Introducing the Rhodes Vari-Amp Plugin, a powerful character shaping tool from Rhodes Music designed for keyboardists, guitarists, producers and instrumentalists who demand warmth, soul and authentic analogue colour in their productions. Whether you’re looking to infuse a single track with vintage mojo or bring cohesion and depth to an entire mix, this plugin stands out by combining classic Rhodes preamp heritage with versatile amp and mic modelling - delivering a creative palette that sets it apart.

Key Features of Rhodes Vari-Amp:

• Harness six meticulously modelled Rhodes preamp circuits (from the MK1 ’79 Suitcase through to the modern MK8) each with unique EQ topology and harmonic character.
• Access eight iconic amplifier models including Duo, 8015 Combo, L5, Rhodes Suitcase Cabinet, Rhodes Satellite, ACT PA and EXPR Combo - giving you everything from clean precision to saturated vintage punch.
• Choose from eight classic microphone emulations (dynamic, condenser and ribbon types) to further shape tone with studio-level realism.
• Dual-module architecture featuring separate Preamp and Amp/Mic sections, each with dedicated dry/wet blend controls so you can smoothly mix clean and processed signals for nuanced control.
• Integrated three-mode Drive circuit (based on the MK8 preamp) delivers everything from subtle warmth to expressive distortion and harmonic saturation.
• Versatile compressor with parallel mix and flexible pre/post routing, letting you smooth dynamics, glue elements together or punch with character.
• Global EQ and reverb modules complete the signal chain - giving you tonal refinement, spatial ambience and final polish in one plugin.
• Input gain interacts organically with the circuit response and harmonic structure, enabling deep tonal shaping and expressive results.

Example Use Cases of Rhodes Vari-Amp:

• A keyboardist loading a vintage-electric-piano track into the DAW, pushing it through Vari-Amp to recreate the warmth and character of a classic Rhodes rig.
• A guitarist seeking to add analogue grit and depth to a clean DI signal—using the preamp, amp and mic models in Vari-Amp to achieve tone that feels organic and rich.
• A producer working on a drum bus or mix bus, applying Vari-Amp’s saturation, compression and colour modules to glue the tracks and give the mix a cohesive analogue flavour.
• A synth or sample-based beat maker who wants to take digital sources (drum hits, loops, pads) and inject them with professional-grade warmth, dynamic movement and studio-style polish.
• An audio engineer refining a vocal or instrument track - using the compressor and global EQ in Vari-Amp to tame dynamics and sculpt tone while retaining character and presence.
