First we're not hyped enough, now were too hyped. :-)
So I really not sure what you mean. All the new Basses for Trilian were recorded FLAT and direct from the instrument with NO EQ or hyping. So any tone adjustments can be made by the user.
I'm wondering something when I read these kinds of comments: Are you guys just loading the patches and not using the custom Tone controls on the front panel when you are working with the instrument in your tracks? Are you really checking out ALL the variations for an instrument?
You can very easily make Trilian sound any way that you would like - flat, hyped, bassy, thin, midrangey, smooth, fat, aggressive...whatever! But you have to adjust the controls of the sound to fit your tracks, just like you do with a real bass BTW. A real player always is adjusting his tone and technique to fit the music - plus the engineer is adjusting which mics/DI combinations to use with various EQ and Compression techniques. In addition to a massive variety of different instruments, Trilian has all of these kinds of adjustments available to make the instrument work in so many different styles.
