The most obvious is that there are more sounds! Over 200 presets are included to get you started. Within each screen, there are some new things from the previous version. Finally, the FX screen provides access to effects, including the equalizer, compressor, delay, chorus, reverb, wah-wah, phaser, distortion, and notch filter.

The Edit screen gives you access to fine-tuning, including hammer stiffness, noise, pickup, tine, and damper parameters, as well as the tremolo control (an essential ingredient for many electromechanical piano recordings). The Play screen, pictured above, is where you select your presets and have access to basic parameters. The interface was previously split across two screens now it is three.

Please see our EP-3 review for an in-depth look at Lounge Lizard here we will focus on the new features of EP-4 version 4.0.1: If you were a fan before, you’ll like it even more now! We certainly did. With more sounds, more effects, and a new interface for better organization (just a small gripe about the on-screen virtual knobs being a little small), there’s even more to like than before. Now we’ve got EP-4, and it’s a worthy upgrade. It was easy to tweak, had great Rhodes, Wurli, and “experimental” keyboard sounds, and only took up a very small hard drive footprint thanks to modeling technology instead of multi-gigabyte samples. The Lounge Lizard EP-4 Demo must be restarted after 20 minutes.We previously reviewed AAS Lounge Lizard EP-3 a few years back, quite favorably.Sound is interrupted every few seconds.Import/Export functions have been disabled.Intel Core i5 (circa 2015), Apple M1 processor or later.*32-bit support depreciated - see here for details.Intel Core i5 (circa 2015) processor or later.System Requirements & Compatibility : PC Minimum System Requirements June, 2016 - NKS format version available.64-bit Audio Unit (AU) and VST plug-ins.Once you get your hands on Lounge Lizard, that elusive electric piano sound becomes a reality you'll be propelled into inspirational space.
