The piano that changed the history of music - History of Rho

Hi, all, I just thought it would be a nice 'plug' here at dub-board. Not sure why, But I think in case some of dub-heads do not know, check it out - it's just an interesting read. <BR>The sound of rhodes is very 'special'...very moody and somewhat spacy, great for chords and moody melow leads. <BR>Nowdays many producers use rhodes allot which come from digital sample-playback synth &#40;as a patch&#41; or from sample-library, but not many know what the hell rhods actually are &#40;or say were&#41;. You gotta know somethin'bout rhodes , man <IMG SRC="http://www.interruptor.ch/cgi-bin/discu ... /happy.gif" ALT=":&#41;">... <BR>Here's the link: <BR><A HREF="http://www.fenderrhodes.org/rhodes/supe ... story.html" TARGET="_blank">Rhodes-History in Short</A> <BR>check the rest of the site there - some cool stuff to know. <BR> <BR>/respects <BR>/Mike Zee, aka Dr ZEE <BR><A HREF="http://www.angelfire.com/music2/mikezee/zdl.htm" TARGET="_blank">Z-D-L</A>
