconds of this, In think it is the 21st century schizoid band. And yes, it does suck. They were using stock Korg, "tape sampler" shit.
