Realistic E-piano

Looking for a Wurli/Rhodes-alike sound? Look no further, this sounds as nice as any other Ep emulation. Even compared to Mark One from Kontakt library, the world-class reference, it sounds beautiful. It also host essential FX such as EQ, comp, chorus, tremolo & verb

"For 'Momma's Boy,' for instance, we actually used a plugin, the Lizard Lounge. We used it because it's giving us something more modern. That and the effect on the vocal gave it more of a twist."
