Velocity response has very abrupt “stepping” between the rounder mellow “soft” notes and the classic growl of the “heavy” notes. What really ruins the experience for me is the growly notes are actually QUIETER than the softer ones! The samples catch some really interesting nuances from the tines and seem high fidelity but there can be a very distracting background hiss in some. I am using this with a MIDI keyboard that works great with every other well known keyboard synth for iOS. Show more

Nothing wrong here, and everything right. Sounds great, simple to use, works just as it should, and lots of fun. And the price is right. Just get it and enjoy.

iOS! fast convenient.

Far and away the best sounding rhodes I’ve come across on iOS. Heck I even prefer this app to most of the rhodes VSTs on my laptop (addictive keys included). Keep up the great work! Show more

A home run you can feel good about.

Nice variety of cool sounds.

Love the tones with this synth. You make it really easy to just sit down and play raw emotion.

The app contains beautifully sampled Rhodes Mark 1 electric piano sounds. The variety of presets are wonderful. There almost isn’t a bad cord you can play because the tones are so beautiful and warm. It sounds very real, warm and authentic. You can also adjust the setting to create your own presets. I use the app by hooking my iPad up with a mid keyboard and cranking up the volume. If you select “play in background” in the app then I can even open other apps like Music notes to read the music that I’m playing. This app sounds 1000% better than the Rhodes electric piano presets in my expensive name brand electric piano. I haven’t tried it with a DAW yet, but in response to other reviews which discuss problems using the app with a DAW, I have had problems with iOS apps from various developers not working as expected with DAWs (Logic Pro X & Garage Band). It’s a trial and error process, but you can probably find a You Tube video to help walk you through your setup. The developer has a You Tube channel. In addition to the great authentic sounds this app produces, it is RIDICULOUSLY AFFORDABLE!!! $3.99 is an absolute steal. Plus, it benefits charity and helps to educate young musicians. I love this app! LOVE IT! Show more

Has a unique Rhodes sound, colored with effects.

Very good app,.the sondslf the mechanics,and pedal are amazing,.and the price is unbeatable.thanks!!!

As many others have already attested to, this app is a beautifully well done Rhodes recreation. Sadly, when I use it with Cubasis as an AU3, it suffers from 2 major issues. The first is that when recording on a midi track, the built in keyboard does not send midi data to the DAW. This can be overcome by using the Cubasis keyboard or an external midi controller. It’s not a dealbreaker since there is a solution, but it is annoying as I prefer the velocity response on the app’s keyboard and it’s not always convenient to hook up a controller. The second problem basically renders the app useless. Once you go to the trouble to get your midi data recorded and your song sounding nice, you want to be able to export everything and share your music of course. So, you hit the mix down button but when you listen back, the Housemark track is completely missing! There’s no way to render your finished song, so why bother using the app at all? I don’t know if this is an issue with just Cubasis, or with other DAWs that load Housemark as an AU3, but I’ve never experienced these issues with their other apps, so it seems like it should hopefully be an easy fix. Please do so soon so I can update my review to a 5 star and get to share my songs that I put so much work into! Show more

Honestly the best. The sounds are perfect. It’s inspiring. It makes me want to create. It’s beautiful. Thank you for creating this.

Easy to use. A keeper

Such great quality and all the proceeds go to the music Dept at Morehouse. Love when my purchases go to a great cause.

This synth is so sweet and perfectly executed.

Sounds are authentic !! Love it

I’m going to make this short and sweet. If you can appreciate the beautiful sound of the Rhodes, then you will appreciate this app. It’s truly awesome. But don’t take my word for it. Get it and see for yourself. You won’t be disappointed. Show more

The Best

I’ve got nearly all the apps by audiokit and I think audiokit’s apps all sound so incredible. And this app is no exception to that, yes, this app sounds great. But upon stumbling upon this app, I wasn’t really aware what exactly it was. It looked like maybe another synth or something. The description did mention a piano, but I’m not sure if it was totally clear that this was going to be NOTHING but just one piano. So just to be clear: every single preset sounds like the exact same piano. The only thing about that sound that changes is the effects and stuff, but no matter what you change, it’s still gonna sound like the same wonky-tonk piano. Show more

I’ve played Rhodes electric pianos since the 70’s. They are a piano of their own! The House Mark 1 captures the sound of one. If you can’t sit at a Rhodes, playing the House Mark 1 is very satisfying. Its Bluetooth function found my keyboard controller right a way! No latency to notice! *** I think a bit more time in designing a velocity function should stop the “barking effect”. That’s tough! Thank you for my copy of House Mark 1. Show more
