Hi. Thanks for the answer. I have a motif es6 and will soon be getting a
Triton Extreme. If I get the 76 key extreme, it may fit on that, otherwise,
I'll have to look at the 61 key and see if there is room. I know it won't
fit on the Ion, that's for sure. But, thanks for the feedback. I am going
to really love this thing, I can tell.
