Rhodes Chroma by Cherry Audio

The Rhodes Chroma, a legendary 1982 polysynth designed with ARP, is reborn as a virtual instrument by Cherry Audio. This plugin meticulously recreates the original’s 16-voice architecture, offering 16 oscillators, filters, VCAs, LFOs, and 32 envelope generators. Its modular design lets you choose from 16 signal paths, from simple VCO-VCF-VCA to complex routings with sync, filter FM, and ring modulation. A standout feature is SysEx patch import, bridging your legacy sounds into modern workflows. The included Chroma Expander doubles your power with layer and split modes for rich textures. With 700 presets (including the original factory patches) and studio-quality effects, it’s perfect for producers seeking vintage analog character with modern flexibility. Ideal for fans of Herbie Hancock and classic electronic music, this synth suits sound designers and composers crafting everything from delicate leads to massive soundscapes.
