Anyone have one that is comparable to the Kurzweil K2** series patch like the Dyno Rhodes? I'm still not happy with some of the Fusion offerings. Perhaps a soundfont?

Frankly the Hollow Sun Freepack 16 is as close to a real rhodes as I've come across anywhere. And I have played the real thing (and carried one up 2 flights of stairs!)
I really don't think you'll come across a soundfont with that much class!

I really don't think you'll come across a soundfont with that much class! my buddy (who bought an 8HD a couple weeks ago) pretty much said the same thing. As far as realism goes, it blows anything I've heard from Korg and Yamaha away, and is really customizable via efx (I've got a nice overdriven version I made that sounds kinda like a cross between a rhodes, an overdriven Wurli, with a bit of FM). mozape - I'm not familiar with that Kurzweil sound - could you describe it? Perhaps one of my other tweaked versions might help you out, or we could point you in the direction of "rolling your own." |

The sound I'm after is a Chuck Monte Dyno-My-Piano Rhodes sound, very bright, crystalline, but definitely warmer than an FM Rhodes. The kurzweil guys nailed it on that patch---I wish there was a way to port over that sound. The Freepack #16 rhodes is nice for some things, and yeah it sounds pretty darn close to my suitcase 88, but I need some variety, not to mention the stereo tremolo. |

The demos sound quite nice. The S5/6000 version would convert nicely I imagine. But it is a bit more expensive than mine Steve |
