Topic: A Rhodes preset that sounds like this?

I'm feeling a bit dumb... I'm trying to find a preset in Pianoteq 6 that yields the closest tone to the Rhodes in this video:

Suggestions for starting point gratefully welcomed.

That's a stereo tremolo with a squareish waveform on that Rhodes. Adjust tremolo rate to taste, right-click the Shape control and enter 0.15 for Shape and 0 for Skew. Perhaps start with "MKII Sweet n Dyna" preset.

It also has some chorus effect for sure.

This extreme left-right stereo tremolo was available in some (all?) of the Suitcase Rhodes preamps. It was sometimes called ping-pong stereo panning.
