I've had my CP88 for a couple of months now and am loving it. I love making layers of sounds and creating my own custom voices. I have been able to create two voices I have been trying to emulate for a long time....an LA Custom Model E Rhodes and the Jeff Lorber Rhodes sound. I have successfully been able to get pretty close to both, especially the LA Custom Model E Rhodes. (This is the one from Keyscape) This is a huge boon to any keyboard player who plays a lot of Rhodes. These are both BIG full sounds with real presence that will really cut through a mix while still having a nice touch sensitivity. What a joy to play! I'm 63 and still gig with my band (60s/70s/80s covers). Can't wait to use these on our next gig.

Hey Ron, would be cool if you could upload these to Soundmondo, so we all can try them on our CPβ€˜s. πŸ˜‰ Thanks!

I connected my CP to my iPad (using the Soundmondo app) and it won't recognize it. It says "USB connection is incompatible". I hooked it to my computer and it doesn't recognize Soundmondo either. Any suggestions?

It’s all in how you connect it You have to use a Lightning-USB-Camera-Adapter and a USB Cable.
Lightning to USB Camera adapter

I hooked it to my computer and it doesn't recognize Soundmondo either.

To run the computer application you need to connect via CHROME browser.

I did connect to my computer using CHROME. I connected from the back of my CP with the square looking USB to the back of my iMac on a regular USB.
I was using the CHROME browser...opened up Soundmondo and my CP did not sync with it.

I ordered the adapter and hopefully that will work with my iPad.
