Introducing
Rhodes Wurli
Immerse yourself in the warmth, grit, and timeless tone of a true original, as the legendary reed piano – immortalised by icons like Ray Charles, Queen, Supertramp, Beck, and countless others – comes to life at your fingertips.
Introducing Rhodes Wurli – a faithful and deeply musical recreation of the famed 200A, brought to life by the creators behind the acclaimed Rhodes Anthology.
Expertly sampled by Rhodes’ world-class sound designers, the Rhodes Wurli captures every nuance of the famous reed-based electric piano, creating an instrument built for players, producers and purists who crave authentic tone and ultimate playability.
1974.
200A (64-key)
Released in 1974, the iconic 200A quickly became a studio staple, celebrated for its compact design, versatility and unmistakable tone. Its distinctive, bright, clear voice can be heard across legendary records throughout history, from Joni Mitchell’s Court and Spark, Pink Floyd’s Have a Cigar, and Elton John’s Bennie and the Jets.
Recognised as the definitive reed-based electric piano, the 200A offers a dynamic, expressive playing experience, with its tone carrying a unique emotional depth – warm and soulful at times, gritty and cutting when pushed. The 200A remains a universally loved instrument that still stands out in any mix.

POWERFUL AND ELEGANT
User Interface
Built on the same powerful engine and interface design as Rhodes Anthology, the Rhodes Wurli interface blends classic dials and retro-LEDs with the same high-quality preamp and FX modules synonymous with Rhodes software instruments.
With powerful features like Timbre Shift and Global Tune, you can deeply customise the sound to suit your creative vision. Timbre Shift lets you effortlessly dial in the character of classic vintage models, making the plugin sound like any era of the instrument, from silky ’70s warmth to gritty, time-worn textures. All of this comes in a clean, intuitive interface that keeps your focus where it belongs: on the music.
ICONIC VINTAGE TONE
VIBRATO & SPEAKERS
The Rhodes Wurli features a stunningly authentic emulation of the original mono vibrato circuit – a popular part of the piano’s identity. Meticulously modelled and full of analogue warmth, the vibrato breathes vintage soul into every note.
In addition to the Twin and JC amp models featured in the Rhodes Anthology, Rhodes Wurli introduces a new option: the original front-facing speakers. Known for their distinctive midrange presence and natural breakup, these speakers add an unmistakable character, bringing you closer to the sound and feel of a real 200A.
