You can find AAS Lounge Lizard EP-4 available here at SweetWater. The functionality within EP-4 really allows you to get as granular as you want with sound design, that is huge for those of us who are maniacal about controlling every single aspect of the sound. The AAS team has a fantastic product here that always inspires when you open it up. I can’t recommend Lounge Lizard EP-4 enough if you’re looking for that classic vintage electric piano sound. I hope you’ve had a chance to see how much fun I have with these two plugins as a combination. Take a listen below to what the beautiful Lounge Lizard EP-4 sounds like on its own. For the delay I tweaked around with the settings until I found something I liked, alternatively for the reverb I circled through presets until I found one. This bump will add that extra oomph to the high end of the riff and really make it standout.įinally we’ll apply some delay (Studio One Analog Delay) and reverb (Studio One Open Air). We’re also going to add a 1-4db bump in the ~5k range that we cut in the main chord progression. Here we can cut up to ~200-400hz depending on how thin that makes it sound and whether you enjoy that within the context of the main chord progression. We will also add a 3-5db notch down in the ~5k range so we can leave a bit of space in the high end.įor the riff piano part we’ll apply a similar amount of compression (1-3db reduction) while applying more of the high-pass filter so it doesn’t interfere with the main chords. For the main chords we want the low end so we’ll apply a high-pass filter up to around ~60-100hz.
LOUNGE LIZARD VST PRO
Utilizing Studio One’s Fat Channel compressor (available here), the goal is to get minimal gain reduction (1-3db) while increasing the gain a fair bit.Īfter compression time to add some EQ using Studio One’s Pro EQ. We’re using compression more as a limiter here then a regular compressor. All the FX we’re using here are default plugins within Studio One. Now that we’ve put together a 4-bar loop time to add some general FX to the melodies to shape them a bit more.

XLN Audio’s RC-20 Retro Color Plug-in supplies you with a huge palette of vintage coloration effects that add texture and life to sterile recordings, enhancing your productions with the warm, inviting, compelling sound of vintage gear. Official XLN Audio RC-20 Retro Color Description I only recently purchased RC-20 on Sweetwater (available here) during the Black Friday sale, and while I’m just beginning to get my hands dirty with it, I’m extremely pleased this far. RC-20 excels in its ability to give an analog-modelled warmth (along with countless other) to any sound you put through the plugin. Over the last 12 or so months it’s become a staple, go-to plugin within the production community. You either were amazed by the functionality of RC-20 or had no idea it exists, there was really no in-between. XLN Audio’s RC-20 was a best kept secret in the producer community for awhile.
