(August 18, 2006) — Applied Acoustics Systems announces today the official release of Ultra Analog Session.

Ultra Analog Session is a versatile and expressive synthesizer based on the synthesis engine of the acclaimed Ultra Analog VA-1. Ultra Analog Session boasts a comprehensive preset library covering a wide range of the analog spectrum making it an ideal and very affordable tool for musicians looking for the best in analog sound.

"Ultra Analog Session is a very simple and straightforward synthesizer, yet the range of sound and control possibilities available from just a few key synthesis and performance parameters are very impressive," said Marc-Pierre Verge, CEO of AAS. "This new Session instrument is the perfect solution for musicians who do not need all the programming features of Ultra Analog VA-1 but still crave the quality of its analog sound."

Pricing and Availability
The Ultra Analog Session is available now direct from the AAS web store at a price of $99. Ultra Analog Session runs as a standalone application and supports the RTAS plug-in format on the Mac OS. An update will be available soon to support the new Intel-based Mac systems.
