Playing the Rhodes MK8 at SynthFest UK 2023

I had the privilege of playing the Rhodes MK8 at SynthFest 2023 this year in Sheffield and had a great time doing so. It was the very first thing I wanted to see at the event, so that's exactly where I headed.
Having owned the Suitcase MK1 some years ago, I was interested to see how the Rhodes has changed over the years.
I'm a huge Rhodes-head at the best of times, so getting to play an actual new unit is naturally amazing.
The action is vastly different from what I remember, but the sound is still quintessential Rhodes which is good to hear.
Here's a little blurb from the website:
Optimising the iconic sound of the Rhodes piano, the MK8 offers considerable improvements in tone, touch, intonation and dynamics. All critical components - including tines, pickups, dampers and pedal mechanism - have been redesigned from the ground up, using only the highest quality materials and the very best in contemporary manufacturing techniques.
A huge thank you goes to Freya from Rhodes who offered to film this clip for me, all whilst talking me through the controls at the same time. She was absolutely fantastic!
