Spectrasonics Trilian

Yet another awesome product by the talented folks at Spectrasonics. Trilian is arguably the most powerful one-stop bass solution.

With its wide range of high quality-sounding bass presets (from upright acoustic samples to modern synth sounds) it is definitely a must-have product for any serious producer. We ourselves use it frequently in our productions. Trillian’s sound library includes the original patches of its predecessor (Trilogy) and the wide selection of patches make it great for all types of musical genres. Inbuilt effect processors and eq filters are helpful for quick solutions within Trillian’s interface. One of our favourite patches is the Full Upright Acoustic which if programmed properly will leave you stunned and unable to distinguish whether it’s a real musician playing or a sample. As with all other Spectrasonic products you can load up to 8 patches in one instance. This is very helpful as you can create your own unique layer of sounds by combining several patches in one go.

Trust us, if used well, it’s almost impossible to tell the difference between the sample and a live session musician. It comes highly recommended.
