Solid Electric Piano
I don't usually write product reviews but in this case, I've made an exception because it's so good!
I use Electric Pianos a lot in my music and as such, have tried a few different plug ins: I own the Electric 88 by Waves, two Scarbee Electric Pianos by Native Instruments and now the Electra by UA. They all have different sounds and characters and therefore can serve different purposes... But I would say that this UA instrument is the most versatile.
If you're trying to decide on which Electric Piano plug in to get and can only afford one, then I whole heartedly recommend UA Electra over all others. Yes, it is more expensive but you totally get what you pay for in terms of sound quality and as I said before, versatility. It is the most customisable EP out there without a doubt, thanks to it's EQ, compression and effect capabilities( among others). You can use it to achieve any type of EP sound, basically.
My only negative is that sometimes, after a long period of time, the sounds will start to freak out - like stutter, and notes get jumbled up. I've found simply turning the plug in off and on resolves this, so it's no big deal. It's worth noting that this problem could be on my end anyway....
Also, the plug in is a VST3 so it's more resource hungry but if you have a good rig then you should manage just fine.
Bottom line, awesome product. UA are the best - my go to! Thanks UA :)

Really nice and smooth!

Quite the best
I've severals rhodes vst and i think that Uad version is the second best choice after the Rhode vst version of their hardware.
I've found a lost of dinamics somewhere....my opinion.
Otherwhise....good plugin!

Superb Rhodes Piano sounds!
Can't say enough great things about this plug. Warm, lush Rhodes sounds to harsh and dirty and everything in between. And the effects, wow! Great job, UA!

The Real Deal
This is the best-sounding electric piano virtual instrument I have used. It is also versatile and customizable. Thanks, UA.

I love it!
Some user claimed it loads slow, but must be his PC because it loads fine and dandy on my iMac with 64gb ram.
I love that it has many settings to tweak the sounds and the pedals lots of classic ones.. loving that echo plex pedal. I have an original one.
People need to understand that this in the V8 from Rhodes are two different plugins. one imitates the newer Rhodes and one the classic one.

Slow Loader
Rhodes sounds good but VERY slow loading and sometimes won't load at all. When I reopen a session I have to reload the plugin otherwise it doesn't load samples and no audio plays. UAD needs to work out the bugs and provide an update ASAP.

Like a glove!
I mean, it cuts through the mix without a lot of work. I love the effect options. Best emulation out there if you ask me. Definitely worth it!!!

Glorious - A Dream Come True
I've wanted to own a Rhodes forever but the footprint has prevented it. I've looked for the best samples, I've re-amped through my blackface Vibrolux with high end microphones and preamps, I've put pedals on them. Nothing has even come close to the results I get with this amazing plugin. This thing reacts to compression, harmonic, reverb and EQ plugins amazingly and subtlety. It just keeps sounding better. I can't imagine better results unless you have vintage mics, vintage pres, a world class engineer, an amazing room, an amazing tech, vintage amps and speakers and record through amazing converters. It just sits in the mix. Well done.

That soul
This piano has a tone and feeling that I’ve not heard in that many places the editing features really makes it stand above the rest it has resonance that goes well with soul, jazz and even rnb

Just WoW
J'ai déjà joué un vrai Rhodes mkI et je dois dire que comparer avec un plugin + touché et sensation d'un clavier maitre n'a aucun sens. C'est deux expériences différentes, donc laissons les différences là où elles sont et sachons apprécier ce que nous avons sous les doigts.
Par contre j'ai joué pas mal de simulation convaincantes de Rhodes chez Nord notamment, chez A...ria et d'autres. UAD réussi ici un sacré tour de force : c'est pas juste un instrument virtuel d'un Rhodes : c'est un Rhodes + un studio virtuel embarqué aux possibilités infinies !!
Dans ce studio vous allez retrouver plusieurs manière de sortir le son du Rhodes (comme sur un orginal) en Di, cab stereo avec repique micros, ampli lampe Fender, cabine Leslie etc.
Tout est réalisé avec les simulations, et le savoir faire d'UAD depuis des années !
Et je ne parle même pas des effets embarqués au format pédalier virtuels, dont certains sont vendu par UAD en plugin séparé (Chorus, Tape delay etc) ou même en hardware au format pédale. Et pour finir on a un rack virtuel de traitement pour caler le son au petit oignons: EQ / Comp 1176 / Modulations / Delay / Reverb.
La somme de ce plugin en studio vaut des dizaines de milliers d'euros...
Alors oui, le son de base en Di du Rhodes avec zéro traitement est assez neutre, mais on peut le personnaliser à souhait si on s'implique un minimum dans la confection de preset. Quand je vois ce que propose la concurrence, à mes yeux et mes oreilles il n'y a plus de débat possible. Merci UAD !

For me the best emulation of Rhodes. So cool. Love it
A. Selzler
The best!
Wayyy better than I thought it was gonna be. Best emulation on the market in my opinion
L. Ramos Gomes
Incredible!
Compared the D.I. signal against the real thing and the difference was pretty much not audible. The added effects offer a great range of tweakability. Probably the best emulation of a Fender Rhodes ever made. Great job UAD!

Wow ..
It's simply ' Magic ' _ : )
