A good trick with MIDI guitar is to send each string's MIDI on a separate MIDI channel. Then set the synth to six monophonic voices with pitch bend set to 12 semi tones. If your gear can work that way, check if Trilian supports such a setup. If it does, there's a fair chance it works ok with MIDI guitar. (I have not used Trilian in particular, but played a lot of MIDI guitar - enough to hate it) Trilian is quite pricey, so why don't you save up for a VG-99 instead? There you have no tracking, resulting in better timing and more expressive playability since it is working the real sound of the audio input.
