What it is
AAS Lounge Lizard EP-5 is a physical modeling electric piano plugin from Applied Acoustics Systems. Rather than playing back samples, it models the actual mechanics of tine and reed electric pianos - the instruments behind decades of soul, funk, R&B, and jazz-fusion records. Version 5 features a completely redesigned dual synthesis engine covering both tine-type (think Fender Rhodes) and reed-type (think Wurlitzer) voicings, with the modeling architecture rebuilt from the ground up for greater realism and expressiveness.
Who it's for
Keyboard players and producers who need a deeply playable electric piano that sounds and responds like the real thing. It fits naturally into neo-soul, jazz, lo-fi, funk, indie pop, and film scoring - anywhere you would reach for a Rhodes or Wurlitzer as your main keyboard texture.
Key features
- Dual synthesis engine models both tine-based and reed-based electric pianos in a single plugin
- Built-in effects rack with 13 processors including chorus, tremolo, phaser, wah, and amp simulation handles your sound from start to finish
- Redesigned preset browser with search functionality makes navigating the large factory library fast
