Pianoteq new Vintage Tines MKII Rhodes

Presets by the infamous KP Rausch. Got his Alesis Fusion stuff.
Also, R2 has now been relabelled MkI.

    Sweet.  I own the EP pack, and they've added quite a bit to it for free over the past year (the Hohner pianets, MK II).

    Yeah, it's the best bundle to start off with.

    I haven't used it in a long time, used to do it a lot until Lounge Lizard kind of took over--and now the Arturia and NI ones, too. But I'm gonna see about trying the MkII out.

    One more question.  If I buy the "Stage" version and pick the electric pianos, will I still have all the editing functionality of the Rhodes, etc...??  I'm a bit confused as to the limitations of "Stage".

    I just got Lounge Lizard 4 and really impressed with it.....almost everything in there is very good. For someone who can barely bang on the keys, even I can sound good......it's that good. :))

    There's a lot less tweakability in Stage, such as no microphone settings. Then again, the electric pianos have no mic settings, even in Standard or Pro, so if you're going for the Electrics/Hohner bundle, Stage would be just fine. Less tweaking necessary with those. But once you add acoustic pianos, I would suggest upgrading to Standard.
    Also note that Pianoteq 6 might be around the corner, possibly with other bundles. Then again, upgrading will be painless as it has always been, about 30 bux.
     
    Edith says: well, there are a few electric piano presets that do allow for mic positioning in the Standard and Pro versions (not in Stage). Primarily the so-called "Roomy" presets, to (evidentially) capture the room sound. But we're talking about 5% of the electrics/Hohner presets. So, if you want Pianoteq for the electrics, Stage will do.

    AAS LoungeLizard4 is a mighty sweet contender. I even prefer their GUI to the Pianoteq one, which just looks too red to me.

    Both Lounge Lizard and Pianoteq pianos are very good. But underrated is the Arturia Wurley that is part of the V Collection. That thing is really nice.  And NI's Scarbee pianos are also very good. I'm easy to please, I guess.
    Back in the day my favorite electric piano software was a free one: Mr. Ray. Anyone remember that? Man, I loved that thing, I think somehow I lost it during a hard drive crash or something. But it was killer, and totally free. Those were the days.

    Oh they are all wonderful. And you can even get the new Arturia Wurli in preset form within Analog Lab 2, a free upgrade for Analog Lab users.
    But above all, the king, nay, the emperor of electric pianos is GospelMusicians' Neo-Soul.
    THAT is my desert island one.

    Yup...Neo Soul is killer diller...but not as tweakable as LL4 or the Pianoteq seems to be. UVs Tines Anthology, also good as is their new Tines 88. Many times I'll stack a couple to get my desired sound.
