So something I'm not understanding is the Vibrato Depth Offset. Unlike the effect offsets, I can't tell if these are doing anything.

I'd like to have the Vibrato not affect the Room signal. But even with Vibrato Offset Room set to the minimum of -100, it sounds the same to me. Is this doing what it should? What should I be hearing?

Yeah I had actually emailed Chris and he had explained. I had the intensity set to 100, as I was doing with the mod wheel. I might put it in a Combinator, remove the performance control and reassign with the programmer so I can set 50% as the max level for the mod wheel. Thanks :)

Btw audio-ins for the effects would be such an immensely extending addition.
You already being in contact with Chris, would you mind asking him about it?
Would even pay for an upgrade.

Yes, I know, just thought you two being already familiar it would be easier, cause no introduction, etc. necessary. Was just a thought, can do it aswell.

I moved your comment to the Radical thread.

I believe Chris also worked on the original Electro Mechanical ReFill a while back, still one of my "go to" E. Pianos. So I would expect similar if not even better quality from this - will check it out right away!

I’d guess he probably knows how many people are waiting for it to go on sale and he’s waiting us out. Either that or he’s sleeping and hasn’t pushed the button. I’m going to wait him out.

IMO the regular price on this is too low. He could totally charge so much more for this. It is absolutely one of the best sample-based REs in the shop and the best sampled Rhodes I have ever played.

Here is a patch I made. I really like keys/pianos where it feels like I'm sitting right at the instrument. S73 makes that so easy—it's so perfectly captured. I had a roommate in college who had a Rhodes and I played it all the time and using the S73 just feels like I'm playing an actual Rhodes.

I'm in my studio tomorrow. Can't wait to throw my RD150 hammer-action keys at this.
