Applied Acoustics Systems LOUNGE-LIZARD-EP4 Lounge Lizard EP4 Electric Piano Virtual Software Instrument

Lounge Lizard EP4 is an electric piano synthesizer plugin delivering authentic professional quality sounds in an everything-you-need package.

Once again, AAS raises the bar in the recreation of the classic electric pianos. Not only does Lounge Lizard EP-4 deliver the authentic tone of the originals, but it also preserves their action and feel. Once you get your hands on Lounge Lizard, that elusive electric piano sound becomes a vivid reality. Using our award winning physical modeling technology, we've come up with refinements that take one of the most impressive and unanimously acclaimed software to another level.

New Features in Lounge Lizard EP-4:

Factory Library NEW

The completely renewed factory library features the classic electric piano sounds as well as over 200 gig- and mix-ready custom electric pianos making good use of the compressor, equalizer, and multi-effect processor.

Compressor and Equalizer NEW

These new additions are perfect to add punch and definition to your sound, letting you cut through any dense mix or stage.

Character Control NEW

The new Character control provides five classic studio and stage signal path emulations – that's the cabinet, pre-amp, microphone, and recorder chain that follows the piano's output – to easily snug fit your electric piano part into your track.

Limiter NEW

The new output limiter protects your ears and monitors during experimentation with the piano's physical modeling parameters while providing a maximum of distortion-free dynamics.

Streamlined Interface NEW

Redesigned from the ground up, the new interface now divides Lounge Lizard EP-4 into three panels: Play presents shortcuts to the main piano and effect parameters including bypass switches for quick edits; Edit lets you get under the hood and voice the piano to taste; while FX supplies equalizer, compressor, multi-effect, and reverb processors for final shaping duties.

Bank and Program Manager NEW

Lounge Lizard EP-4's new manager allows simple and efficient organization, backup, and sharing of your sounds.

Overhauled Effects UPDATED:

Reinvigorated, polished, and tuned especially for the electric piano, Lounge Lizard EP-4's multi-effect processor features our best sounding chorus, delay, phaser, flanger, distortion, notch filter, wah-wah, auto-wah, and reverb to date!
