Jon Meyer has announced availability of a new free Kontakt instrument. The Antiquarian Echo offers a pad sound created with an electric guitar and the Chorus Echo SRE-555 from Roland.
I created a spacey, ambient, evolving pad sound using an electric guitar and Roland Chorus Echo. The Antiquarian Echo requires the full version of Kontakt 5.
The free download is available for a limited time to newsletter subscribers.

based on the demos this still does not beat vtines mk1 imo
i find it interesting that rhodes, despite being so simple, yet so nuanced (specially taking different models into consideration), is so difficult to emulate correctly without sounding cheap. and even when taking only good emulations into consideration, i find it interesting how one can sound so much better/different than the next one.
idk, but to me when i think rhodes, i think warm 70s sounds. all these rhodes with such presence/attack/bite/another stage emu, sound so 80s to me, and are therefore such a completely different sound i’m hoping/expecting from a rhodes plugin.
