TRILOGY -TOTAL BASS MODULE
		
		The Ultimate Electric, Acoustic and Synth Bass Instrument
		
		When you're ready to get serious about Bass, this is the instrument!
		Trilogy is a programmable, sample-based sound module plug-in, that
		integrates a massive 3 Gigabyte core library of hundreds of brand new,
		remarkable Bass sounds, with a powerful user interface for creating your
		own unique patches.
		
		The real power of Trilogy lies within its layering concept. Beyond the
		core library hundreds of incredible new Basses, every patch in Trilogy
		has two layers that you can tweak individually. You can also immediately
		mix and match any of the layers in the core library together, and edit
		each one independently. Imagine the power of combining the sound of a
		real Minimoogª with a Fretless bass, or a Virusª with a TB-303ª, or even
		adding a Junoª sub-oscillator to an Upright Bass! There are thousands of
		earthshaking combinations, and you'll never run out of options.
		
		Let's look at each of the three sections of Trilogy in detail, since
		each one has some innovative features:
		
		ACOUSTIC BASS The highly detailed Acoustic Upright Bass is one of the
		highlights of this instrument. Because of Trilogy's unique interface,
		you can get a wide variety of gorgeous tones from this Bass. This is
		made possible because the interface has separate control of the Neumannª
		U-47 Tube Microphone signal and the Direct Pickup signal, which was
		sampled through a vintage Neveª 1083 Console. This stunning sounding
		acoustic is chromatically sampled, with multi-dynamic velocity
		switching. The hardest velocity in every Bass patch in Trilogy brings in
		real bass glisses, similar in concept to the idea Spectrasonics
		pioneered on the Hans Zimmer Guitar libraries. An acoustic Martinª
		Dreadnought Bass Guitar is also available in the Acoustic section
		-perfect for those "unplugged" sessions!
		
		Trilogy's innovative True Staccatoª technique lets you play repeated
		notes on the Acoustic and Electric basses in real-time with a whole new
		level of realistic phrasing, and finally allows for repeated notes that
		sound completely natural like a bass player, and not like the dreaded
		"machine gun" sampler effect!
		
		ELECTRIC BASS The huge selection of Electric Basses are from all new,
		painstakingly recorded sessions, and features classic 4, 5 and 6 string
		models, performed in Fingered, Picked, Muted, Rock & Roll, Slapping,
		Ballad, Fretless and R&B techniques through rare, custom-made tube
		preamps. Special variations are presented including Harmonics, Glisses,
		Fuzz, Trills, FX and thousands of Slides! Both Modern and Vintage "Old
		School" Electrics are available, providing a wide array of tones for
		different musical settings. All the patches are mapped the same way, so
		that one sequence will work with any bass you select.
		
		There are thousands of samples used in these instruments, mapped with
		multiple dynamics for amazing expression. You don't have to "assemble"
		Bass parts with Trilogy, it's extremely playable as a highly expressive
		real-time instrument too!
		
		To complete the picture, every Acoustic and Electric Bass in Trilogy has
		a special "Finger Noise" release layer with release triggering, that
		gives these basses amazing realism -perfectly simulating the fretboard
		response of the real bass. When a note is released, the Finger Noise
		layer triggers an appropriate noise sample from among hundreds of tiny
		fret noises, subtle string scrapes, squeeks, x-notes, taps and mutes,
		which add a user controllable "human" imperfection element to your
		performance. You can also easily control how much of this effect you
		want, since the noise effect is on its own layer that can be controlled
		from the Trilogy Mixer.
		
		SYNTH BASS Trilogy is one of the most awesome Bass Synthesizers ever
		made! Have you ever struggled with trying to fit your synth bass sounds
		to sit in a track properly? The sound of Trilogy is not only ultra-fat,
		but it sits great in a mix. That's because we've created high-resolution
		core samples from legendary Analog Bass Synths like the Minimoogª,
		Roland Juno 60ª, Roland TB-303ª, Roland SH-101ª, Oberheimª SEM, Moog
		Taurusª, OSCarª, Virusª, Yamaha CS-80ª, Arp Odysseyª and 2600ª, Studio
		Electronics SE-1ª, Omegaª and ATCª Tone Chameleon, Sequential Circuits
		Pro Oneª, the mighty Moog Voyagerª and many others! Trilogy's multimode
		resonant filters allow you total control over the sound, while still
		retaining the original character and power of the classic analog
		instruments.
		
		Each fully programmable layer has its own multimode resonant filters,
		four LFOs, three envelopes, adjustable sample start and matrix
		modulation. There's also an additional master filter for quick tone
		shaping.
		
		In addition to gigabytes of high-resolution sampled vintage synth
		waveforms, and thick multimode resonant filters for each layer, Trilogy
		has the rare feature of smooth analog synth-style Legato triggering and
		Glide that software samplers lack. This capability allows for Synth Bass
		sounds that truely play like a vintage analog synth. This feature can
		also be used with any of the Electric or Acoustic Basses, for unique
		hybrid Bass sounds that you've never heard before!
		
		Whether you're looking to anchor your mixes with a giant vault of
		amazing Bass presets, or you're searching for a versatile instrument to
		create your own unique Bass soundsÉthere's no other Bass instrument out
		there with the tone, variety and flexibility of Trilogy -it's simply in
		a class by itself.
