It contains hammer noise, fork tine bar and tone amp, pickup symmetry, character and tremolo controls, and has a switch to toggle input from your keyboard’s pitch/mod wheels.

The bottom section is where the real magic happens with this plugin, which we’ll detail in the next section. The middle section has the appearance of rackmount effects, complete with compressor, EQ, chorus, phaser, and reverb. The top section has all of your preset functions, a MIDI light with a cool vintage jewel light look, a fine-tuning tool, MIDI voice control, output volume control, and a handy meter. Lounge Lizard Session has a very straightforward presentation. I’m obviously no Ray, but the way this plugin absolutely nails that Rhodes sound made me feel like I could be, even if just for a moment. That instantly recognizable Fender Rhodes electric piano sound filled my ears, and I just had to try to recreate that intro.

The second I loaded up Lounge Lizard Session by Applied Acoustics Systems, it was suddenly 1971 in my home studio and Jim Morrison was in the booth next to me stinking of Chivas. Whenever the intro to ‘Riders On The Storm’ plays, in particular, we all have had the urge to air-keyboard along with that iconic riff, right? Or is that just me? I have to believe that every one of us at some point in our lives has pantomimed like we were Ray Manzarek.
