Going into Open mode, a more comprehensive editing panel is revealed: there's a ten-band EQ, plus a selection of knobs to adjust the likes of pickup distance/axis, impedance, dynamics, hammer hardness/noise and sustain pedal noise. As with their other virtualisations, Arturia have chosen to make the piano look as real as possible, so at the most basic level you get a photorealistic representation of the 200A with volume and vibrato knobs on the front. Running standalone or as a plug-in, the first thing that strikes you when you open the Wurlitzer V is how nice it looks. Sound generation for the Wurlitzer V software is via physical modelling, so you're looking at a small hard drive footprint and fast loading times.
The various incarnations of the Rhodes continue to have a much higher profile in the wider music world, so it's good to see Arturia throwing a dedicated spotlight on the Wurly - the Wurlitzer 200A, to be precise.
