What Wurlitzer by Rhodes does
The developer describes the instrument as a deep recreation of the 200A, released in 1974, which became a studio staple thanks to its compact design and versatility. The 200A is recognised as a definitive reed-based electric piano with a dynamic, expressive playing response, and the sampling was carried out by the developer’s sound designers to capture the instrument across its range.
The emulation includes the original mono vibrato circuit, which the developer models in full analogue detail, so the vibrato sits inside the note the way it does on the hardware. The Twin JC amp models from the Rhodes Anthology are included, and the speakers are noted for their midrange presence and natural breakup.
Key features
- Timbre Shift. A single control moves the tone between the character of several vintage models, so the same patch can be set closer to one unit or another.
- Vibrato circuit. The original mono vibrato circuit is modelled in full, giving the tremolo and vibrato the behaviour of the 200A rather than a generic modulation effect.
- Twin JC amp models. Twin JC amp models from the Rhodes Anthology are included, and the developer notes their midrange presence and natural breakup as the source of the speakers’ character.
Compatibility
The instrument runs on Windows 10 and later and on macOS, with native support for Apple Silicon listed and 8 GB of RAM.
