Synth by Applied Acoustics Systems
'Version 4 takes things to another level in terms of the sound and what can be achieved with Lounge Lizard EP-4. It simply can’t be beaten by any other Rhodes or Wurlitzer plug-in.'DJ Mag.
'This supremely playable emulation of a Fender Rhodes 73 also features a lifelike set of Wurlitzer presets and a wealth of suitable effects for getting authentic 70s sounds out of your DAW.'Computer Music. Magazine
Authentic Tone, Action and Feel.
The Lounge Lizard EP-4 plug-in delivers authentic vintage electric piano sounds in an everything-you-need package.
In the Studio
When time matters, simply pick from more than 100 custom electric piano presets. But when sound exploration is on the program, players will dig the real-time controls over hammer hardness, tine colour and decay, damper noise, and pickup placement for an unsurpassed level of customization.
Live on Stage
Gigging musicians will appreciate Lounge Lizard's small memory footprint, instant preset recalls, and stability. Furthermore, the huge library of classic electric piano sounds as well as the complete selection of effects makes it easy to build a set list and get the perfect tone for each song.
Alive Beneath Your Fingers
There is something quite immersive when a connection develops between the player and the instrument. Whether it's the perfectly smooth velocity progression or the interactive reaction to your performance, Lounge Lizard makes that connection happen.
Beyond the Electric Piano
Lounge Lizard achieves convincing electric piano tones with less than twenty synth parameters. That's a quite a feat by itself, but pushed further, these parameters reveal a realm of other tones. Organs, bells, chimes, leads are all featured in the preset library's Experimental folder.
Custom Tones
Even though famous players shared the same brand and models, they were all achieving their own signature sound. Nevertheless, that usually meant spending many hours under the hood with screwdrivers, wrenches, or even a solder iron. What's fun with Lounge Lizard is that whether you're looking to emulate a particular sound or simply find your own, all those tweaks are just a few knob turns away!
- NEW Factory Library - The completely renewed factory library features the classic electric piano sounds as well as over 200 gig- and mix-ready custom electric pianos making good use of the compressor, equalizer, and multi-effect processor.
- NEW Compressor and Equalizer - These new additions are perfect to add punch and definition to your sound, letting you cut through any dense mix or stage.
- NEW Character Control - The new Character control provides five classic studio and stage signal path emulations – that's the cabinet, pre-amp, microphone, and recorder chain that follows the piano's output – to easily snug fit your electric piano part into your track.
- NEW Limiter - The new output limiter protects your ears and monitors during experimentation with the piano's physical modelling parameters while providing a maximum of distortion-free dynamics.
- NEW Streamlined Interface - Redesigned from the ground up, the new interface now divides Lounge Lizard EP-4 into three panels: Play presents shortcuts to the main piano and effect parameters including bypass switches for quick edits; Edit lets you get under the hood and voice the piano to taste; while FX supplies equalizer, compressor, multi-effect, and reverb processors for final shaping duties.
- NEW Bank and Program Manager - Lounge Lizard EP-4's new manager allows for simple and efficient organization, backup, and sharing of your sounds.
- UPDATED Overhauled Effects - Reinvigorated, polished, and tuned especially for the electric piano, Lounge Lizard EP-4's multi-effect processor features our best sounding chorus, delay, phaser, flanger, distortion, notch filter, wah-wah, auto-wah, and reverb to date!
- NEW Native 64-bit Audio Unit (AU) and VST Plug-ins - Lounge Lizard EP-4 now runs in native 64-bit on Mac OS X and Windows making it compatible with the latest sequencers.

This two-hour premiere episode introduces Cordell Walker (Chuck Norris), a contemporary Texas Ranger. During a bank robbery in Fort Worth, Ranger Cordell Walker's partner Bob Mobley (Steven Ruge) is killed. Walker's new partner, Ranger James Trivette (Clarence Gilyard), has a history with one of the suspects in the robbery. Trying to solve the case, Walker discovers that the robbery could have been a test for a much bigger goal: simultaneously robbing four banks lying next to each other. After a bomb explodes in a bank across town which has just gotten in a valuable shipment, everyone goes to that bank. When the actual robbery starts at the other four banks, it falls to Walker in an effort to catch the robbers and their leader, former CIA agent Orson Wade (Marshall Teague). In a subplot, Walker helps a young circus acrobat who was brutally raped by three goons cope with her assault and later protects her and two Russian jugglers who witnessed and stopped her attack, from the trio who try to run them out of town. Note: The role of C.D. Parker was played by Gailard Sartain. In the first regular season, Noble Willingham took over the role starting with the episode, 'Bounty.'

| 105 | 1 | 'The Fighting McLains' | Tony Mordente | Nicholas Corea | September 27, 1997 | 501 |
Belle Starr McLain, a mole for the DEA, is exposed and murdered by drug kingpin Jack Garret. Then her Marine-brother JW (John Wesley), to whom she sent proof of Garret's wrongdoing, goes AWOL to launch a vendetta against the drug lord. Instead, JW is stopped and captured by Walker. After JW's commanding officer Luther Parrish comes to pick him up, JW is sprung by his two other siblings, Jessie and Wyatt. Now Walker, Trivette, and Parrish must keep the McLains from taking the law into their own hands to avenge their sister, while at the same time gathering sufficient evidence to bust Garret for his crimes. Notes:This plotline was recycled considerably for the TV movie Logan's War: Bound by Honor , in which Eddie Cibrian portrays Airborne Ranger Logan Fallon. As a child, Logan witnessed the murder of his sister and their parents by a corrupt politician; Logan withholds all evidence regarding their killer from the authorities, since this matter is personal. The difference herein is that the Chuck Norris character – Logan's uncle Jake, himself a retired Airborne Ranger – supports this private vendetta instead of opposing it. Moreover, like many episodes of WTR, the movie has a supernatural element: Logan's never-explained premonitions of danger. | ||||||
