Years in the making, the Active Series Preamp offers the musician a new level of tonal versatility never before heard from any previous Rhodes piano. A B1 B2 B3 B4 C1 C2 A. VOLUME CONTROL The Volume Control adjusts the level of signal coming from the output of the piano preamplifier. This signal appears at the unbalanced stereo and balanced stereo XLR jacks that are located on the side panel connector located on the left side of the piano. B. EQUALIZER SECTION The Equalizer Section consists of four controls: 1. LO CONTROL The Low Control allows the musician to boost or cut bass frequencies by + /- 15 db @ 100Hz. B2. MID CONTROL The Mid Control allows the musician to boost or cut midrange frequencies by + /- 15db as determined by the FREQ. Control. B3. FREQ CONTROL The Freq Control adjusts the frequency of the MID CONTROL. The frequency can be adjusted to operate from 100Hz to 8KHz. B4. HI CONTROL The Hi Control allows the musician to boost or cut treble frequencies by + /- 15db @ 10KHz. C. TREMOLO SECTION The Tremolo Section consists of two controls: C1. SP The SP Control adjusts the speed of the tremolo circuit. C2. INT The INT Control adjusts the intensity of the tremolo circuit. Pull this knob out to activate the tremolo. A blue light will flash behind the INT Control showing the rate of the tremolo. SUSTAIN PEDAL and ROD The Sustain Pedal is attached to the piano by inserting the bayonet fittings and adjustable push rod into the openings under the piano and at the top of the pedal housing. Turn the fitting clockwise until it locks into place. Only the RHODES POWER SUPPLY can be used in order for the piano preamplifier and MIDI to function. The IEC / AC Input connector on the power supply can be used with any AC input voltage from 100 VAC to 240 VAC. In case of emergency, if for any reason the power supply or the piano preamplifier does not function, a signal can be taken directly from the piano via the EFFECTS SEND jack. See section D. Please contact your local Rhodes dealer for a replacement power supply. H. ON / OFF SWITCH The On / Off switch is used to turn the piano preamplifier on or off. When switched on, the rocker switch will be in the down position. MIDI CONTROLS A B C D A. PITCH BEND and MODULATION WHEELS These controls allow you send pitch and modulation wheel messages to MIDI and USB. B. 2X20 CHARACTER LCD SCREEN The LCD Screen allows you to view all patch information and make adjustments quickly and easily. C. PUSH BUTTON ENCODER The Encoder Button sets parameters and adjustments. D. VOLUME CONTROL The Volume Control adjusts the volume of all USB & MIDI devices, totally independent of your Rhodes Piano volume. RHODES ACTIVE MIDI SYSTEM The Rhodes MIDI system allows you to control external equipment or send MIDI signals to your computer using USB. Additionally, it can serve as a USB MIDI interface if you are interfacing non-USB MIDI equipment. To control external equipment, like synthesizers or samplers, power up your Rhodes piano and connect the MIDI out jack of the piano to the MIDI IN of your device and/or connect your computer via USB. This is all it takes to make your new Rhodes Active/MIDI the most dynamic and expressive keyboard controller ever! Not to mention having the ability to mix these sounds digital sounds with the famous sound of the REAL Rhodes Mark 7 SPECIAL FEATURES 1. USER INTERFACE Use the 2x40 character LCD screen, dedicated Volume knob, and endless MIDI Data Encoder knob with push switch to control the MIDI and USB section of your piano. 2. EDITING: Pushing the MIDI Data encoder knob toggles between the selecting of parameter and editing of parameter value. This is indicated by a tiny arrow on the right side of the LCD as shown. If the arrow is on the upper line, turning the encoder will select the parameters. The lower line indicates that a parameter value can be changed. P1 1 zone channel < Z1 l 1 P1 l zone channel Z1 l 1 < 3. VOLUME The MIDI Volume knob controls the volume level of external MIDI and USB devices using standard MIDI controller messages. These messages will be sent on all channels and on all USB and MIDI Out ports simultaneously. 4. PATCH ORGANIZATION The MIDI system consists of 50 patches which control what which messages will be sent to MIDI and USB. Patches can be edited, renamed and stored. Each patch can have up to four zones to control different instruments on different channels. Each zone has its own MIDI channel, port and other parameters. This is especially useful during live- performance patch changing. 5. SELECTING A PATCH After powering up, patches 1 through 50 can be selected by the encoder. The patch number is shown in the lower line of the LCD. P1 l select Patch l Init Patch < 6. PATCH PARAMETERS Pushing the indicator to the top line allows you to access the patch parameters.

Passive simulation of the nonlinear port-Hamiltonian modeling of a Rhodes Piano Antoine Falaize1,∗, Thomas H´elie1,∗ Project-Team S3 (Sound Signals and Systems) and Analysis/Synthesis team, Laboratory of Sciences and Technologies of Music and Sound (UMR 9912), IRCAM-CNRS-UPMC, 1 place Igor Stravinsky, F-75004 Paris Abstract This paper deals with the time-domain simulation of an electro-mechanical pi- ano: the Fender Rhodes. A simplified description of this multi-physical system is considered. It is composed of a hammer (nonlinear mechanical component), a cantilever beam (linear damped vibrating component) and a pickup (nonlinear magneto-electronic transducer). The approach is to propose a power-balanced formulation of the complete system, from which a guaranteed-passive simulation is derived to generate physically-based realistic sound synthesis.

