Do you trigger it with a keyboard?

Maybe when the whole mix is playing it's not obvious..but even with the "real" basses, rock lines just don't seem to sound right to me.

The upright bass is the sh*t though! Fun to play with that..

Eric Pershing (of Spectrasonics) recommends running the output from Trilogy through a cab sim to get a better (more realistic) sound from the samples. Sounds better that way to me, too
