Running the app from the iPad gives you control over a lot of parameters (effects and otherwise) whereas on the iPhone or iPod Touch you can only control tremolo. Since you were talking about running the app on the iPad, I gave it a try on this device as well. Apart from the iPod Touch, I also have an iPad. Okay, that took me by surprise - a good review from a trustworthy source (I also know you from reading in pianoworld). I'm quite a fan of Neo-Soul Keys on the iPad, however if there is a better Rhodes app available, I'd be interested to give it a try. If I succeed, I will write a summary on the results! I will give it a try if I don't come to an easier and still satisfactory solution otherwise.

I am not sure how to get the soundfont library into an iOS device however. So, thanks for the idea of combining this soundfont app with the soundfont library. Wow, thanks for this info! I saw your other thread but wasn't reading in detail since I was only focussing on iPhone/iPad apps and anyway thought I don't need "the best" Rhodes - a good enough will do and I am not too picky. This format can be used on an IOS device with the right app such as To my surprise and joy I saw that one of the formats you are getting in the package is soundfont.

I started a thread where I was asking for opinions for "Best Software Rhodes": I'm not quite happy with the results I got myself and I'm not quite patient enough to do a better job.

One of these days I'll resample it, but first I need to get a pro to revoice it, since I replaced the grommets and hammer tips. I first used it on a 512M Windows laptop that didn't do direct-from-disk, so I kept the footprint low. However, it has a very small memory footprint, which may be very useful on iOS.

It's a very "belly" sample set, quite different from the classic George Duke or Chick Corea tones, but I like it.Īnd yeah, it's flawed: it has big jumps in velocity samples, and noticeable jumps crossing key zone boundaries (every 4th white key is sampled, every other white key near Middle C), so it doesn't compare with the pro sample sets, but if you play it rather than analyze it, it's fun and useful (and watch the FFF bass notes, they fart). That just has a mild stereo pitch shift doubling effect baked into the samples. I particularly recommend the looped stereo version. If you can run soundfonts, then try my flawed but still very useful (and free) jRhodes3 soundfonts.
