I wanted to try something different. I put a filter in front of most other effects on the Fractal Audio FM3 (you use blocks and can place them in any order in your list of FX). I used an LP filter, with an input follower, so that as the sound comes in, there's a slow attack for the sound to come in and a slow release for the sound. In this way, I ended up making the Rhodes sound like a synthesizer pad. Maybe not something I'd do all the time, but I did like how it came out. At the same time - I could play on top of it once the sound was in to give me two sort of sounds (1 pad and 1 electric piano).

Let me know what you think.
