MDA ePiano

MDA ePiano is a simple but good Electric Piano virtual instrument. It quite nicely emulates the warm sound of a Fender Rhodes, while consuming very little resources. It only has a few options, but it's all you need. Simplicity is beauty.

Back in the 20th century, plugins from Maxim Digital Audio (MDA, aka Paul Kellett) were among the early VST plugins available for Windows. They gained a reputation of high quality with low CPU usage. Several years ago the source code for these plugins was released (GPL / MIT license, thanks Paul!) and David Robillard ported the MDA plugins to LV2 format. Most of the MDA plugins are audio effects but there are also four virtual instruments: DX10, JX10, Piano, and the remarkable ePiano.
