Heh! You REALLY wanted that, no? I mean, MrRay being so good... True addiction I'd say.
Have fun with it!

I am still hoping that one day I'll see one at a garage sale and the person selling it will ask me a ridiculously low amount of $ for it..

One can always dream

Congrats on your new purchase! Have fun!

And S_A_P, I'm flattered to be in your sig, but surely I must have put an apostrophe in "it's"...? :-}

Noted, I guess I will fix it- I cant misquote such a great quote...

search ebay for local auctions, and offer to buy it outright, saving the guy the hassle of shipping the big bastards, thats what I did...

<aside> Thanky, S_A_P. My Transparency Preserver's a great plug, but so far nobody's bought or downloaded it. *ponder* Think I should write more than a GUI mockup? No, don't bother to answer. :-) </aside>

My Uncle is a hifi nut, he likes to modify 1970s FM tuners so that they sound better. His motto-

If you can hear it it's not working

What about a comma?

Audio clip:
http://www.soundfonts.it/MyRhodes/mk1.mp3

It's my version of "Georgia on my mind", a little tribute to the great Mr Ray Charles Robinson, may the Lord bless him (and my dad!)

The mp3 and the A/D conversion (Yamaha 01v) made it lose some quality, the instruments sounds far better from live.
For now I don't have a Fender amp so I just connected it to the Behringer V-Amp pro and set it up quickly with a tube preamp simulation... I must admit that this behringer sounds better than what I'd expected though

Sorry for my bad playing... now I'll have to study some more piano technique

Here's one for you other guys that want one just like zios.

Shipping is pretty high for worldwide but if you are in the US he says it is very heavy and will need to calculate shipping for your zip code. Which could also be high.

I listened to your tune. Man this is beautiful. I felt like lighting a candle when listening to it.

A *real* Rhodes. What a joy.

Finally I bought it !!! YEAH !! :-)
