The Session Bundle Black Friday deal is 50% off, which brings this Applied Acoustics Systems collection to $49 until Nov 18, 2026. It packs three instruments into one purchase: Lounge Lizard Session, Strum Session and Ultra Analog Session.
Applied Acoustics Systems describes the Session instruments as three synths for music makers, covering essential sounds for your tracks that are also a pleasure to play.
The Session Series Collection holds these instruments:
If you already own Lounge Lizard Session, Strum Session or Ultra Analog Session, the maker offers an upgrade path to the collection.
Lounge Lizard Session delivers classic electric piano tones, and the maker says it offers outstanding sound quality, action and feel.
Key controls act on the mallet, pickup, tine and tone bar, so you shape the tone at the source of the sound. A Character knob adds five classic studio and stage signal path emulations, and a built-in compressor and equalizer help you add punch.
The library has 16 sounds taken from the award-winning Lounge Lizard EP-4. They include Classic, Dark, Bright and Groovy EP variations, with Tremolo, Chorus and Phaser versions of each, plus Compressed, Bite and EP Bass.
Strum Session pairs an acoustic and an electric guitar, with chord recognition, chord voicing, strumming and picking action, a MIDI riff library, an amp and effects.
The GS-2 chord library holds basic and extended chords in open, movable or drop voicings. Play a chord you know and Strum voices it the way a guitarist would.
On the keyboard, you trigger downstrokes, upstrokes, scratches and mutes, or build picking patterns with the arpeggio keys. You can also lay recorded strumming loops over your chords and drag and drop them into your host sequencer.
Pitch wheel or aftertouch gives you slides and bends, the mod wheel adds vibrato, and leads get natural hammer-ons and pull-offs.
Ultra Analog Session is built on the Ultra Analog VA-2 engine and ships with signature presets from producers Richard Devine and Sean Divine.
The arpeggiator offers several sync resolutions, playing algorithms and rhythmic patterns. For performance, you get tap tempo, sync to host clock, poly or mono keyboard modes with note priority, up to 4-voice unison, glide, legato and vibrato. Built-in effects take the raw oscillator sound further.
The collection runs on Windows and macOS in 64-bit, as VST, AU, RTAS, AAX Native or standalone.
