But where should I put the rks files? The plugin doesn’t recognize any rks files. When I try to open the rks in the plugin, it always appear as blank.

Oh right, I haven’t seen that. Thanks for pointing it out, I’ll fix the info in the article.

Oops, yep, I meant semitone. Well at least I’m not the only one. May I recommend shifting notes using a MIDI effect instead of doing it sonically? Tho both methods are okay, just give slightly different results.
Still no fix on the website, but they added a new organ plugin in v0.0.1. :D

Add Pitch Proof by Aegean Music to your Fx chain and set it to -1 semitone will solve the problem. Other than this tuning issue it’s a great sounding plugin!

To each his own, indeed. On a personal note, I found the inclusion of the C5, especially being looped so early in the decay bit weird. But it’s like an old 90s sampled piano and playing with the ADSR I can see its use in a dubby reggae-ish style, maybe even à la Prodigy. So maybe it should be called Keys of the 90s. :D Anywho, why not, it’s there for you to experiment on.
The other samplesets are certainly decent and in a neat little plugin that has some handy fx.
My biggest beef would be the use of a new closed format. It would be nice to know if it’s in the works to open it at some point, or at least a converter from SFZ.
Is it me or the sound is sharp by a note? I only tested the VST2 32bit (REAPER 5, 32bit, 24bit 48kHz) so far, but a tuner gives me C# for each C across the octaves. Anyone else?

Okay, so those are just inferior versions of sample sets that have been available for a long time, right?

I don’t understand why someone would create such a redundant plugin, but to each their own.

The C5 is also called ‘Salamander’ and has been converted in various sampler formats before (Bigcat’s Kontakt version comes to mind). The original samples as SFZ are available on Freepats in glorious 24bit 48kHz.
The Mark I is available as an oldschool soundfont on Audiobombs as the ‘jRhodes 1977 Mark I’ by Learjeff.
