Key Features
The Rhodes Pianology is a collection of three stunningly accurate sampled virtual pianos. Included with Rhodes Pianology are three rare and revered instruments at your fingertips including an American Model D Grand, vintage Japanese electric grand and handmade Japanese upright piano. Prepared, tuned and sampled meticulously by Rhodes engineers, these pianos bring rich, detailed sound with dynamic expression, onboard effects and customisation to bring the sound of world-class instruments to your DAW.
Global controls such as Timbre Shift, Mechanical Noise, Global Tune, and Lid Position (grand only) let you fine-tune realism and overall character. The Timbre Shift control is particularly flexible, allowing you to reshape brightness and weight to suit different genres and mix spaces. A dedicated preamp with volume and drive, three-band EQ with sweepable mid, and a piano-voiced compressor give you precise control over dynamics and tone. Reverb options are tailored to each instrument, including Stage, Arena, Room, Hall, Spring, and Plate types, so you can place your piano exactly where it needs to sit. Add amp and microphone modelling, DAW-syncable modulation and delay, and full MIDI assignment, and Pianology fits smoothly into any modern production setup.

Global controls make it easy to tailor each piano to your needs — from subtle refinements to more noticeable tonal shifts. Timbre Shift adjusts the overall character, letting you move between brighter, more open sounds and darker, more restrained textures. Mechanical Noise adds or reduces the physical detail of the instrument, while Global Tune ensures everything sits correctly in your session. On the grand, Lid Position changes the sense of openness and resonance. Dedicated velocity curve and depth controls help you match the response precisely to your MIDI controller and playing style.
The integrated effects section is designed specifically for piano. A preamp with volume and drive lets you add gentle saturation or push things further when needed. The three-band EQ includes a sweepable midrange, making it easier to carve space in a busy mix or enhance presence for solo work. The compressor is voiced to control peaks while preserving natural dynamics, helping you maintain expression without losing clarity. Reverb options vary by instrument, with Stage and Arena additions for grand and upright, plus Spring and Plate for the electric grand, alongside Room and Hall choices for flexible spatial control.
Pianology is built for clarity and speed. Every module features its own power switch, along with alt-click reset and right-click MIDI assignment for straightforward hardware integration. Presets store all visible settings, so you can instantly recall complete setups or audition the same configuration across different pianos without rebuilding your sound. The streamlined design keeps CPU usage optimised, and the full library occupies approximately 14 GB, making it a practical solution for busy sessions where reliability and flexibility matter.
