    They were rocking one of these at Synthfest a few days ago, does sound marvelous.
    On a Dulcitone note - I spoke to the granddaughter of Thomas Machel a while back and she had a photo of them stood outside their shop in Glasgow about 100 years ago. Nice to put some faces to the Dulcitone story. I'll have to dig it out.

    The custom Rhodes engineered MK8 analogue preamp features parametric EQ, independent drive, envelope control, wah, new vari-pan with 4 waveshapes, audio rate modulation capabilities and dual expression pedal control inputs. True analogue signal path.

    So good to have you back!!! And great demo; this MK8 is gorgeous. I owned a MKI in the mid 70s. I worked in keyboard retail when Roland bought the Rhodes name. We carried the Rhodes MK-80 and MK-60. The piano sounds were from Roland’s RD-1000/MK-20. The keyboard assembly was similar to (or the same as) their RD pianos. They had other products that were copies of Roland synths; I think the Rhodes line was geared to the home piano stores. Been over 30 years now!

    I always secretly hoped you’ll do a The Blue Nile deep dive ever since your move to Scotland, the excellent Castle Sound creative cribs episode and Solstice. Your love of synths and your excellent taste in music will eventually make this inevitable, won’t it? For a while there I was afraid we’d not meet again. But look who’s back! Mister Henson, welcome back. My hope of some day watching you do a remake of “Walk Across The Rooftops” with Solstice strings and your synth arsenal has been restored. ❤

    I own a 1972 Mk1a with the Buzz Watson stamp on it. The action is very unresponsive but the sound is amazing. I’ve owned and played on Rhodes since 1976 and it’s easily the best sounding one. I prefer the raw sound of mine to what I am hearing here. The advantage of this newer model is the huge improvement in the action and all the great processing onboard. You can do so much more with the newer model.
