The Rhodes Chroma was a 16-voice polyphonic marvel, controlled by a microprocessor, with aftertouch and advanced signal routing and modulation. Unfortunately, ARP was entering bankruptcy in 1981. Fortunately, the Rhodes Chroma design was preserved by Rhodes, which produced it from 1982 to 1984, at the dawn of the new digital era. While it was a feat of engineering, the flat panel interface of the Rhodes Chroma wasn’t up to the task of accessing its immense sound and feature set. Despite its challenges, the Rhodes Chroma was a monumental final achievement for ARP’s visionary engineering team. Explore the heritage of the Rhodes Chroma synthesizer in our video documentary The Story of Rhodes Chroma, featuring exclusive interviews and insights through the firsthand accounts of those who stood at the forefront of its creation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Rhodes Chroma is a rare and exceptional synthesizer, with only around 3,000 produced by Rhodes and as few as 150 keyboardless Expanders. It is highly regarded by synth luminaries and is still cherished for its unique sound. The Rhodes Chroma was famously used by musicians including Herbie Hancock, Joe Zawinul, Jethro Tull, and Oscar Peterson. It’s also the source of the signature “wah-wah” chords heard throughout Spandau Ballet’s smash 1983 hit, “True.” \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRhodes introduced the Rhodes Chroma in 1982 at just over $5,000 and the Expander for $2,500.

This endeavor has been one of Cherry Audio’s most ambitious projects, presenting a formidable challenge due to the original’s complexity and the vast array of parameters it comprises. The result is an instrument that not only matches but elevates the original’s experience, offering an unmatched level of innovation and authenticity worthy of the original.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRhodes Chroma faithfully reproduces every nuance of the Rhodes Chroma with astonishing accuracy. Remarkably, it allows direct import of SysEx patch data from the original instrument, bridging four decades of sound design into a modern workflow. Cherry Audio has painstakingly recreated each component of the original Rhodes Chroma hardware, from its 16 oscillators, filters, VCAs, and LFOs to its 32 envelope generators. These highly modular elements can be selected from 16 distinct preconfigured signal paths, ranging from straightforward VCO-VCF-VCA setups to intricate configurations involving oscillator sync, filter FM, ring modulation, and variable or serially connected filters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCentral to the Rhodes Chroma’s design is an improved user interface that dramatically simplifies programming. Intuitive pop-up elements and real-time displays integrated directly into parameter buttons make sound design an effortlessly rewarding experience. All of the original Rhodes Chroma’s unprecedented modulation capabilities have been precisely replicated to create a powerfully flexible modular synthesizer-like programming experience. Modulation paths are configured quickly and easily using comprehensive modulation pop-up menus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"A glimpse at what was: a small portion of Chris Ryan's complex Parameter Chart that allowed users of the original Chroma to translate the hardware's numeric values into synthesizer parameters.
