The only authentic Rhodes plugin available
The Rhodes V8 Pro is the most advanced Rhodes virtual instrument available. Built with a combination of 30,000 meticulously sampled recordings and an advanced modelling engine, it delivers an unparalleled level of authenticity. Each note has up to 127 velocity layers and 14 articulations, capturing the subtle nuances of the original MK8 electric piano. The Pro edition takes this further with a per-note editor, allowing you to adjust timbre, damper response, tuning, and level for every key. This level of detail makes it perfect for musicians looking for absolute control over their Rhodes sound.
Flexible tone shaping and EQ
With 120 piano profiles and a customisable EQ, the V8 Pro lets you fine-tune your sound to match any mix or performance setting. Whether you need a warm vintage feel or a bright, cutting tone, the built-in shaping tools make it easy to dial in the perfect sound. The ‘Main’ view provides intuitive controls for broad tone adjustments, while the ‘Detail’ view unlocks deeper sculpting options, including amp simulations and profile EQ settings.
Classic amplifier tones
The V8 Pro features a built-in amplifier simulation with three amplifier models: the ‘Rhodes ’79 Suitcase,’ ‘Twin Tube’ Combo, and a DI option. Two mic types, condenser and dynamic, add further flexibility, letting you shape the sound as if you were recording a real amp. Getting you as close to the real-thing as possible, the V8 Pro features built-in effects, comprising a VCA compressor, stereo phaser, and a bucket-brigade chorus and delay, all modelled after the MK8 FX board. These effects add warmth, movement, and depth, helping you create a Rhodes sound that sits perfectly in your mix.
Artist-designed presets
For instant inspiration, the Rhodes V8 Pro comes loaded with 208 expertly designed presets, including 108 crafted by professional artists and producers. Whether you need classic Rhodes tones, modern textures, or experimental sounds, there’s a preset to match your vision. The combination of high-quality presets and deep customisation options makes the V8 Pro both a powerful creative tool and a go-to instrument for producers and performers alike.
