It not only replicates the\nmultitimbral experience of the original but exponentially enhances it, offering an unparalleled combination of\ninnovation and authenticity.\nCherry Audio has meticulously recreated each section of the original Trident hardware — the sweeping Synth, the\nbold Brass, and the stirring Strings — and enhanced the entire ensemble with additional features. The voice count\nhas been increased to 16 for each section, and now includes velocity sensitivity and aftertouch, as well as support\nfor polyphonic aftertouch.\nThe lower panels for Keyboard, Motion (a new feature), and Effects have been significantly expanded to include a\nvirtual studio of tools that enhance this \"orchestra-in-a-box\" experience like never before. These features include\ndrag-and-drop zones and quick templates for splits and layers, a DAW-friendly 16x2 polyphonic step sequencer,\nand dual arpeggiators. Trident also features 17 studio-quality effects that can now be arranged and reused within\nits four effects chains. These effects include the original BBD flanger, a compressor, a lo-fi effect, a phaser, a ring\nmodulator, a 7-band EQ, and various delays and reverbs, including the new Lushverb.\nWith comprehensive MIDI mapping capabilities and over 370 professionally designed presets, Trident is a musthave\nvirtual instrument that will captivate both vintage synth enthusiasts and contemporary music producers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eADDITIONAL DETAILS\nEach section now features 16 voices. The Synthesizer section is fully polyphonic, with a filter for each voice,\nallowing for independent shaping. The Brass and Strings sections remain paraphonic, like the hardware, each\nhaving its own filter to shape their ensemble character.\nCherry Audio's Trident, like several of our recent instruments, showcases a thoughtful design and beautifully\nrendered user interface. It features persistent sound design controls at the top for easy access. The separate lower\npanel modes reveal additional functionalities, and we have further enhanced these features.\nThe Keyboard panel includes hideable keys and provides quick access to performance tools. These features enable\nyou to add real-time expressive flourishes that bring a performance to life with techniques such as bending, sliding,\nTrident by Cherry Audio\nand vibrato. In addition to supporting velocity, Cherry Audio's Trident also offers both channel and polyphonic\naftertouch, enabling expressive performances in ways that were not possible with the original hardware.\nThe all-new Motion panel allows users to easily assign key splits and layers using both one-click Quick Split\ntemplates and draggable zone controls. It also features discreet vibrato controls for each section, aftertouch\nassignment, a transposable 32-step polyphonic sequencer, and two advanced arpeggiators that can be customized.\nThese features enable users to set up and play the Synth, Brass, and String sections simultaneously in various ways,\nbringing this multitimbral orchestra-in-a-box to life at their fingertips.\nThe original Trident hardware featured a single BBD flanger and a built-in ensemble effect for Strings. In contrast,\nCherry Audio's Trident offers an enhanced set of Effects panels with 17 different effects. You can arrange chains of\nup to five effects in each section: Synthesizer, Brass, and Strings. Additionally, there is a Global effects chain that\nprocesses all three sections together.\nEach effect can be adjusted, bypassed, reordered by dragging, copied, soloed, and duplicated. You can also save\nand recall chains for use in other presets. Furthermore, a dedicated LFO Effect Modulator allows you to modulate\nentire chains. The Effects panels can be minimized, providing essential control access at the bottom for immediate\nuse.\nCherry Audio has designed Trident to cater to both first-time users and experienced synth enthusiasts. Beginners\nwill find it easy to use and immediately satisfying, while advanced users will uncover layers of evolving timbres that\nthe original hardware could only dream of.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll three sections -- Synthesizer, Brass, and Strings -- superbly recreated and significantly enhanced with expanded functionality and modulation options\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUp to 16 voices for each section o Polyphonic Synthesizer section with dedicated mixer o Paraphonic Brass and String sections with dedicated mixers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupport for velocity and aftertouch (including polyphonic aftertouch with compatible controllers) and pedal expression, independently assignable to the sections to control volume, filter, and modulation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSynthesizer Section o Voice Modes: Monophonic, two Polyphonic modes, or 2, 4, 6, or 8 Unison o Two VCOs: one with sawtooth, pulse width, and PWM waveforms; the other with sawtooth, triangle, and pulse width o VCF per voice with LP, HP, Band, or Notch response and keyboard tracking, based on the original's SSM 2044 o Two envelope generators (EG) o Syncable dedicated Modulation Generator (LFO) with triangle, sawtooth, ramp, square, and sample \u0026amp; hold waveforms, with delay and retrig\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass Section o Dedicated filter with cutoff, resonance, EG intensity, auto damp o Dedicated vibrato with delay and E\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eString Section o Dedicated filter with attack\/release envelope o Equalizer o Bowing control o Vibrato with delay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaster Mixer with stereo panning, transpose, and master tune\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePitch bend and vibrato joystick controls, with glide for the synthesizer section\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHideable switching lower panels for Keyboard, Motion (a new feature), and Effects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndependent key range assignment for all three instrument sections for layering and splitting, with crossfade, assignable through draggable zone handles or \"Quick Split\" templates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16x2 polyphonic step sequencer with start, stop, and auto start options, with accurate DAW clock and step synchronization\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatterns can be programmed to record real-time notes or as steps, with ties, accents, and Pattern A and Pattern B variations and combinations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo assignable dynamic arpeggiators with four modes – Arp, Leap, Order, and Random\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwing, Chance, and Feel groove controls for both the sequencer and arpeggiators to add degrees of randomness to arpeggiated patterns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour independent customizable chains of effects, one for each instrument section plus global, with a global effect modulator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e17 studio-quality effects that can now be arranged, saved, and recalled within its four effects chains:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBBD Flanger (new, based on the Trident original)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompressor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDigital Delay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDigital Reverb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistortion \u0026amp; EQ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual Delay (new)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual Ensemble (new)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual Phaser\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnvelope Filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlanger \u0026amp; Chorus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGalactic Reverb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLo-Fi (updated)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLushverb (new)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRing Modulator (new)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeven Band EQ \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpring Reverb (new)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTape Echo (new)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePersistent mini UI Effects controls for on\/off, solo, bipolar modulator amount slider, and dry\/wet mix for each effect.
