Objeq Delay 2 hands-on: AAS acoustic resonator modeling in a multi-effect

I’ll take a side order with the fixins’. Objeq Delay gives you the signature physical modeling resonator that’s the secret ingredient in AAS’ main-course instruments, but in a handy multi-effect with stereo delays and filters. Version 2 is a major update, inside and out. Here’s a breakdown of what’s new.

Physical modeling, modular explorations with Adam Pietruszko and AAS’ CV-3

Those sprawling synths are great, but when it comes to exploring a sound design idea compositionally, there’s nothing quite like a modular patch. I’ve long admired Adam Pietruszko’s work for AAS, so it’s a treat to watch him break down a patch and hear what he did on Rotors, bringing those leftfield sounds to dancefloor contexts.

Far beyond the Lounge, with Lounge Lizard EP-5’s new physical modeling

AAS’ Lounge Lizard EP-5 refreshes one of the definitive electric keyboards in software with a redesigned physical modeling core for tine and reed instruments. What sets this particular plug-in apart is deep modeling and diverse presets, which can take the instrument way beyond the lounge. Yes, it can be an accurate electric keyboard, but it can also imagine new keyboard instrument sounds that you’ve never heard before.
