Amazing tone & feeling, Dan! That phat sound. Totally capturing the REAL Rhodes/vintage sound with new technology…. Congrats. You’ve built the perfect beast. Love the distorted/ringmod (?) around 3.55…. NOTHING sounds like a Rhodes 🎹💜
I'm not big on that distortion sound. I prefer the clean slightly chorused New York 70s vibe. Was checking out the price of a bog standard Rhodes on your website and it came in at about £8500.00. damn, I'll never be able to get one at that price. Looks like I'll have to try and get a midi version.
@dangoldman that was absolutely fantastic! I had no idea you were such an accomplished player Well done! loved every second of that totally blown away!
why does the Rhodes sound different from the amp in the preamp? I liked the sound captured from the amp in other videos. Is there a difference between the amp output and the headphone output?
Hello, Thank you for the comment. Only the Rhodes MKII was sold with a music stand included. The Rhodes MK8 does not have that same feature, but the front panel has been designed with a channel at the bottom to hold a phone, tablet or sheet music in place. Regards, Rhodes.
The low register sounds OK, a finely tuned MKI does this as good or better with an Avalon/Peterson pre. Just had miracle mod done on mine and it plays incredible and sure beats the price of a MK8. Far as their modulation, the versatility of pedals/outboard are better IMHO. Great playing brother! Enjoyed the jam
The MK8 is every bit up there with any restored older model of ours and WAY more besides- both sonically and feature wise. Also NO external FX currently in existence are optimised and built specifically for the Rhodes MK8 signal path either, the FX are fully integrated with the piano UI and signal path, they are not add ons- so noise, performance are all completely optimised. I would be very pleased to demo you the MK8 next to your MK1 any day. I promise you'll eat your words.
Thanks for the comment. If you would like to chat further about our plans for pairing the MK8 and suitcase cabinet, send an email to christian.dumouchel@rhodesmusic.com and we can give you some more information. Regards, Rhodes
This sounds so thick and buttery, it makes me concerned about cholesterol.
Damn, Dan is truly a master of the Rhodes. I cannot get enough of his demos. Really looking forward to when the effects section is ready.
always great to hear Dan play, especially on a Rhodes Mk8!
Goldman you really live up to your name, you really are a golden man
Amazing vibe of incredible sounds
Amazing instrument and amazing player! I'm happy for you Dan!

That’s one very lovely Rhodes set up and tuned well with all the best effects right on board, no glitchy cords and scratchy stombox pots! ❤️
Sounds incredible for both the stage and in a mix.
Love the sounds coming from the MK8! Love how versatile and fun it sounds to play with; really want to hear these preamp features in person!

Great sound… even greater play!
Great sounding piano. Nice chops!
Lovely sound!
Wonderful work 👌sounds lovely
Love it!!
Can this model be ordered with warmer sounding tines? The upper end is harsh and plasticky sounding.
Wanna seeh the effects unit. Then order.
That Sound......😎
Luscious is the only way to describe the sound of a Rhodes.
Ahhh! Hell yeah!!!😌🎹🎶👍🏾
man i SO wanna win this thing!!
That's what I like to hear 🎹
Always trust a man who wears the classic Casio watch. The Rhodes mk8 is in good hands

Something I noticed about new Rhodes. Is there not a music stand on them?

@@rhodesmusic I have a 76 Rhodes mkI
Could have sworn there was a ledge there for books
No retail availability in Canada. Pity.
Is it cool if I sample some of your Rhodes sounds for my DAW...? Lovely playing Dan as always... ☮🔥🎹

I wondered if anyone else noticed the thin harsh upper range. I guess I wasn't alone.
Dan is the best. The new beast is awesome. BUT I miss the “makers of fine keyboard instruments” writing. 😂
Aaaahhhhh............nothing like a Rhodes.
Will this pair up with my old suitcase bottom cabinet? 🤔
