Dyno Mod is based on a famous hardware add-on for the Rhodes electric piano in the early 70s. Sampleson tells us that they have recreated the effect to be used on any Rhodes VST/AU instrument.
A spokesperson told us, "The effect was developed to enhance high and low harmonics and to give a wider feel to the Markus 88 Spectral Modeled Electric Piano Despite this, the module can be used over any Rhodes VST. As far as it's designed to act over high harmonic spectrum you'll notice a blowing sound (produced by recorded samples) if it's used over a sample-based Rhodes."
In the 1970s Chuck Monte decided that electric pianos were cool, but they weren't really good enough for professional use. Under the name Dyno-My-Piano, Chuck took stock Rhodes, Wurlitzer, Hohner and Yamaha pianos and customized them extensively, giving them a better sound both in the studio and on stage. The 'Dyno Rhodes' grew in popularity with recording artists, notably Joe Zawinul, George Duke, Santana, Rick James, and Larry Dunn among others.
