I'm looking for a decent Rhodes VST. I know i'm never going to get the sound of the real thing (my wallet isn't fat enough) but whats the best VST version out there?

MOTU Electric Keys is really nice and covers a lot more than just Rhodes. If you want something that doesn't require installing a 40gb sample library then I'd suggest checking out Lounge Lizard.

Just picked up a beat up Rhodes mk2 73 to restore. Will probably be while until I get her right but will it make a nice project and I couldn't afford a one otherwise.

Lounge Lizards is dope. no sample library. its an physical modeling plug. a damn good one too. reasonably priced imo
