Actually, i dont like the equalization presets! I rather like to have specific knobs for that..

Either the default first Mk1 patch or Nefertiti, depending on the song.

Somehow I always go back to the mk1 deep, I also like nefertiti, perhaps a bit biased since its my local jazz club.......

I also like the Nefertiti MK1 and the "old" MK1 as well. I have also been using the EP7 Tines Amped from time to time, although the "baked in" amplification in that makes it maybe less tweakable than the others. I've also earlier on been using the EP2 Suitcase -- partly because it sounds pretty much like my old Suitcase did :-)

I would love an unamped version of the EP7.
I find the idea of multisampling through an amp a bit strange.
Better amp simulators would be better :)

I'm not a fan of the "amped" samples. I load them in, and like everyone else convince myself they are the best yet, and then pull them off when it's obvious they aren't. The amp sims on the board are there if I need them, and since I usually play my Electro through a Fender amplifier, I don't.

I'm back with the EP1, as always...as well as the cheapo versions of the Wurli and Electric Grand, which I barely use anyway. The Nefertiti is too murky for my tastes. I've given up waiting for a definitive Rhodes sample from Clavia...they seem to have wandered off to the 90s with all the digital pianos lately.
