Spectrasonics Trilian Bass Virtual Instrument Software
Tax included.
Software Bass Virtual Instrument Plug-in with Acoustic, Electric, and Synthesized Bass Sounds - Mac/PC AAX, VST, AU, RTAS
Spectrasonics Trilian is a comprehensive and versatile virtual instrument dedicated to real-time performance of acoustic and electric basses, along with cutting-edge synth-bass tones. The instrument offers musicians and producers a large library of production-ready sounds, from deep earth-shattering synths and funky slap basses to meticulously sampled acoustic uprights. If you prefer to carefully craft your own tones, powerful synthesis features like FM, ring modulation, and polyphonic waveshaping, plus an enhanced arpeggiator provide you with even more controls for expanding the sonic palette of your productions.
The acoustic and electric basses are sampled at an extremely high level of detail resulting in a 34GB library. The combination of the software's automatic selection of legato and release articulations as the user plays along with the round-robin variations produce natural sounding basslines, especially in the case of repeated notes.
Multisampled dynamic slides let notes realistically slide from one to another, and each of the basses feature multichannel mixing between phase-locked microphone/amplifier and direct outputs of each bass. Over 60 different 4, 5, 6 and 8 string electric basses are presented in fingered, picked, fretless, slapped, tapped, and muted technique variations. The Acoustic Bass is the most detailed instrument Spectrasonics has ever released, with 4 audio channels and over 21,000 samples used to create the single instrument.
Powered by STEAM Engine technology, Trilian features core library integration with Spectrasonics' Omnisphere virtual synthesizer, allowing Trilian's sounds to be used within the Omnisphere environment for further sound design and keyboard/bass splits. Groove Lock for Trillian arpeggiators is also supported with Stylus RMX, with perfect synchronization between all 3 Spectrasonics instruments.
The Custom Controls interface on the Main page of each patch brings out the most useful and interesting sound modification controls for that specific patch, and a single control can even modify numerous parameters to create unique FX. The Custom Controls are all MIDI-learnable and automatable, and users can create their own configurations of Custom Controls.
For synthesizer sounds, the software features powerful and juicy 4-pole filter algorithms with oscillating resonance that are ideal for electronic bass. Hundreds of synthesizer sound sources were created using over 30 of the most coveted hardware synthesizers. Multiple powerful editing controls are available for sound design, including the FlexMod modulation system, dual filters with more than 19 filter types, 6 multistage looping envelopes, 6 fully featured LFOs, dual morphing modulation, FX racks with modulation, and much more.
Trillian is compatible with Mac and Windows. It runs as standalone software or operates within AU, VST, and AAX formats.
