The Wurlitzer Electric Piano / see a wurlitzer 300 here
September 16, 2007, 10:46:12 AM
hi Guys
I've just purchase a Wurli 300 , the model made and only available in Germany .
It's based upon the 200 model including the vibrato but fit in a wooden cabinet very similar to the HOHNER Electra piano ( same wood and finition and same grill cloth).
the sound is amazing , deeper , due to the wooden cabinet and an extra speaker located in the bottom part of the case .

hi all
member willedsmithmo asked me about mk3 working fine or not
Well the mk3 is really unreliable , the rhodes part is working fine but the synth part not . In fact the "synth" is based upon an electronic organ design with square
waveforms and one filter for each preset , for a very poor sound .
I'll put some sounds on my site in the future .
One problem is ,there is only one audio out summing the 2 different sounds , so you can't isolate each sound to give effect , and you can trust me that the "synth" need to be used thru phaser or chorus and reverb to be fine .
The split option is fine but of course you can't choose the split point .
The main problem is : if a part of electronic failed , you can't ear  the
classical rhodes sound , that's what happend to mine I've "lost " a complete note , fortunetely the highest D .
There is no option to use the piano as a classical stage without power up , it's impossible to acces only to the pure sound at the harp output , because pickups
wiring is different ,directly routing to the electronic .
So in the case of one day the electronic totaly failed the rhodes will be dead ,
because no sound at all ; exept if complitely rewired the pickup to reproduce the normal rhodes mk2 configuration.

I'M LOOKING FOR THE SCHEMATICS , THANKS IN ADVANCE .
