Had my trusted old Korg Triton Classic for over a decade now, and absolutely loved it in every way. Easy to use, great presets, brilliant UI. I do feel things have now moved on, so looking for a replacement. Unfortunately I haven't kept up to speed on newer models, so any advice or recommendations. Budget probably less than £1,000

Requirements: Easy to use UI (I don't do manuals), good range of preset combis to play out-the-box, sequencer, aftertouch (must have aftertouch!), not fussed about sampling

Styles: Dance, electronic, ambient, orchestral, analogue
Not: Jazz, Blues, Ethnic, Organ.

Any pointers?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Dan

Kronos would be a likely refresher for the Triton, but out of budget.

M3, within budget, but not sure it's come along enough from the Triton, Spec seems to suggest it has, but listening to it, much of a muchness, seems to be more of the same old.

Other brands are looking favourable, just not sure what I'm looking at re models etc.

I'd look at a Roland Fantom G, same concept as the Triton but as you say, tech moved on, should be able to find one under £1K without an issue.
