Lounge Lizard comes with an extensive preset library that is simply inspiring-giving you access to the RhodesA™ and WurlitzerA™ sounds popularised by musical legends like Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, Stevie Wonder,and George Duke. There is a choice of pure and true tones as well as a selection of processed ones courtesy of the high-end effect section.
Especially designed for the electric piano-so you dont spend hours tweaking external plug-ins or boxes-the effect section includes the classic tremolo, chorus, wah,and phaser effects as well as EQ, delay and reverb, making it really easy to create your own distinctive custom tones.
EP Character and Beyond
The original RhodesA™ pianos provided timbre and volume adjustments by letting you position the tines in relation to the pickups. These adjustments were at the heart of the electric pianos character as they controlled the harmonic content,attack,and decay of the sound-offering unique tone to each player. But there was a price for this flexibility,several painstaking hours with a screwdriver and incredible patience was needed to change the sound of an electric piano.
Suffer no more-With Lounge Lizard, the preset library provides a selection of thoroughly chosen Tine/Pickup configurations but you also have the ability to make those adjustments in real time via two simple controls: Distance and Symmetry.

But it doesnt end there,since controls are provided for the various electromechanical components, Lounge Lizard can be pushed far beyond hardware equivalents, opening up a completely new realm of sonic possibility!
Whats more,since the interaction between the tine and pickup is quite unique, its effect cant be obtained with the filtering provided by samplers-limiting sampled solutions to one or two fixed configurations and bringing physical modelling at the forefront of the electric piano recreation.