    DEEP BLUh E}OBEIY BFIOOM GREG ROCKINGHAM CHRIS FOFIEMAN 0HtHl\l ,'a' L f:,1;jjJ:,',,1 The music of Stevie Wonder left an indelible imprint on the minds of Bobby Broom, Chris Foreman, and Greg Rockingham while they were growing in the 1960s and '70s. Although all three musicians would come to focus on jazz as adults, ratherthan on pop and R&8, Wonder's songs were simply too sophisticated, melodically and harmonically, to forget. With Wondertul!, the Chicago-based Deep Blue Organ Trio's fourth CD and second for Origin Records, guitarist Broom, organist Foreman, and drummer Rockingham pay homage to Wonder with nine of his compositions rendered anew in the jazz organ trio tradition of which they have become among the world's most prominent purveyors. "Stevie was a huge influence on all of us," Broom states. "Most of my close friends were really into music long before I became a musician. I just remember anticipating his next release and everybody running and grabbing them up. Every Stevie release was an event, from Talking Book to Innervisions to Fullfíllingness' First Finale. That period in the early Seventies was monumental in terms of what he gave to us in that generation." Five of the selections on Wonderfull are drawn from the three aforementioned albums: "You've Got It Bad Girl" from L972's Talking Book, "Jesus Children of America" and "Golden Lady" from 1973's Innervisions, and "You Havent Done Nothin"'and "Ain't No Use" from L974's Fullfillingness' First Finale. "As" first appeared on the 1976 album Songs in the Key of Life.

  • Il-Fender-Rodhes.Pdf
    IL FENDER RODHES Il piano elettrico della Fender, il Rodhes è un pianoforte elettro-meccanico, inventato da Harold Rhodes nel corso del 1950 e in seguito prodotto in una serie di modelli, prima in collaborazione con Fender e dopo il 1965 dalla CBS. E' costituito da un piano simile a tastiera con martelli che colpiscono denti metallici di piccole dimensioni, amplificato con pickup elettromagnetici. Il piano Rhodes è stato ampiamente utilizzato in tutto il 1970 in tutti gli stili di musica. E' caduto in disuso per un po' nella seconda metà del 1980, principalmente per l'emergere dei sintetizzatori digitali; più tardi, ha goduto di una rinascita enorme e di popolarità dal 1990. Con artisti contemporanei, tra cui Radiohead, Portishead, D'Angelo, Erykah Badu, Chick Corea, Jamiroquai, Herbie Hancock, Steely Dan, The Doors e Stevie Wonder il Rhodes ha riconquistato la sua popolarità. L'ultimo modello, il MK V, è stato proposto sul mercato nel 1984, quando la fabbrica è stata chiusa a Fullerton. La Rhodes Music Corporation ha cercato di reintrodurre una versione dello strumento poi nel 2007. Storia 1946-1965: Harold Rhodes tecnico inventore fonda il Rhodes Piano Corporation e introduce il pre- Piano al NAMM (1946). Nel 1959, Rhodes entrò in una joint venture con Leo Fender per la fabbricazione degli strumenti in una società di nome Fender & Rhodes. La partnership è durata per sei anni con il modello commercializzato Fender Rhodes Piano Bass, a 32 tasti, versione con solo la gamma bassa del pianoforte, che ha rappresentato la maggior parte delle vendite. Il Fender Rhodes Celeste era una tastiera analoga che riguarda la fascia media del pianoforte.

  • Non-Linearities of the Mechano-Electrical Tonegenerator of the Hammond Organ ∗†
    ISMA 2019 Non-linearities of the mechano-electrical tonegenerator of the Hammond organ ∗y Malte Münster(1), Florian Pfeifle(2) (1)Institute for Systematic Musicology; University of Hamburg, Germany, [email protected] 1 (2)Institute for of Systematic Musicology; University of Hamburg, Germany, florian.pfeifl[email protected] 2 Abstract The Hammond Organ with its electro-magnetic generator is still a standard instrument in the western music world. The organ still fulfils musicians’ demand for a distinctive sonic identity with intuitive control of some arbitrary parameters. Bequeathed a heritage of some hundreds of thousands of tonewheel organs to the world, most of them still in service since the original manufacturer went out of business. The worldwide organ scene remains a vibrant community. A description of the tone production mechanism is presented based on measure- ments of a pre-war Model A. The survey includes high-speed camera measurement and tracking of the generator as well as oscilloscope recordings of single pickups. Some properties emerge due to the interaction of the me- chanical motion of interaction with the magnetic B-H-field. A FEM model of the geometry shows accordance with the proposed effects. A FDM-model is written and a more complex physical model having a special regard on the geometry and electronic parts of the sound production mechanism. Keywords: Sound, Music, Acoustics 1 INTRODUCTION Following the publication of the Wurlitzer and the Rhodes E-Pianos at ISMA 2014, we have a closer look at the unique Hammond Organ with electro-magnetic sound production. It is one of the remaining standard musical instruments in the western world of Jazz-, Rock-, Funk-, Soul-, Gospel-, Reggae-Music and related genres.
