Major Free Update with Expanded Features, New Patches and More

We are extremely excited to announce a significant update of our Trilian total bass module virtual instrument!

Major Arpeggiator Update
Trilian’s Arpeggiator has received a major update in v1.5 with all new creative tools, making it one of the most flexible arpeggiators ever. The many innovations include inspiring new Step Modifiers including Pattern Modes, Step Dividers, Pitch Slides and the unique ability to have altered Chord Voicings and Chord Inversions per step. Also included is a new Arpeggiator Preset Library that showcases all the creative possibilities. Best of all, Trilian 1.5 can now capture the MIDI data of the arpeggiator as a standard MIDI file, which can be dragged to any DAW for further editing!

Expanded Synthesis Features
Trilian 1.5 includes newly expanded synthesis features including many New Filter Types, Enhanced FM, Ring Modulation, Doubled Harmonia Voices and Polyphonic Waveshaping - which have been added for extra tonal shaping capabilities. Full FX Modulation, double the amount of Mod Matrix slots and new modulation sources have been added for even more sonic control.

New Sounds
Trilian 1.5 features a newly expanded sound library with over 200 brand new patches produced by Eric Persing and the acclaimed Spectrasonics Sound Development team. The 1.5 update also includes the new “Trilian Creative” library, a cutting-edge collection of Omnisphere patches specially designed for users who also have both instruments. Trilian’s richly detailed bass sounds can be dramatically transformed using Omnisphere’s deep synthesis capabilities. The new Trilian Creative library features unique and surprising sounds that showcase the power of this killer combination. The new patches offer an extremely wide variety of incredible sounds for modern music producers.
