Recording Notes
- The Rhodes was likely recorded in a studio environment with consideration for room acoustics to capture some natural ambience.
- The Roland Dimension D chorus effect is key to achieving the swirling, shimmering texture.
- The original recording may have involved some EQ to enhance the high frequencies and control the low end.
Recreation Tips
- Start with a Fender Rhodes sample or virtual instrument.
- Apply a chorus effect, ideally the Roland Dimension D or a similar emulation. Experiment with the chorus rate and depth settings to match the original sound.
- Use EQ to boost the high frequencies around 4-8kHz to achieve the bell-like quality. Cut any excessive low frequencies to clean up the sound.
- Add a touch of reverb to simulate the room ambience.
Recommended Gear
