@@SmithMediaSolutions lol yeah now you need to take the Blackstar ID260 TVP modeling amp I got and do a video to see how close it can sound to a true valve amp being you have the big 3 fender, Marshall and mesa.
That was a really cool patching tutorial you gave! Thanks for breaking that down! What a cool instrument to have. That Fender Re-issue really does have a nice ring on it. You nailed it by explaining "It's like it has some chorus"
Thanks for this video and explaining your setup. FYI - That’s an RCA jack on the back left side of the harp, which feeds the 1/4 inch output jack on the front faceplate. I’ve heard that some people record directly from the RCA jack on the harp into their DAW. I have no idea if preamps or pedals are involved in such a setup or what audio interface they use. I have used the RCA jack on the harp to tune my Rhodes using a guitar tuner, which worked until I got up to like C6, then the signal became too weak and I had to use an amp.
The tine is the lower "wire" and the spring around it is for tuning reasons. It's connected to the upper tone bar (the golden thing you muted) via the hexagonal screw. It just works like an asymmetrical tuning fork. The classic amp for it would be a twin reverb silver face because they were voiced on them in the factory. :) Great video anyway, I have to try the parallel compression.
Why would you record it like that. It sounds like a sample, plug in or a nord. There's no sparkle in the sound. Get rid of all the baffles around the amp and turn it up, add a bit of reverb (3-5) Use a DI with a thru for an amp and DI as well. Then you can re-amp if you want to add different fx. (Echo, wah, modulation, filter etc). I would say your aiming to get a sound like you hear on classic 70s records. You've done the hard work, you've bought the rhodes and the Deluxe. A decent large condenser is good for capturing the deluxe too
Dam that signal chain had my head spinning...I'd say the Fender has a glossy sound instead of glassy
Bahaha. That is funny. Sound is so hard to describe:)

@@bk8708 Oh yeah! That would be an excellent one. I am writing that on my list of videos to make and I'll hit you up when I am ready!. Thanks

Thanks so much! What you heard on hear was a feed from my cue mix and as you know I like to record bone dry:) There was nothing on it at all.

Thank you very much for the info:) You've explained the mystery:)
Man your Rhodes sounds great
A very handy video....thanks mate.

Why would I record it like that? If we are not trying new things than we are not learning.
Hi! What kind of DI-box is that?
Early 1975 was the last time Fender Rhodes were made. They became Rhodes later in 1975 and were made differently than Fender Rhodes.
