Spectrasonics Spectrasonics Trillian Total Bass Module Software

With its comprehensive design, Spectrasonics' Trilian Total Bass Module brings many different types of bass together into one extraordinary-sounding virtual instrument. It is designed from the ground up to be one of the most versatile bass virtual instruments available today with a new level of expressive, real-time performance for acoustic and electric bass, plus cutting-edge synth bass tones with powerful editing and extraordinary sound quality. Trilian Total Bass Module is the successor to Spectrasonics' award-winning Trilogy bass instrument, offering deeper control of musical expression and much greater flexibility of sound shaping. Trilian's 34 GB library is 10 times the size of Trilogy and features all-new acoustic, electric and synth basses.

Powered by next-generation STEAM Engine technology, Trilian is the first instrument to feature core library integration with Spectrasonics' flagship Omnisphere synth—allowing Trilian's sounds to be used within the Omnisphere environment for further sound design and keyboard/bass splits.

Performance
The incredible acoustic and electric basses in Trilian are sampled at an extremely high level of detail. The combination of the software's intuitive, automatic selection of legato and release articulations as the user plays, as well as the extensive round robin variations introduced for natural-sounding bass lines with repeated notes, create a more dynamic and subtle playing experience. Newly developed multisampled dynamic slides let notes realistically slide from one to another. Each of the new basses feature multichannel mixing between phase-locked microphone/amplifier and direct outputs of each bass.

Bass Instruments
Over 60 different 4-, 5-, 6- and 8-string electric basses are presented in fingered, picked, fretless, slapped, tapped and muted technique variations, providing a huge variety of sounds for any musical genre. Highlights of the new electric basses include a Music Man 5-string Studio bass, Chapman Stick, Lakland Rock P-bass, Clean Fender Jazz bass, a Hardcore Rock bass, a Retro 1960's Epiphone Viola bass and much more.

Trilian's stunning Acoustic Bass is the most detailed instrument Spectrasonics has ever released, with four audio channels and over 21,000 samples in just one instrument. All of this, combined with Trilian's high-resolution streaming of the sounds, puts a depth of realism into performances that is truly inspiring.

Sound Creation
For synth sounds, Trilian features specially developed 4-Pole Juicy and Power Filter algorithms with oscillating resonance that are ideal for electronic bass. Hundreds of synth sound sources were created using over 30 exotic and highly coveted hardware synthesizers—from the original Moog Taurus Pedals to the latest boutique analog modular synthesizers. A multitude of extremely 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, six full-featured LFOs, dual morphing modulation, modulatable FX racks and much more.

Trilian's FX racks include all of the renowned FX processors from Omnisphere and Stylus RMX, including a wide variety of amp and speaker models, distortions, dynamics processors, equalizers, chorus, phasers, flangers, delays, reverbs, unique specialty FX and more.

Legacy
As Spectrasonics' next-generation bass instrument, Trilian includes enhanced, remastered versions of Trilogy's core library-taking it to a new level of sound and expression. As a special bonus, Spectrasonics' original "Bass Legends" multisamples have also been remastered and included in the Trilian library, featuring Marcus Miller, John Patitucci, and Abraham Laboriel (bass sounds which some hardware synth users may remember from popular Roland Xpansion boards and the classic MBD-1 rack bass module).

Integration
Trilian is the first virtual instrument to feature core library integration with Spectrasonics award-winning, flagship Omnisphere synthesizer. Its complete sound library can be opened within Omnisphere for further synthesis and expanded performance possibilities.

Trilian's Arpeggiator features the Groove Lock technology Spectrasonics pioneered in Omnisphere and Stylus RMX's Time Designer-which means that with a simple drag-and-drop action, the feel of bass patterns created with Trilian's Arpeggiator can be perfectly synchronized between all three of Spectrasonics instruments.

Interface
The new 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, Automatable, and users can create their own configurations of Custom Controls.
