🎹 Cherry Audio – Trident

Experience the lush, expressive power of vintage synthesis with Cherry Audio – Trident, a breathtaking recreation of the classic 1980s analog synthesizer that shaped generations of electronic music. Reimagined with modern DSP precision and cutting-edge workflow enhancements, Trident brings the warmth, depth, and character of true analog hardware straight into your DAW — no maintenance, no noise, just pure sonic magic.

Perfect for producers, composers, and sound designers, Trident delivers everything from dreamy pads and cinematic strings to fat analog basses and expressive brass textures, all with the unmistakable richness of vintage analog tone.

🎛️ Three Iconic Sections – Synth, Brass & Strings

At the heart of Trident lies its powerful three-part architecture, faithfully modeled after the original hardware. Each section — Synthesizer, Brass, and Strings — can run independently or blend together, giving you endless layering potential and massive, expressive soundscapes.

🎹 Synthesizer Section – Dual oscillators with multiple waveforms, modulation, and filter controls for classic leads, evolving pads, and deep textures.
🎺 Brass Section – Bold, punchy tones ideal for stabs, analog ensembles, and vintage-inspired poly synth layers.
🎻 Strings Section – Smooth, lush, and cinematic textures that bring instant retro emotion to your tracks.

Each section carries its own distinct character, blending the soul of 80s analog synthesis with the speed and precision of modern production tools.

🎚️ Analog Depth, Modern Control

Trident gives you all the flexibility of a professional analog synthesizer, enhanced with digital precision and modulation power for today’s sound design needs.

⚙️ Dual VCOs & LFO – Add movement, shape, and character using triangle, ramp, and square modulation.
🎚️ Envelope Generators – Full ADSR control for precise shaping of tone, dynamics, and movement.
🎛️ Authentic Filters with Resonance – Achieve everything from smooth analog sweeps to biting synth edges.

Whether you’re designing atmospheric pads, aggressive basslines, or shimmering leads, Trident’s modulation system gives you the freedom to shape your sound exactly how you want.
