Cherry Audio's Trident Mk III synthesizer is a stunning virtual instrument that meticulously revives the soniccapabilities of the original 1981 and 1982 Trident Mk I and Mk II hardware synths.
It not only replicates themultitimbral experience of the original but exponentially enhances it, offering an unparalleled combination ofinnovation and authenticity.
Cherry Audio has meticulously recreated each section of the original Trident hardware — the sweeping Synth, thebold Brass, and the stirring Strings — and enhanced the entire ensemble with additional features.
The voice counthas been increased to 16 for each section, and now includes velocity sensitivity and aftertouch, as well as supportfor polyphonic aftertouch.
The lower panels for Keyboard, Motion (a new feature), and Effects have been significantly expanded to include avirtual studio of tools that enhance this "orchestra-in-a-box" experience like never before.
These features includedrag-and-drop zones and quick templates for splits and layers, a DAW-friendly 16x2 polyphonic step sequencer,and dual arpeggiators. Trident also features 17 studio-quality effects that can now be arranged and reused withinits four effects chains.
These effects include the original BBD flanger, a compressor, a lo-fi effect, a phaser, a ringmodulator, a 7-band EQ, and various delays and reverbs, including the new Lushverb.
