No Modeling Here... This is a Real Rhodes!
Own a Rhodes, and you own a piece of music history! The Rhodes Mark 7 Active 73 gives you that unmistakable tine-based sound because that's exactly what's happening inside this instrument. Unlike digital models that seek to replicate that sound, the Rhodes Mark 7 Active 73's sound is created by wooden keys moving hammers that hit tines. We could go into great detail about all the classic "technology" under the hood, but suffice it to say - the Rhodes Mark 7 Active 73 gives you vintage Rhodes sound from a brand-new, reliable instrument.
The sound-generation for the Mark 7 is the same across the Standard, Active, and Active-with MIDI models. Within each model, you can choose between a 73-key version and an 88-key version. And you can also choose among Black, Red, and Pearl White colors for each. That's a lot of options! But since you're looking at the Rhodes Mark 7 Active 73 right now, we'll tell you exactly what it is.
This is the "Active" version of the Mark 7, and a 73-key model at that. In vintage terms, you can think of the Active like the Suitcase. It features a preamp with EQ and auto-panning tremolo to take your sound to the big stage or studio. Unlike the vintage Suitcases, however, there is no built-in speaker system (it's available separately).
Dig into this Rhodes Mark 7 Active 73 and you won't believe it's not a vintage unit. Then again, maybe you will - since its response isn't wobbly like the vintage Rhodes pianos you've played before (and there's no musty smell!). Offering an inlet to piano history, while maintaining modern reliability and playability, the Rhodes Mark 7 Active 73 is the Rhodes you've been waiting for.
